Any new tunes out for the N51/N52?

Been away from the E90 forums for almost a year. Just curious if there is any latest greatest tunes for the N51/N52 platform.

Last I remember, Active autowerke and BPC were making tunes but BPC stopped offering it.

Is the AA tune still the same or is it updated now?

Haven't heard of this one. From what I understand, Active Autowerks is the way to go in regards to 3-Stage manifolds. That, or just a 330i flash.

+1....he's tuned my 3SI, then Headers, and I already have my MILVS tune from him waiting on me to get the time to do the install.

I have nothing to compare it with, but his work has been great on my car!

AA wasn't even changing the three stage RPM thresholds or switch points to the proper values. I saw it first had when Pete got a tune from them.

Just go to the StageFP website above and buy it. Will need a Dcan/OBDII cable as well (which they sell for $45 with the tune) and a windows laptop, that's it.

Looks like their current requirement is at least Windows 7 and you’ll need a usb for the Dcan cable, would just use whatever you already have if it meets that or whatever you can borrow if not.

They’ve got a detailed guide of the process if you’re using their software:
