Make sure you're sure that's actually what's happening to yours because M135i does NOT have the TCU torque limiter issue.

It seems this guy does not listen lol.. Weird thing that anyone who faces any problem with tune earlier was blaming rpm vs coolant temp limiter (which is set as low as 5500rpm) now time has come for 3/6th gear limiter

I would not be surprised at all if some guy with 6MT would come and start screaming about gear limiters

Yeah I keep telling him but he ignores it. He doesn’t have it happening at all

Mine still show 6.1? For PWG only?

FBO Stage 2 93. Here are some logs. Still on stock plugs, 97506's on standby. What should I be looking for to know if I need to swap plugs? There was wheelspin at the beginning of the second run.

Run 1

Run 2

Pray for Mojo · 10-09-2018, 02:46 PM

1st run looks good, run 2 has timing pull after shift but doesn't seem terrible.

you're 1-1.5 psi off from target and your wastegate duty is over 90%.. do you have a boost leak?

Possible, here was my thread after the CP/IC install.

Have read through quite a bit of this and tons of quality information here. One thing I couldn’t find exactly is whether or not I can run a stage 2 with only a HFC. I don’t have an aftermarket IC yet but have the Wagner HFC. Given that it’s getting colder now, do I NEED an IC to run stage 2 or not necessarily?

Whats a good number for the duty cycle?

im not sure, but for reference, i am typically under 80% for 14.8 psi and my WG duty is relatively level through rev range.

since your wg duty increases with your rpm, makes it seem like there's a leak. you're best bet is to see other logs and compare.. or wait for someone else to chime in.

My Stage 1 log prior to the CP/IC install does show lower WGDC. Check out the difference in IAT though

Stage 1, stock CP/IC

It could also be a PWG vs. EWG thing. On PWG it's not uncommon to see high WGDC values, up to 100%.
A boost leak would be noticeable I'd imagine.

Mine is EWG.

n55david · 10-09-2018, 07:59 PM

Yeah I'm above 80 and I hit 90 a little. I'm about .5-1.5psi short of my targets usually

What would you call this then?

I have no idea. BM3 need to enable logging of all the various torque limiter types which would help a lot in identifying it.

There are plenty of gear-specific limit tables in the DME too.

Pray for Mojo · 10-09-2018, 10:30 PM

WGDC is affected by altitude, judging by his log he's at some elevation. Mine hits 100% at times and the car has been smoke tested before with no boost leaks.
