So I'm about to tune my car in the next days and I'm still wondering if it's a must to replace the charge pipe to an upgraded one like ftp.
Any thoughts on that would be helpful 😁

Not a must for stage 1, but it doesn't hurt to do it to stay safe.

not required, but it is recommended to upgrade your charge pipe if you tune your car
i also have B48 engine, currently runs stage 1 BM3, and has replace my charge pipe and intake pipe with FTP

I’m B48/B46 with oem charge pipe on stage 1. I’m tracking mileage. If it breaks I will report back.

I've just installed the tune and it's a hell of a ride !
How do i know if i have the latest version ?
I'm all stock apart from the tune itself, is it possible to have pops and bangs / burbles ? Is it safe ? Any info would be much appreciated.

if there's update to your map, they will have notice "have an update" beside your map name

use OTS burbles, it is safe for stock cat

thanks, does all the other options i can choose from in the config menu are already on OTS by default ?

it seems i can't find transmission tune everybody's talking about.

one more strange resualt from tuning is that i can hear like a weird electric sound / humming noise from the engine bay - i think it's that kind of noise you hear when you're about to turn the car on and then it's supposed to stop, but it's doesn't... anyone knows what i'm talking about ?
