P-Torque tune

Chandon · 02-26-2014, 04:11 AM

Anyone heard of these guys? Apparently they have a tune for 125i that offers up to 270hp.. Not sure if they have a website but they do have a facebook page - https://www.facebook.com/ptorque?fref=ts
Pretty sure they're based in the UK. The tune costs £495.00 and that's about all I know

Here's a picture of their dyno results -

I have emailed them once. They are popular on baby BMW forums

The dyno result is good and probably attributes a lot to euro high octane fuel, maybe no secondary cat converters on euro cars.

Euro fuel isn't higher octane, it's just a different scale. Euro 96=US 92. Common misconception. In the US we average RON and MON together, in Europe they only use RON(the higher figure).

If legit these numbers are really good

Chandon · 03-04-2014, 02:02 AM

Yup.. They seen to get quite a lot of attention at babybmw.

andrey_gta · 03-04-2014, 08:56 AM

The attention is for diesels..
Only 2-3 members have the 125i tune.

Their wheel HP numbers are quite high, assuming that it is in STD and converting it to SAE, and adding a penalty for dyno difference, still gives a solid result.

They even sell a remote tune, follow their facebook or babybmw forum groupbuy thread

I'd like to see more than 1 dyno before I make my decision on such.

Chandon · 03-04-2014, 05:18 PM

Still sees some pretty tough results from what Ive read on babybmw. The guys who have it seem pretty satisfied with the tune, maybe someone on 1addicts can be the guinea pig

mike@x-ph.com · 03-06-2014, 08:35 PM

Lets see if i can get them to send us couple samples
If so we'll be giving it for free for some testing

Group buy definitely sounds the goods. Not sure about their refund policies and such, their website is pretty vague.
