BMS Stage 1 Question - Boost Leak?
Hi Everyone! I drive a 2014 EB 335i EWG - ER Charge Pipe, Megan Supremo Exhaust, AFE drop in filter, BMS Stage 1 Tune.
I'm not a street racer by any means, but last night I got gaped by a few cars length by a GTI at about an 80-120 mph roll on the highway (it was late, highway was empty). He was obviously not stock and I know those things can make killer power... but still. I wondered if maybe by tune wasn't working? I connected by OBDII dongle this morning and used the OBD Fusion app for IOS to check my boost. The highest I made this morning at WOT in Sport + was 7lbs. Isn't that suppsoed to be stock boost? Is my BMS Stage 1 not working? How can I tell? |

You need to be able to see boost target and manifold boost at a minimum. Also useful would be throttle position and pre-throttle boost to see if throttle closures are responsible for lack of power. |
