Sports display and tuning - Does it show real max HP/Trq?
As title really.
Was curious if the sports display changes it's max HP/kW and Torque readings when you install a tune? |

Seems like BMW has programmed it to show the "brochure" hp and torque numbers as max.
For instance, according to the sports display my car makes 94% of it's max power at 5000rpm, but it's peak power isn't until around 6500... The power curve doesn't add up with 94% power at 5000rpm either. Seems like the max power reading is adjusted to show no more than the official numbers as max. |
