Flash tune Vs Jb4
Hello Everyone,
I'm in the process of installing a Full Bolt On (DP+CP+Air-Intake+Intercooler) on my 2014 BMW 535i xDrive. The car has only 32 thousand miles so I'm planing to keep it for some time and It's already out of warranty. My question is regards to the piggyback Vs an actual tune, which one will be better and also might support a future upgrade such as a meth kit? I was leaning towards a JB4 but it seems like they canceled their fault code auto delete option (CEL) so I might just user a spacer and hope it will work or just do a tune that will fix the CEL. If there are any BMW tune shops you recommend in (NJ,VA,MD,DC) Please let me know. **Current Available pump fuel is Octane 93 and I'll be moving in couple of months where 95 is sold** Any advices from experience? especially flash tune recommendations Last edited by ka535; 03-06-2018 at 05:06 PM.. |

Bootmod3 now supports OBD Flashing and it will remove the CEL on stage 2 maps.

For anyone looking into BM3, I would recommend joining their Facebook group "bootmod3 enthusiasts". It is very active and the best way to get specific questions answered from the people at PTF (Pro Tuning Freaks, the developers of BM3).
This was discussed before, but I am not searching through all of it to find the specific quote. I can tell you from my own experience it works.

We offer both types.
If you plan on going with methanol injection go with the JB4 + BMS kit. Jb4 has a lot of really nice features that you cannot get using flash tune. If you want no hardware install and smoother power delivery, go with the flash tune. Active OBD flash is my first pick for a strong reliable off the shelf map BM3 would be my option if you are looking to fine tune the car with custom maps
