Pretty sure it's BMWs strategy to limit torque and protect the gearbox/clutch.
It was there when stock but it's much more pronounced now with the extra power/torque of the tune.

I'm still stock, but I don't notice this when I have traction control off (Sport+, DTC, or ESC off). When traction control on, it limits torque in a ton of places, turning the wheel tightly, starting off, after shifting...

But at the drag strip, I had no issues with bogging after shift. It shifts great at speed... as long as you're in DTC or better.

I believe removing the Clutch Delay Valve helps with this.... I think...

FYI...dropped Alex an email asking if I could swing by his new shop next week to get my cold start programmed out...he got right back to me and said "sure come on by"

sweet! Thanks Alex!

I actually find it more noticable changing into 3 and 4th at full throttle near redline.
I purposely try to slow down my 1-2 shift as it's too easy to beat the synchros and crunch gears.

I notice it in all modes, even DSC off.
I found especially frustrating at the drag strip.

I've done that, no change. It's a software issue.

MHD only just released a shift bog fix for the N54 at the end of August so I'm not expecting this will be resolved any time soon.
This coupled with the rev hang issue makes me think I should have just got an auto.

Now that have finally moved our office to a new, much larger building in Rancho, and now that we are settled in here I have time to get back on the boards.

On top of the move, we actually have started a very cool project that will be posted on the forums very shortly....a F31 San Marino B58 AWD Build. Pictures and build log will be posted on the separate thread for everyone to see.

Regarding trans flash. We have the trans flash running for the last 2months on both the F30 B58 RWD and F15 35D AWD. The difference in performance of the gearbox is just astonishing and we will have this available for our customers once its tried and tested well on the B58 AWD variant (that will be the F31 B58 vehicle).

Any update on your iOS app for iPhone and trans flash?

Vinnie Stix · 11-13-2018, 05:58 AM

Also interested in the IOS App and Trans flash

Very interested in trans flash.

@MissionPerformance I'm interested as well.

Hi I would really purchase the flash for the B58.

How do I load the flash file?

Does the flash come with the cable or do I get the flash software via email?

I have tried searching and emailing Mission in regards some clarity even saw all videos, seems like a bit of a grey area.

Thanks

Flash file is flashed with a cable purchased from Amazon. Once you connect to the MP server you provide the stock file to MP and they modify and upload it back to the server. You then flash the ECU (must be connected to internet).

Turbovite · 11-17-2018, 09:05 AM

Great , definitely gonna pull the trigger on this.
Just an enet cable then? There are a few available in SA.

yup thats all

rahlow · 11-17-2018, 02:32 PM

I wonder how the trans flash will be applied and how much power if anything much it will add. Is a trans flash a true power adder or the trans will have better shift points only?

yes, transmission generates power along with the engine for sure. you will see +30 hp easily.

😁 That would be great. Surprised there hasn't been any HPLP fuel pump talk if that's the case. One thing that makes me wonder is the other guy releasing a flash soon M flasher doesn't talk anything about hplp preventing his stage 2 from making power and I spoke with him directly about this. He said it wasn't an issue. 🤔. Eventually as we know more about this engine facts will come out on what u can and can't do to the B58.

I think it would be more on the tq side right? Cause all I ever hear is tq limitations on these trans and not hp.

How exactly does a transmission generate power? Please enlighten us.

B58togo · 11-18-2018, 08:51 PM

He's got one of those darn fancy, new-fangled internal combustion transmissions. Got its own separate gas tank and all, don'tcha know? Runs best on straight E85. Generates almost as much power as my new red start/stop button I just installed.

transmission flash will convert 8HP into internal combustion engine-transmission which uses ATF as a fuel when you floor it. You will need just to add ATF more often, that's the only drawback.

P.S. dumb question (how much hp will add transmission flash) - dumb answer.
