600HP 2020 BMW M2 Competition - One Take

[@TheSmokingTire]

About the audio: We boosted the audio as much as possible. Any higher and the ambient noise was also getting elevated quite a lot. The recorder is (and has always been) set to auto-compress/limit. It works great 90% of the time, but some cars (911s/flat 6 engines, and BMWs) have a tone that seems to reach the mic more than a V8, or I-4. So the recorder is "hearing" all this high frequency noise, and it turns down its sensitivity, making it hard to hear our voices over the engine. Editing 911 videos is always a nightmare, for this reason.

[@Mahic408]

The things flapping around in the back was a little annoying too, I know these aren’t your cars tho. Just fyi. Also great job

[@MegaFPVFlyer]

A shame the video isn't really watchable for some, but what were you guys supposed to do? Call the guy back out and say "hey can we do that video all over again because it was hard to hear you?"

[@tuurbow]

For the love of God, fucking shift! The transmission has more than 2 gears!

[@deweythomas6339]

The Noelle Performance Software on that car does not void warranty and is emission legal. What a game changer for Marc and the M2 Comp.

[@Tifosielia]

Yes it does. FASTA data will clearly show it. Any major warranty claim and your screwed. BMW just doesn't say anything unless a claim comes up

[@deweythomas6339]

My local BMW dealer says it’s the only software that won’t void warranty.

[@Tifosielia]

@@deweythomas6339 Every time your Vehicle is hooked up to diagnostic software in the dealership (ISTA) which is every time it goes in, ISTA sends back FASTA data to Central servers for every module. Only Regional engineers and higher can decode this data dump but some of the parameters can be read out from the car directly using a old software called Tool32. To give you an idea for the seat module there's a lifetime counter for every time you make a seat adjustment for every single axis, DCT shows the number of times each gear has been engaged over the life of the car, max temps, times over temp etc. this is just to give you an idea just how detailed information BMW has on your car, you're fooling yourself if you think BMW can't see the max boost and may other telltale signs the car is tuned. This data would only be reviewed by a regional engineer if they had to sign off on a large warranty repair, but it's up there in the cloud. ANY FLASH TUNE is silly easy to detect, now as long as you don't go blowing up a motor and need a warranty repair sign-off you'll be fine. They may have gotten CARB certified which means it's Cali legal but that does not mean BMW is ok with it or willing to warranty it.

[@deweythomas6339]

Interesting. In 5 years I’ve never had an issue with my M5 at the dealer. I’ll never understand how it works. Cool info. Do you have a Noelle package?

[@BAYAREAMX]

BMW does not honor any aftermarket tune warranty’s. If a tuning shop offers a warranty, it’s through themselves (ie Dinan) but has nothing to do with BMW.

[@louispadron3255]

I have this tune on my M2C and it’s absolutely fantastic... more than just an engine remap - the “drift angle threshold” for example has been changed (increased) the ABS - EDIff - Traction control etc have all been remapped to accommodate the added power... Noelle Performance FTW!

[@Robert-es9mm]

I would love to talk to you more about yours. I have the car and am seriously considering the tune, but there isn’t much info about it online.

[@louispadron3255]

Robert Aydelott let’s talk ! I spent the day kicking ass and taking names in the mtns today, My buddies F80 making 540whp gets absolutely WAXED by the noelle M2C - the diff software / MDM mode is cinematic- i have 6 BMWs and it’s def my fave sports car if not car period - it’s hard to beat the Dinan Signature II MINT e39 M5 that I have as an overall passenger car but it’s hard to beat the Noelle M2C with ANYTHING PERIOD - if you’re thinking about it - stop thinking and do it - Franz Hutzu - the writer of this remap is a fn genius - ABS was recalibrated after the car in the video was taken on laguna as I understand and when I took mine in for the map Franz was finishing the revision for the drift angle and MDM DSC settings etc so I had to wait a day or two

Every computer box with torque vectoring / management or /and unbeatable stability management feels like someone else is in control of the car (especially Z-axis rotation / angular acceleration).

It wasn't really clear, but that's very hard to believe. You don't get 195 hp from just a tune. Usually you need to at least do exhaust on a turbocharged car with the tune to uncork it properly. Even then 195 hp sounds like a lot without using race gas or modifying the turbochargers in any way.

[@keenanfitzpatrick9104]

And a charge air cooler, I guess. Seems like a lot still

[@deweythomas6339]

It is 600 on 93 octane. Wait for the M5 video

[@apexholland7427]

I'm skeptical as well

[@raymondsarvarian8494]

Yes all you do is the 1st stage soft wear upgrade exhaust and octane booster 93

[@OhDearBabajan]

[@atascaderoca8584]

Dinan makes nothing for hp on M2C so where did 200 hp come from?

[@zackklapman3569]

Noelle Performance Tuning

Pretty embarrassing how bad the audio on this one is, why boost it when you have tons of pops and crackles?
