vishnu procede and cobb accessport take a more pro-active approach to ignition timing. rather than ride the knock sensor (by running increased boost and the stock ignition curve), they modify the timing tables. this is really the correct way to tune a car. BMS products are normally just glorified boost controllers.

it's your car, do what you want, i just wouldn't be caught running a BMS "tune" on my $45+ f30
Bryce this post is disingenuous at best. You've been informed many times by many people that BMS offers CPS offsetting for the N54 applications for those like yourself that despite the evidence to the contrary still believe it is an effective form of timing control.
