A remote tune on a dyno could get you what you're asking.

Raleigh is basically at sea level.

Sweet thanks! I should have looked it up. That helps with my decision.

DAAAMMMNNNNN!

Edit: I bet his low end torque is vastly improved, but because it's an auto, you can't dyno that low.

Bob,

From a drivability and feel perspective. Have you ever upgraded the transmission tune or calibration file along with the engine tune?

I ran my Z4 3.0I Auto with the 3 stage manifold and tune for more than a year before flashing the "matching" 3.0SI transmission file and it feels so much better through TCC lockup and shift firmness. So much so, that I have been recommending the upgraded transmission file for anyone who upgrades their 325 or 328.

What is your view on this?

I havent yet, next time I have an auto car come in for a tune I can give it a go

Hi Bob, any news about a possible tune group buy? I've seen the same subject arise in another thread of the NA forum so there should be a good interest going for it.

Let us know
Thank you

I'm guessing this is for the ZF transmission?

[N52UNED]

Interested. (if I don't end up making a "special trip" to the in-laws who live about an hour from BPC)

[John@BPC]

Hey guys,

We are willing to start a group buy on the N51/N52 tunes for you.
These can be done remotely with the handheld tuners and don't require a trip to BPC!

We can start a new thread for the group buy and get a list going.


Here's what we're willing to set up for you.

- $50 discount off the retail price of $675, bringing the tune down to $625 + shipping
- Need a minimum of 5 customer orders
- The promotion will run for two weeks
- We mail the handheld out to you, you extract the stock file and email it to us. We send back a modified tune file for you to upload to the car.

I will start the thread now and get a list going!

Thanks guys,
John
