Tuned 340i vs Tuned Rs3 vs Tuned E63S

MY Tuned hybrid turbo 340i vs Tuned Rs3 and Tuned E63s, on the roll I wasn't making any boost, turns out it was because I had less than 1/4 tank of gas 🤣, tuner David shoup told me that the dme would limit power if gas is below the 1/4 tank for these cars. I had no idea and thought I was saving weight lol.

Amazing! What happened to the E63’s extra 210 hp? Looks like they didn’t show up for the party!

I don't think that is correct. Power is significantly limited indeed when you reach the low fuel warning (been there, done that with the missing boost ), but definitely not at 1/4 tank ...
Besides that - good video! ThumbUp

You're actually correct, the car was in protection mode we found out later on doing some extra diagnostic.
