That is unbelievable! if this info is true, BMW has a lot of balls distinguishing its models based off of software. I won't be surprised if they eliminate the n20 engine from the 320 in the near future. iam so going to check into this further. everything is pirated now a days. its easy to reinstall an entire ecu map if you have the know hows & if you have the original software (which we all do). that's what my last car had. I changed all major components on my stock hemi engine and pretty much fooled it into thinking it was an srt engine. it worked like a charm but it took me almost 8 months to really get the engine dialed into the new ecu parameters. you have to really monitor and know what your doing. if someone can somehow translate this, they would probably be driving a ferrari as there daily car and a bmw as there winter beater!
i wouldn't even want the jb4 to be honest...it wouldn't be worth the money if I could make 240 hp at the wheel. the stage 1 costs 400 and the stage 2 costs another 150. is 20whp worth $550? hell no. plus you wouldn't make anymore power on pump fuel. The stage 2 cant even do it now unless using e85 mixture.
to me stage 2 is useless unless you want to data log and play with parameters. and that thing has a higher chance of voiding your warranty. You got to connect and semi splice into your factory wiring harness! what were they thinking?!?
the stage 2 reminds me of Sega CD. The genesis was great until they brought out the life support system. they should have redesigned there tune. just an opinion. I still love my bms 1.
