I think they have available since 2016 when they start selling this engine.

How long did you used the Ventura tuning box on your 330e? I understand both F30 330e and G30 530e uses the same engine, same turbo and slightly higher compression than the normal B48 found in their 30i brothers.

How's the behaviour of the car switching from electric motor to petrol engine when speed goes beyond 110 kph? Is it smooth (no sudden drop in acceleration)?

I use Ventura Box since November 18
The 330e comes with 420Nim and 330i with 350Nim.
After I install it goes to 518 Nim, almost a Shark

Much Faster, electric to petrol engine swich normal, but I always drive with Sprintbooster Sport or Race Option on, so for me the two devices at the same time it seems a M engine but with 9,5 to 10 liters each 100km

Would that be an overkill having both Sprintbooster and Ventura tuning box in the same time. Isn't both of them a piggyback device to fool the ECU into doing the required?

Well the Ventura powerbox is a mini ECU with different parameters than the original standard OM ECU.

It will connect Turbo Pressure 1, Turbo pressure 2 , Fuel pressure and Camshaft.

Sprint Booster amplifies or increases the amplitude of the accelerator pedal signal. It affects only this parameter, signal amplitude.
Does Not interfer with the engine management, only in the speed between your foot and the throttle response.

Thanks for the explanation on both

Hi Guys,

I had a BMW 530e from new and installed the BMS JB4 remap box, which takes the car up to roughly 320bhp.

I am looking at selling this now as I no longer have the car, would anybody be interested in purchasing it from me?

Many thanks

I have a JB+ and BMS I take that I ran in my 530e for sale. Super easy install and gives about +40 hp combined

Just want to share my recent dyno on my 2018 530e:

383 HP @ 5.6k RPM
578 NM @ 3.1k RPM

Done with DynoJet

FTP Charge Pipe
FTP Intake Pipe
MST Cold Air Intake
VRSF Catless Downpipe
Dinan Coils

Project A Stage 2 tuning

(when I did Stage 1 tune with BM3, 344hp @ 4.6k RPM)

Thats nice mate.
I just had my 530e remapped today with extra 79BHP - so total 333 BHP...lol ... i do not know if i feel it ot not..... the issue is that i am looking at the SPORT DISPLAY and it shows same as before..... not sure what to think .. it is rapid like hell ... but was rapid before too as stock..... i will not put it on dyno but should be some solution how to check .... not a decent app what shows 0-62mph as dragracer does not registed GPS lately ....
I would love STAGE 2 but no idea where to turn to ....how much was yours as listed above?

Sorry late reply, mate.

I didn't spend much. It's about USD 4k overall only. The tuner here might not be famous but they did a decent job
