Logging from your mobile device with BM3 without the OBD agent is a bit of a bear. You either have to tether your mobile device to your laptop via WiFi or log from your laptop, which is what I've been doing for logging. I am building my own OBD Agent from an RPi 3 B+, about a $50 investment, but it will be awesome to log/flash wirelessly from my iPhone.

I think MHD wins in this case as it doesn't require an interstitial device, even though they don't offer wireless logging that I know of.

Steph any updates as far as the new tune is concerned or are we good? Will you perhaps dyno the car again any time soon?

So the new build I have right now is bloody amazing.. (not sure I want to look at my MPG lately *laugh*) Nic has it dialed in really well, and my concerns about blowing my CATs I think was premature.

I need to pull more logs for AA again soon, especially if I work out my logging situation. I dont see another dyno before either 1) new DP and cat, or 2) local club dyno day on June 9th.

Nic called it a Stage 1+ due to the other supporting mods. He said it was close to a Stage 2 but with the stock cats in mind.

I am guessing but very likely.. looking at what is called a stg 1.5 tune at this point, with all of the addons, but still the stock DP at this point. Still looking at doing more logging asap though.

Yeah, it looks like our cars are similarly equipped so maybe. I'm thinking that after he gets his logging issues resolved and gets what he figures is a final tune from AA I might hit them up for an update.

I do need to keep in mind that its a lot hotter here and I'm limited to 91 octane gas.

But can you beat my 0-60 mph in 4.65 sec?

If so I need a 1.5 patch from Nic too

BMW DIY Guy mentions 17.8 psi,thats some power right there folks for sure!!

Great question on the 0-60.. I am going to try to make some of the track days this summer with a buddy. That said, SO MUCH of that timing will be me on the clutch at 6MT.. one bad shift and I will end up with a result that looks bad.

Yes, I pushed 17.8lbs PSI on one of my most recently logged road tests, with the latest build.

Do you have a draggy Stephan to test your 0 to 60?
And the run where you logged 17.8 psi ,does it show the rev range and psi at the same time or is it a short burst of 17.8 psi and then tapers down rapidly?

Did a quick pull after work yesterday to try to get some logs out to Nic on my current map (stage 2, E30). Using the performance meter in OBD Fusion (don't have a Dragy, and I'm on iOS so no Torque Pro), I pulled 0-60 in 4.66.

Probably would've been a couple tenths quicker, but I didn't get a great hook up and had a decent amount of wheel spin through the first couple gears (despite using LC).

Last fill up was 4.6 gals of E85 and the rest 91AKI and I had just over half a tank and probably about 75 lbs of random tools and junk in my car.

And for whatever this is worth (which may not be much), on a separate wot pull, it logged peak calculated engine hp/tq at 387/503. Obviously not figures at the wheels, and who knows how these "calculated PIDs" are actually calculated. So I take it with a grain of salt, but it's something.

Still trying to find time to get on a dyno and to hit up Wednesday Night Drags at Sonoma Raceway for actual ETs, but for now, this is what I've got. I'll be sending logs over to Nic to see if there's any tweaking needed.

Still good 0 to 60 times. If it were an x drive I can say low 4s for sure!

Very good numbers. 0-60 is all about traction.

I was able to get 4 logged runs this evening, including a long 4th run before I ran out of time and road. Incredibly responsive, DSC light in 2nd and 3rd, and even tail end wiggle in 4th gear.

Just amazing.. new turbo PSI record of 18.7lbs peak! My cat temp peak was 1601, so not climbing any higher which is good.
