Adding more horsepower! Bootmod3 Stage 1 on my F80 BMW M3

[@danysofoke10]

Hey Tommy I suggest every time you flash and it says “ wait 5 seconds “ turn the car completely off, lock it and let the car go into rest mode or “sleep” that way you will not get any check engine lights or error messages once you start the car ! 👍

[@TommyLGarage]

Juan Canot ahhh good recommendation thanks !!!

[@95lal]

He just has to turn ignition fully off and then start

[@jmciver767]

You should play around with the “Boost Reduction by Gear” function to aid with traction a bit. Try 20% in 1st and 10% in 2nd - still feels fast, but with better traction in the lower gears. You will notice a bigger difference in warm weather with summer tires of course.... Oh yeah, you don’t need to mess with the “Rev Match in Sport+ w/DSC Off” setting since your car is a 2017. That setting is for 2018.5+ cars that came from the factory with rev match in Sport+ mode. BM3 put that setting there because BMW still disabled rev match in Sport+ with DSC off - this setting defeats that factory interlock. Keep up the great content!

[@TommyLGarage]

Yes someone told me to try the different reductions - might give it a try. and Thanks for the heads up on the DSC stuff!

Do you run downpipes with stage 2?

[@jaydenroh1466]

@@TommyLGarage Yes, I run catless downpipes from VRSF.

[@davebuilt]

It’s recommended but not necessary. Mostly for the fact that the burbles are more aggressive in stage 2 as well as the catalytic converter robbing 30whp or so. I run stage 2 (non agg) with burbles off. Not as significant as stock to stage 1 but still worth it in my book.

Hey tom, i run stage 2. I highly suggest a boost reduction of 50, 30 10 for 1,2,3 gear. You can also do 40, 30,0 i read for the stage 1. You wont notice it at all but the traction will be so much better.

Hello Tommy, I like your posts, amazing, very useful for me👍. I have got M4 (F82) and several months ago I bought BM3 licence. After trying all the free maps I started recording logs and examining the results. I found out that I have some missacuracies in ignition timing so I contacted PTF guys who said that this is only a fuel quality problem. So I made a fuel test, I tryed all types of fuel on our market, only branded fuel from 95 to 100 OCT and the result is always very simmilar. I can still see the ignition timing corrections in range from 1-3 deg., occassionaly up to 5 deg. Dont you have any experience with this situation? Thanks, Richard

Yes it does. I actually ran the CS tune for many months, including a track session, and it was brilliant. It shaved 3 seconds off o fly lap time. It was not very noticeable during daily driving but I guess it still added a few extra ponies. HAPPY NEW YEAR !

I found CS+ to be a horrible map with plenty of nasty boost oscillations on mid throttle. The latest stage 1 map is leaps and bounds improved in this respect. Really feels OEM but massively enhanced. The best stock like map is the GTS map.

In efficient mode, you won't notice anymore jerkiness/stuttering, as the GTS trans flash will keep the RPMS low and change gears more often. With BM3, you can set the burbles however you like. CS+/GTS flash is the perfect blend IMO. Stage 1 / Stage 2 are great as well, just a lot more power.

[@leekindell9937]

Nice one good vid. I don’t have boot mod on my 2019 m4 but a custom tuner Litchfield over here in UK did my car. 568bhp at crank stage two with vrsf dp and aa mid. You should now get yours on roller be great to see figures over last time you had a rolling road.

[@TommyLGarage]

I’ll be doing a dyno run shortly

[@rustyred3791]

you mentioned mid pipe, do you need to remove the cats for that?

[@TommyLGarage]

Just secondary. You pass emissions with primary

[@ActivM4]

Have you read enough on this tune to know if this tune is reliable? I want the tune so I’m curious...

[@XzMuRD3R1nKzX]

So Activ very reliable. Search any M3/M4 forum.

[@TommyLGarage]

Yes. Very reliable. It only gets better.

[@scorpion9214]

[@TommyLGarage]

We did CS back then. This time I went Stage 1

[@johnyrosales5348]

Love The Car !!

[@TommyLGarage]

Thanks!!!

[@xXeFilmsXx]

On the stage 1 tune do u feel the torque falls flat on the top end, I have the stage 2 tune

[@TommyLGarage]

Nope. They recently improved it. Feels like stock just more powerful

[@boosted2.4]

Never heard a car guy say he’s annoyed by the sound of a cold start that’s a first

[@TommyLGarage]

I’m annoyed by it because it wakes up my family and neighbors

[@boosted2.4]

Tommy L Garage Haha I know you said it in the video I’m just teasin bro

[@christophersauer1939]
