I know there's been a lot of bad press about the Noelle Performance tune on the forum. Techmax Auto in Mississauga Ontario is now a licensed installer. I'm going to wait till my next oil change then potentially try it out. My understanding is that they have already done a couple of vehicles but I haven't seen any results published. Hoping by the time I consider getting it that there are more measured and documented examples of the performance gains. Attila is the individual there that runs the shop if any is interested.

It appears from everything I see that Racechip is only TMAP control? Maybe r33_RGSport can verify? That is pretty darn pricey for no EWG control for legit gains. It would seem JB4 has mega advantages if they are doing EWG/CANBUS/timing/fuel control. From what I have read, they are moving the EWG control along on the M550i platform, so that may be here for us soon.
BM3 says they are interested, but have no ETA. I wonder what's the state of the other flash tunes? |

By the time you are plugging more things than TMAP, might as well go to flash tune. Much2 better than 8 bit processor controlling multiple high speed sensors reading. Also, how do you know that they use the OBD2 / CANBUS reading for timing or fuel control? AFAIK, it is only for reading, not overriding or writing over the CANBUS signal.

As far as piggy be careful making illogical arguments about what they can and cannot do. MANY of us including me have run JB4 on prior platforms throwing out huge power for a long time. On top of that, many of us have run flash and piggy on top to get to the elite levels. Reading CAN signals is a big advantage for a tune. Obviously the stock DME uses these signals to adjust, so it makes sense for tunes to utilize them as well. Realtime monitor of timing specifically is huge to avoid damaging KR events. I am not here to start a flame war, but a TMAP piggy cannot be compared to a EWG piggy controlling boost with CAN capabilities. I am not sure JB4 is fully tested and released with their EWG N63R tunes yet, but there will be interest. |

I am not saying don't go with JB4, just saying that with that amount of sensors tapped, especially with slow processor speed that JB4 uses for years. With that, might as well do the flash tune. Much safer compare to multiple sensor tapping with slow processor speed.

RaceChip is comparable to the BMS Stage1 and JB+ tunes that offer analog only TMAP biasing without CANbus. For something inexpensive they offer a little bang for the buck but they can't even read the gas pedal input, can't compete with the smoothness and refinement of a JB4. For what they do though they are fine. There is a FAQ on BMS page for customers wondering about the differences. In regard to flash tuning it offers a few things not possible JB4 only but also leaves a permanent trace behind, so it just depends on your needs. The JB4 is designed to be fully compatible with all flash maps including the free flash maps BMS provides for JB4 customers who are willing and able to flash.

No mods yet. That is 525 to crank. I also drive wide open daily. 93 with e10 mix half and half. I was trying to be cheap the way up to Netherlands and used e10 and got 93 half way there. I did speak with Dinan and they will be coming out with a piggyback for the M50i. |

Ya it surprised me to .. i think it was the gas. One of the guys dyno his m3 with upgraded turbos and tune 520 on 93. He drove got 100 and dyno 567. So fuel makes a huge difference.
