Uh... wow, that was fast. How long has the B series been out? Pretty impressive they've cracked into it already. There's your answer OP. Go for BM3 once their maps are out for the B series.

Well, if it were just cracked, they still have a bunch of work to do. Cracking was the hard part, but mapping out the DME and testing writing capabilities is just as long usually.

Demand is high. And apparently the F90 M5 has the same Bosch DME. It would've been soon anyways

Demand is always high. Just seems BMW was sleeping during their crypto generation lol.

Seriously thinking about JB4. I have a silly question, does the ODBCII port need to be left open in the footwell for the JB4 connector?

I seriously love my 330i, but I can’t help but think 300bhp would make the love even stronger! ��

Any updates ?

Not for BM3. If anything big occurs, it'll be on the FB Page or Instagram. At this point, they still have to map the tables and then tune it, which could take awhile. Maybe 6 months or longer?

I have a dinan stage 1 tune for sale. Just recently took it off my 2018 Bmw 330i x drive. Less than 1500km on it! Paid it $1100 usd plus shipping and plus Duties.

Mind sharing the link? I cannot find the 2017-present 330i on their website

Ray-India · 08-30-2018, 12:04 AM

I would avoid all maps for the 320i atleast. Motor had a lot of misfires in cyl1-2 and post dealership visit showed low compression in cyl 2. looks like the mini b48 isssues have carried into the F30 as well..

RMMAGA · 09-05-2018, 09:56 AM

damn that wasn't long, what are the issues, low compression looks serious, piston failure?

what peak boost were you running after tune?

what do you think is root cause, detonation, because of higher compressor in these motors, or just weak parts?

looking to get my car tuned to obviously want to know more

MR1818 · 09-11-2018, 03:41 AM

Finally got mine mapped with PROJECT A and its awesome! Manage to get 288hp and 435NM. These figures are based on wheel figures.
Its a direct OBD tune and ECU doesn't have to be opened up.
Best things is that I get the pops and bangs now. Its just like a AK47 when u drags the gears.

WOOOHOOOO!!!!

hybris · 02-04-2019, 01:27 PM

Do you have any other mods? You'd usually not get pops and bangs without a decat(?).

Did they intentionally code in pops and bangs?

idontsave · 02-04-2019, 04:37 PM

Just throwing it out there that Gintani told me they have a flash tune for the B46/B48.

I'm still considering it but it's a bit pricey..

CapitaineBeaver · 02-04-2019, 05:16 PM

Personally i'm waiting on either the BM3 or the MP flash before swapping from the JB4 tona flash tune ! Can't wait to see those flash. A local tuner here told me he has a flash ready for the B48 as well.

I'm slowly getting more and more impatient considering that neither have officially been announced yet.
At the same time I know BM3 will 100% be worth the wait so...
