Even v1 will pull easily. There is not a single stock M6 on drag times that has gotten a better 1/8 mi time. The situation changes after about 110MPH where the M6 will pull easily on the v2 335i.

Shiv says to bump it up to 100% if your running the higher octane...

Are you sure that with 93 oct US(98 EU) knock could still be induced?

I ask because in Italy there is Vpower (100 oct) and a 98 octanes of another brand that is sometime the one I end up using (no shell station available).

I refer to this:

To your question, I am not sure, I did not test it and this is one of the things I would not want to test. It could work now and lead to problems in the summer. IMO some more torque between 2.500 to 5.500 rpm is not worth to risk anything. I think only a clear statement of Shiv can clarify.

The PROcede V2 is worth every cent, even when you don't max out torque.

If I would be with Vishnu I would discuss if it's worth to release maps that can lead to knock that easy. If something would be damaged everybody will say it has been caused by the PROcede V2. Nobody will say I set everything to the max even I knew it better to don't do so. A reputation risk.

Just thought id let you guys know so you dont make the same mistake i have made. Everything works perfect now that i used the settings that the map came with. I talked to the people at vishnu and they said if you use 100 octane or like the other guy using 93 octane or above you will be perfectly fine. BTW. I Smoked my friends m6 . Did the race 3 times up to 100 and i had 5-7 car lengths on him and pulling haha. Will post videos when he sends them to me. He was in M mode and very mad lol.

Where did you hear the 'click click click' sound coming from? Did it sound like it was coming from the engine or somewhere else? Was a very loud and definite sound or just a faint clicking? Also, you say it occurred above 4k rpm...was it a continual sound above 4k until you let off?

Are you 100% positive it's knock or could it be something else? Also, if one experiences knock often enough, what would be the consequences to the engine?

If the engine starts to knock won't it immediately throw a code if it can't pull enough timing?

I don't think so. The engine is designed to run on the threshhold of knock for efficiency and power purposes. Maybe if it had to retard timing a great deal in a small amount of time perhaps. - edit: just saw your change.

I try to describe it, I had it once with v1.47 being in limp mode already.

It's a very fast "click click click" sound coming from in front of you. Not very loud but the loudest sound in the car when music is off.

It sounds like for us guys in California who have crappy 91 octane gas, we can't run the V2 100% across the board due to detonation. If that's the case, is there a benefit to the V2 over V1.47?

You've at least got control over both solenoids with V2 plus the tune is improved. The boost should be much more responsive and you'll still get more power than before due to the tune.

[grkm3]

To the op,I would open up the exh and see if that helps out a bit.It looks like your running the v2 with the stock system.

Also what happens when we put in 110% across the board,will v2 take adv if we are running 100oct?

Sorry about that, I figured I should write out what I was thinking in my head.

Of course, you get the full V2 top power. Shiv's predefined settings feel perfect with the car, stronger than v1.47. Just don't max out the map's torque, that's all.

I see no reason why this great, high reving engine has to feel like the diesel of a dreamliner .

what torque settings are recommended though for 91 octane?

The recommend settings are the defaults.

So has anyone on 91 been running higher than the defaults without problems?

[jtecnik]

what is the default setting for V2 with 91 oct...thanks

[NPDAN]

Im starting to get freaked out by having my setting at 100% across the board from you guys...

There is currently only one set of torque-output settings, regardless of octane. It's:
"94.902" at 2500rpm,
"90.1961" at 3000, 3500, 4000
"92.1569" at 4500
"94.902" at 5000
"96.8627" at 5500
"100%" to redline

I don't think I have seen any V1.47 pull easily on an m6 up to 100 but i have seen them edge it... I don't foresee an m6 pulling easily on a v2 after 110 but I guess we will have to wait and see the videos!
