I really like the sound. Is it dangerous to run this intake or will I be okay to keep it on

You should be fine, plenty of people run it.

Aggression: 0.3 <-3.3
(Changed the burble settings from the highest values to the lowest sometime over the course of those couple months)

This is how it looks now lol

Just want to make sure I understand what you're sharing....

In Sport/+ you went from 0.9 to 0.6?
Same applies for aggression? You went from 3.3 to 0.3?

Right now I'm on BM3 burble settings (non AGG) but seeing your pictures is making me reconsider keeping OEM burbles.

Thanks

Correct.

Hey guys - I was having some HPFP dropouts on E30 so I scaled it back to E25. It looks like the HPFP is keeping up now but I have weird timing corrections on CYL6. What do you guys think? It happens sometimes on CYL2 as well.

What makes it "weird"? Looks totally normal to me.

The fact that CYL6 timing changes while the rest of the cylinders stay in sync. I realize timing will differ on each cylinder but for one to just change while the others stay synced up doesn't seem a bit off?

Nope. Totally normal to have cyl to cyl variation. Now if you did like 3-5 logs and every single time the same cylinder had corrections and all other did not, then i would say maybe check that plug/coil/etc. But if there was an issue that bad, you would likely have a misfire code for that cyl.

Agent updated to .40 but I'm not sure what changed.

Flashes much faster now. Last flash I did, was like the original unlock and flash. It took forever, probably 15 minutes or so. I turned down my burbles a bit today and it completed the entire operation in less than 3 minutes.

MHD users don't generally see these issues and their logs also look good in comparison.

So I tested kwik trip E85 and it came out to E75. So approx 100 octane I believe.

Still, it seemed to have improved timing and no more knock. Maybe on a warmer day it will knock again. (I figure ambient temperature must have some effect on it, right?)

Higher IATs are more likely to cause knock, yes. But you really need to be over about 100F or so before it makes a big difference.

Hi all - could I get your thoughts on the preferred method to flash Bootmod3? I've seen some issues reported by people using the iOS app and others where that's been fine. Most of the fixes seem to be downloading the flash file to a laptop and using a laptop to perform the flash. Just got my license and would like to proceed however has historically worked best. Thanks!

Eschmacher · 05-12-2021, 10:05 AM

The multi-maps for N55-EWG are out.

Laptop is historically the best as it has been around far longer. Any method should work if you have the correct device, cables, etc, and follow all instructions.

Is st2 e30 more powerful and fast than regular st2 93?
Both maps for F with n55 ewg. FBO, stock hpfp, lpfp, turbo.
BM3 does not ask for further upgrade for st2 e30 map.

Yes, E30 makes about an extra 15-20 HP over stage 2 93. 93 puts out around 350-365whp e30 is about 375-400 whp

Does it work with stock fuel line?

Kolianovskyi · 05-20-2021, 08:22 AM

And, can I use st2 e30 map if I mix 10gl 93 and 5gl e85?
