No there is no dp fix. I think you will likely fail (dp or not) if you have the MHD tune installed at the time they run the tests.

Subscribed for N55 with the MEVD1726 DME bench tune news. Can't wait!
WedgePerformance please keep us posted! I have a local guy with the KTAG system as well willing to unlock my DME as soon as MHD releases this option.

i have a 2010 335i with dct. standard apart from evolve fmic. looking to put down pipe on her soon and go stage 2 mhd. question i have is??

i have a brand new in box bms meth kit and 5 gallon of devils own meth sitting in my spare room that was intended for my old 335 which was fbo running jb4.

could i run the meth kit with mhd and if so how would it be controlled? I have fsb that would be used for jb4 but unsure how it would be controlled without jb4??

AEM Meth controller you can buy on Amazon for $150.

Tried out the e30 map the other day. Managed to get one log in. Will post a couple more when roads dry up. What are the things i can look out for myself? Total noob when it comes to these things...

thanks for your help.

what is the best map to use?

just stick with stage 1+ ?

will the engine only benefit from the cooling effect of the meth and no performance gains if i stick with stage 1+ or is there a similar map to jb4 map3/5 ?

i am standard apart from evolve fmic and bmw performance exhaust. don't think i'll go the down pipe route and they seem a tad noisy with the bmw pe.

with meth you can run the 95 oct map which will put your at or over 400 whp.

running this map, is there a fail safe for if i were to have a leak/ run out of meth on WOT like with the JB4?

also would i hit these power levels without downlpipe?

The DME is super smart, must smarter than the JB4. It will pull timing in the event your meth stops spraying. Also, most meth controllers have built in safety features also, like boost cut safety you can take advantage of.

Yes, you DO NOT need a DP to run the stg1/2+ maps. It's only a recommendation. I do recommend an upgraded intake filter like DCI. Stock airbox is restrictive.

I have landed a very good deal on a jb4 that i should be picking up tomorrow.
i will now make the most of this to control my bms meth kit as it has the fsb with it. So will i require just a back end flash now or can i run a stage 2 map along side the jb4??

also what is the best bang for buck air filter/ induction kit for the n55? i just had bms dci's on my n54

hz_diesel · 07-07-2017, 07:42 PM

Can you do a full custom map for my stage 2 hybrid turbo on 93? I'm having nightmares with my jb4... Sent a pm

Then you have a 335is, not a 335i, and it has a N54, not a N55.

The 335i was available with a DCT in other markets.

I believe this thread is for people who are working with Wedge to get a custom flash tune. JB4 questions don't belong here.

WHAT!!! Gotta sell the M3 to Americans I guess.

I'm confused, though. Wouldn't a 2010 model year 335i be N54 regardless? Or do they do model years differently over there?

Did you rectify the issues you had with the BMS intake? Is this type of intake the way to go for an N55 or just a drop in is sufficient?

Must have been super late when I wrote that... The N54 airbox is known to be restrictive, but the N55 is not the same. Unfortunately my last dyno I didn't run the stock airbox with the drop-in because I have the PI spacer plate and the boot on the inlet kept sucking in and caused a boost issue so I'm running the BMS N55 intake which has been working extremely well. I had a few issues with it early on, but I think it was too early in the tuning cylce. So both options should be fine on the N55.

I have a PS2 on my N55 and went from JB4 only on E30 to flash only on 91.

My car pulls stronger, harder and smoother on Wedge’s 91oct tune than it did on E30 with JB4 (configured by Terry).

My car is a completely different animal, in a much greater way.

Im so excited to start seeing how much E my car can take with Kens maps
