Wanted to share some news with you guys

New OBD Agent is out and in this release we enhanced flashing and took quick flashes and unlock times further down.

Current BM3 flash stats:

Total flash time to switch map = 36secs. That includes 5secs to run a preconditions check on the car to make sure its ready to flash (some tools either skip this entirely or do a very basic battery voltage check), 25secs to do the actual flash, and 6secs to recode to the DME (some tools require you to do this after flashing manually).

The very first flash on a car that hasn't been tuned takes 3mins 30secs start to finish

For reference, some other tools take 20mins with a special cable (50mins with a basic cable) for the very first flash and 2.5-5mins to switch a map. On dual DME cars flash times are doubled. In addition to that some tools require coding data to be managed and flashed separately from flashing the DME as a secondary step.

bootmod3 always uses your factory OEM software version and tunes with it and activation is instant at the time of checkout after which you simply activate with your license key, pick an OTS map, flash and go.

Version 0.010.032 of the OBD Agent is now out and the update will be automatically downloaded on your next run of the agent.

Have a great weekend!

I just flashed to update my stage 1 map and it took almost 4 minutes. I am running the latest client version.

Try again maybe your agent is new and needed to run full flash first or something. I had that when I switched laptops too.
