BM3 Stage 0+ vs MPPK

I know, why do I bother... Well, I want to try them all in proper order

I thought that the F30 was fast when I purchased it, I got used to the power very quickly.
MPPK added a little bit more power. A month later, I flashed Stage 0+ (M2), and I really don't feel any difference.
I would have thought that I would feel an increase of power similar to stock -> MPPK, but I don't feel anything different. I also don't spend my time between 4K and 6K RPM where this tune is supposed to shine.

I will off course flash the Stage 1 91ACN91 next once I am ultra convinced that the Stage 0+ isn't give me the extra HP.

M2 tune is more of an upper power band vs lower end that you want and will get with stage 1 so just go stage 1

I'm not combing through the Facebook group to find dynos that prove this one graph isn't a good representation of actual power.

stage 1 makes more power through the entire.ppwer band.

There is two graphs. I'll wait another year for you to prove it.

Lol what did I get back to

So we all agree stage 1 is the best for OP since it's better at the lower rpm bands like I said right

stage 0 starts making good power at 5k...
absolutely not interested in reving the engine that high. I do agree that stage 1 is much more usable even though stage 0 might have more peak power.

More power past 4500RPM. Sure the Stage 1 has more torque, Stage 0 is actually quicker.
