folks - i am ready to pull the trigger on this for my 2020 x3m comp. i am in the bay area, so any 93 octane will require a trip to a gas station that sells higher octane mixes (https://find93.com/); so i will likely be running 91 most of the time. what options should i select given this?
my thoughts: - stage 1+ - 93+ octane (or should i go with 91 octane given i won't necessarily be driving to the 93 gas station every other day) - eeprom memory backup - extra burble - speed limiter delete what do the cat delete and cold start delete options do?

i live about 10 miles away from 2 gas stations that sell 100 and 108. if it's as simple as mixing 91 with either 100 or 108, i don't mind driving the extra 10 miles to fill up. just need to confirm that this simple math is real. thoughts on which options to check for the tune? |

Add E50 for a tune that’s faster as others E+Bolt on tunes.

Alex/MP-
Are you able to work around the fact that tuned DME's are now throwing a tamper code when plugged in at the dealers? Kinda the only thing holding me back from a tune at the moment.

Since day one on B58/S58, we have been able to hide the custom firmware so that BMW can not detect it during a scan and that was enough to stay under BMW's radar. But in August, BMW started using DSC/Key/MGU along with few other modules to read out your G force acceleration data. They use that data to detect if your specific vehicle has accelerated faster then it was designed to. So now, as of August, no matter what type of modification you have (flash tune, piggy back, or jet pulling you), you WILL get flagged for tuning.
That being sad, remember that it is BMW's obligation to prove that this specific modification has caused a failure you are trying to fix under warranty before they can deny part of that said warranty. |

Wow, interesting that its based off of acceleration data Thanks for reply Alex I recently tuned my F56 MINI and its the same story with them...but I don't care/worry as much about that car if something were to break as I would if something went wrong on the X3M

Anyhow. The technical proof would be difficult to make by bmw. I can't see a judge siding with them on loosey goosey acceleration peak values. What if you were dynoing your car while on a trailer pulled by a Tesla X launching in ludicrous mode? Would they admit to violating your privacy to say it happened at gps coord such and such at this time and here's a front and rear camera pic taken same time to prove that's not the case? I'm a big proponent of « you play, you pay » so, so long as its for directly affected components and not a manufacturer sleezeballing out of fixing a dashboard rattle because of a tune... I'm ok with them knowing.
