I haven't seen one code with mine and I have it cranked up to 90% and I have been driving very spiritedly @ 90% for a couple of months.

on 91 octane? what software are you running/build date and do you have any other upgrades?

I've been itching to turn mine up to 75%-ish but don't want to throw codes.

Yes I am running on 91 octane, I also have a mid 2007 build with no software updates, so I am running pre 29.2.
I have checked mine on the BT a couple times and not one code was thrown. Except for my failing fuel pump codes.. but who doesn't have those?

Good to hear. My build date is 11/06 and my service records don't show any software updates (BMW had the HFFP replaced at 30K, so they may have done the software upgrade then).

I know I should just pick up the BT, but I have no experience running PC software on Macs and wouldnt know where to start.

The service report will state that a software upgrade was performed, if nothing of that nature is on there. They did not update your software.

And since your in OC, the new RissRacing shop has a BT tool that they can check for codes for you for a small fee.

SROC3 · 05-14-2009, 03:00 PM

if you're running 91 octane, you theoretically should not turn it up past 75%.

jayely1 · 05-14-2009, 03:03 PM

where do you hook the BT tool up to? and how much are they? Sorry new to the JB+ but sounds like I need one!

On the driver's side by the hood release, there is a little black cover that says OBDII or something like that. Pop that off and you'll uncover a plug (Onboard Diagnostics).

The Bav Tech plugs in there, and into your computer on the other end. It's very straight-forward. Anyone running a BMS tune (or doing anything with their exhaust/downpipes) should have this tool in my opinion.

Think of it as an insurance policy if nothing else.

Congrats on the purchase!

So, if i'm pre 29.2 and I pick up a JB+, can I run at 100% with 93 octane w/ no probs? (theoretically)

Are the dynos correct on Terry's website? They seem really high. 340rwhp and 360rwtq? DAMN!

Yes and Yes.

I'm actually in Santa Barbara, but maybe HP Autowerks can check for codes.

I don't plan on pushing past 75% on 91, but knowing whats going on the ECU would be nice.

Using the BT is very simple. It almost fool proof.
