Sounds like the best option is to find a reputable tuner who you want to work with, use whatever platform they use, and get a custom tune. That being said bootmode sounds amazing with the cloud functions. The fact it auto uploads your logs is such a cool feature.

I have tested BM3 MHD and MG flasher on my RWD 2018 M240i the OTS maps that better suited my car were the ones from MG. I live in a high altitude area(2600m/8500ft above sea level) the 100-200 kmph dragy test using MHD and BM3 stage 2 98ron map didn’t improve the time at all compared to the stock time (12.5s) while using MG flasher stage 2 98 Ron improved it by 2 secs (10.5s). What I could see from the logs is that MHD and BM3 always requested a fixed target boost pressure across all the power curve, which at this altitude exhausted the turbo pretty quick around 3500rpm, while MG flasher has a variable boost pressure target across all the power curve, so it really adapts to the ambient conditions, and varies the target boost psi. At a lower altitude (250m) MG flasher performed really well too, increasing the target boost psi and handling it dynamically across the power curve, resulting in 100-200 8.7s using pump gas. So in a nutshell I really think the OTS maps from MG work better in different ambient pressures. Last but not least, excellent video Kevin, very insightful… you’re really the man when it comes to B58 stuff.

I started with MHD on my 2020 G20 because I was drawn in by MHD+ and the ReFlex support listed on their website. I was pretty bummed when I activated my super license to find out that I only had access to basic flashing features, so I ended up jumping to bm3 not too long after that, but again I was misled by what is advertised, and I guess my software version is too new and CustomROM isn’t supported yet. I felt like my car was much smoother and happier overall on MHD’s Stage 2 E40 tune as compared to bm3’s Stage 2 E30 tune. On bm3, I encounter this weird oscillation when cruising with any burble setting that’s more aggressive than OEM, and for a while I would experience a weird limp mode-esque power cut when cruising in higher gears and I would roll into the throttle to pass someone or when I would shift at high RPMs under WOT. I’ve been working with bm3 support and we’ve gotten the cruising limp taken care of, but I’m starting to lose patience because now they’re just starting to take the “Oh we’ve never seen these issues before” stance when I’m sending logs showing what their tune and software is doing, rather than going in depth and coming up with a fix for the other issues that I’m still facing. I really want to go back to MHD, especially since now I know CustomROM doesn’t work on my car, but I may also end up going to EcuTek just so I can have more than just basic features, namely flex fuel.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but based on current pricing, MHD seems to be more expensive than the Bootmod3, not less? The base flash license itself is only $422, but that comes with no maps and no logging software. Add $165 for maps, brings it within $10 of Bootmode3. Which is still slightly cheaper, but you also don't get any of the logging capability, which is another $165...which now makes it more than $150 more than Bootmod3? Alternatively, Bootmod3 sells their license, with one map and logging software included for $595. And if you want a plethora of additional licenses, its only an additional $50. That certainly seems like better value for the money for me? And again...keeping in mind, that Bootmod3 has resale value....MHD, does not.

A question on ethanol free gas which I believe is preferable for many reasons. Have a N55 engine, totally stock, 20K miles. Although with ethanol free the octane level is rated as a few points lower, because it does not have ethanol, that may be erroneous. I am only interested in a stage one tune, and wondering if ethanol free is suitable? Realize its a conundrum... Brilliant vid and very useful!
