I don't know whats going on with Alex. Haven't heard from him since Monday. Its been almost a month since the install, and he had weeks heads up of my intentions to go with the Pure Stage 2 turbo and the planned install date.

I know he's a super busy guy, but man.... I'm starting to wonder.

A question about the stock turbo, there are issues with it like the N54 turbo ?

Are you doing any upgrades to your Transmission for it to handle the extra power.

Nice pics and congrats on the turbo upgrade!

I heard from Alex this morning, he said he was in a car accident with a drunk driver and dealing with all of that right now. All is well otherwise.

I've not seen near the issues with N55 turbos vs. N54 turbos. But.... N55 cars are still relatively young. Time will tell.

No plans to upgrade at this time, I shouldn't have any worries at my proposed power goals of 450whp/450wtq.

Got to spend some quality time with Alex 1 on 1 remotely tuning the car. Alex flashed the DME with the Mission Performance Stage 3 base tune. We're in the process of datalogging, revising the tune, doing more logged pulls, revising, repeat until we find the safe limits.

Its about to get srs over hurr.

What programming tool are you utilizing? Everything I have tried thus far has been throwing codes left n right.

Thanks in advance.

That on screen tool is a datalogging application, so Alex can make sure everything is within safe limits as we push one retune bump at a time.

Alex uses his own flashing utility. I don't know what program he uses to edit the maps.

No dyno yet if that is what you're hoping for. Alex and I are plugging away, getting together each weekend to do data logging and revise the flash. I'm in no rush and we both have busy schedules.

Alex and I flash the car frequently, pushing in gradual steps. Patience, I don't give updates for each flash lol.

The next major flash will be this weekend. I should start moving into srsbsn boost levels soon.

2 weeks no update?
Sounds like you'll be ready for Dyno or Drag next summer?

Looking good, I am looking to do similar things, so curious also what issues you have come across. Are you using PI or other supplemental injection?

Question about you Wagner FMIC. Any noticeable changes in your performance when you added that? I know you should be able to do more pulls, but my stock holds up quite well in back to back pulls with stage 2 flash. On my e90 with a pump flash the stock fmic is garbage. Wondering about your experience with Wagner on your N55 with JB4 setup, thanks man.
