1. ASS is "Auto Start-Stop" which is the feature you are asking about. The software can be done at your local dealer for free. Most new cars from w/ the update. It allows the car to memorize the last user setting. For example, if you turn off ASS and leave the car in comfort mode, the next time you start it will be have the ASS off (light on) and in comfort mode.

Coding is a term used for a person/shop who knows the BMW computer really well, hooks up a laptop to it or a desktop or w/e and changes some of the factory settings to reflect the ones you want. Check if Houston has any good BMW shops. They might charge you though.

2. Tune, seems like there is JB4 atm and there are several threads talking about it right now.

DP - I like the challenge dp which also there is a thread about it.

The numbers seem realistic. With 91 octane, my goal is to have around 330whp/390wtq.
