Can the GTS backfire/burble option be used on non-M cars?

You folks really need to find a place in TX, lots of potential here. I would say Dallas because I'm here and there's already a lot in the area. But honestly if you only had a single location I'd say Austin. That way people in Houston, San Antonio, and other areas would still make the drive.

Communicate with your local shop(s) to reach out to PTF directly...I'm sure it's PTF's plan to be widely available/accessible

Since most new laptops dont have ethernet ports, can I use OBDII ethernet to a USB 3.0 adapter. It worked to code my car albeit much slower than a direct enet connect?

UPDATE: We have decided to bundle an OTS map with all purchases of a bootmod3 license without any additional cost.

For those that require more than one custom map they're now: $50 for N55, $100 for the S55 and $150 for the S63TU.

This doesn't affect anyone that currently has bootmod3 as we've been providing the OTS map free of charge since the release. Website has been updated to reflect this product update and pricing as well.

If I were to get an OTS tune for 91. Can I still run E30 if I have the Jb4 along with it? Or does that take away my ability to do so?

Questions:

Does this work on MY15?

What would you expect the average hours in labor to have a shop remove the DME and put back in after programmed?

Once coded - if you want to change something like the tail lights to LCI and need to code the car for that, will that revert any of the changes made by this?

Best shop in South FL as far as I'm concerned is "EuroWerks" would be awesome if they did this.

Suggest letting your preferred BMW indy shop know about bootmod3 and we can definitely get them set up.

Yes. On N55s its about an hour to remove/reinstall. Coding isn't affected and won't be lost and you can apply additional coding once the tune is on the car.

If you believe they're a great shop definitely let them know and they can reach out if interested. We'd be more than happy to get them on board.

Someone's gotta have a DIY removal of the DME with pictures or perhaps videos. This is killing me. I just want to remove my DME and have it unlocked already!
