So got the car back yesterday.
Had a custom ECU tune and aftermarket charge pipe kit installed. Also had sports dials updated. Car is a lot more responsive. Kw power on the dials reaches 240 Kw Torque on the dials reaches 450 Nm Definitely doesn’t feel like a 4cyl anymore.

Just picked up a 2020 530i Msport and was curious if the bootmod 3 tune can be turned off and on if I had to take it in for service or is it just never a good idea to tune under warranty? Not sure if the dealer can tell if there was ever a tune installed whether its on or not.

If you have a late model ECU it can be locked in which case the guys at DME can ot remotely tune it. There are ways to find out if you have a locked DME, something you best know before ordering stuff. |

Mine a 530e running with 383hp and 578Nm for few months already. If not mistaken, only running on 18psi. (I forgot but the tuner is stubbornly keep it safe he say). Did a trial run of about 4.5sec for 0-100kph
Only few things I did: Dinan B Series Ignition Coils FTP Charge Pipe and Short Intake Pipe MST filter (sounds good) Snowtech Heat exchanger VRSF Catless downpipe Tuning by Project A (Malaysia) Amsoil full set (gear, engine, axle) M340i brakes (make sure can stop better lol) Its so much fun to drive compared to normal and the top speed did touch close to 300. Never tried max. I'm getting old.... |

I am going the whole IPOS 450 route, the includes new turbo, intake manifold, etc. With the price of what I paid for the car, it’s still cheaper than a stock 540i.
Funny thing is from what I seen, most 540 owners barely do FBOs on this forum. I will easily push 450whp and the b48 will hold. |
