I bought the Evolve tune ! What to expect ?

Anyone i have ever contacted at evolve has always answered me within 3 days, usually within a couple hours of when i first sent it. Send them another email/PM Them on here. They've answered both quickly in my experience.

They've been spot on with me.

However, today, I received another OBD Evolve-R plug in the mail.

LOL. That's a brain buster.

Hopefully you don't get the same run around treatment that I've been receiving.

Some guy from down under did a before/after dyno pull with their 125i.

125i Evolve R Tune (Dyno inside)

Impressive stuff, almost 20% gains without even giving the R-tune an inch to adapt.

3 more whp than a 130i on the same dyno BEFORE it had a chance to adapt (adapting further increases power). Should easily be at 270 crank before headers with the evolve tune

Exactly. Which I've been saying since day one.

The 125i has the DISA already, correct?

631twentyeighteye · 12-13-2013, 03:28 PM

Correct.

Just not activated.

Here's a dyno from a UK Evolve tune hitting 250 and not the same power as a 130 as hoped

Apparently Evolve have a "conservative" dyno though

Which is from the compromised exhaust on the 125i as compared to the 130i. Looks good.

Ben GT · 12-16-2013, 07:02 AM

Where is the exhaust compromised?
