If you want the flash route, I'm using mission performance stage 2 and it's fantastic. |

Is mission tuning meeting your expectations since you had it on your 340i? I love mine. Putting bastuck exhaust next week, have it on order for about 1 month, due to Corona is taking much longer for delivery. Sorry op for thread hijack. As I said before, if you try Mission performance stage 2 you will never go back. The car retains all the stock personality, very smooth to drive, but extremely powerful. Hope I can help you decide. |

Does Bastuck ship to US? Interested in hearing that exhaust[/QUOTE] I'm not sure, but you can ask them if they have any vendors on the US. I've bought mine without listening it, just on YouTube. Hope I'll like it, but here in Europe we just have bastuck and einsenmann at the moment. |

To answer your question, "hell yes" Mission Performance is meeting all my expectations I think this is car 5 or 6 for me tuned with Mission Performance. And in typical MP fashion the cars day to day drive-ability is darn near like stock however the car simply pulls like a freight train in a perfectly linear fashion. No peaks, no valleys, no spikes, no drop offs - just like a jet taking off. It's as if I checked the factory option box from BMW for more power on my cars build. I'm really impressed by the second gen B58 that comes in these M340's. While I adore the original B58 the current B58TU motor is simply better in many respects. And the marriage of the B58TU and Mission Performance seems to be a marriage made in heaven. Yes I am a huge Mission Performance fan - many know that by now. But it's for very good reason (here comes my shameless but honest and objective plug hahaha) ps- as I've shared before (for those that don't know). When Toyota Global Corp needed someone to tune their very own B58 equipped Supra TRD - with the world watching and their reputation on the line...they hired Alex (owner - chief tech guy @ MP) and flew him out to Texas to tune their car. Yes MP is that good :-) Last edited by chenry; 06-05-2020 at 01:23 PM.. |

I'm also running MP stage 2 on my car.
My car is a daily driver with me putting on it 70 miles a day. So far I put 2000 miles since the tune went in - no issues whatsoever. The car is very quick. The pull is quite impressive, haha. The shitty CA gas does dumb down the power but if you put 3 gallons of E85 on a full tank, that stage 2 tune becomes savage. With all that extra power I still get a combined 26 MPG. One day I did a long drive of 200 miles all of which were highway. Decided to experiment and put the car in eco pro mode and set the speed at 75 mph. Averaged 31 MPG!!! Go and try find a car that has around 500 hp (crank and with MP stage 2) on tap and is this economical! |

412motorsport is acually starting a high hp build with the M340i with all the goodies, so it should provide a good benchmark to what you can accomplish with these cars.

That said do they offer anything that is applicable to OPs situation such as their own remote tune/flash services (like BM3, PTF, Mission Performance etc) or a Piggyback (like Burger, Dinan, Race Chip etc)? Thanks! ps- would be cool for them to start a build thread that we can follow (but if they are not a sponsor that might be considered advertising so maybe they can't??)

It really comes down to whether or not you want to reflash the car. For those under warranty who are avoiding flashing the JB4 is the only way to go. And for those who have decided to flash they've got some nice JB4 BEF maps that are MHD compatible including ones for straight E85 to take advantage of the factory TU high pressure pump.

BM3 all day long! Easy and simple to install. Great options to choose out of the box...ie...quicker shifter, burbles, etc.
I've had JB4 in the past...uhh...flash tune is the way to go these days. Stage 1 with basically a stock set up and on 93 I dynoed 370HP/390tq to the crank. In a M235i , N55....its pretty fast. Can't imagine what Stage 2 is like. I'll need a bigger boat for that. |

I've noticed that under WOT when shifting to 3rd, the M340 kinda starts to noticeably slow down compared to the rapid 1st/2nd gears. I'm guessing the additional power and quick shift from BM3/MP changes this and gives it more life at higher speeds?
Love this car but have noticed this is where something like an F80 would start pulling on it hard. Still undecided about a tune- thinking I'd go for a piggy if anything

If you put your car back to stock before dealer visit you should be fine. As with all the tunes, even if a piggyback, if the dealer digs into your logs they will be able to know if your car was tuned. |
