We're getting a lot of questions about my crank hub. I HAVE done my crank hub, but most people who do BM3 don't have it done. We're making a video to talk more about crank hubs..
STOCK 1mph vs Bootmod3 7 mph 6mph difference from start. 43mph vs 51mph 48mph vs 55mph 68mph vs 81mph. 13mph difference at the end. Boot mod3 seems good in 2-3 gear in the video but the real game start after 80mph till 140mph. Again its not matter of numbers but the feel is amazing, Burbles are the best in stage1. Great Video 👍🏼. WISH YOU BEST OF LUCK IN 2020.
Hey Bryan. That's 3 happy dudes, right there.😁 Beautiful F80 M3, sir. I've been onboard for quite a while and it's been a joy watching this channel (as well as your family) grow through the years. Man, you've come a long way since changing exhaust systems in the parking lot.😉 I remember back then, you would say things like, "today we are going to..." and "we at Kies Motorsports", even though it was pretty much a one-man show. It was obvious to this viewer that you were going to make it. I remember telling my wife, this guy is a big thinker, has a great attitude, and he has a game plan for success, right down to the verbiage used in his videos. So happy to see business is good and you're doing well.👍 I don't comment as much as I have in the past, but I'm still watching. Just wanted to drop a few lines of encouragement and say keep on doin' what you do. Have a great weekend, brother.🙌
Yeah he is a pretty smart dude and has come a long way ..turning a hobby into a full time job. I took my 4 series to their shop in April 2019 to get an M4 conversion body kit installed, quad tip exhaust system, engine uprades and a stage 1 tune. The other utuber Justin Buice or something like that was there as well. The lead installer Cliff was a pretty awesome guy too. I enjoyed my 4 hour trip there and the crew did a great job on my car. I still love my car. I love the exhausts sound and power i have now!! Totally transformed car. Only one thing that was off that i had to get redone was the paint matching...it was significantly off and really bugged me especially cause it was front bumper sides and rear bumper i could tell every time i looked at the car and didn't even want to drive it till i twas fixed it. which i took to a body shop and had them repaint it all and added a gloss black roof as well. I never said anything to them about it..wasnt really a big deal. they did a ton for me so i could not complain. Im just OCD lol. Great service though and cool people. They did an excellent job. I may return back this spring to have them put some lowering springs on and a front lip.
Why cant you be close to Seattle☹.. I would have you do the exact same to my F80..Such a big difference. Great side by side tach comparison👍Keep up the great Vids!
Hey Bryan, I been following your channel for quite a while and I can see you growing everyday more and more... congratulations, excellent content. I currently own a F80 2018 (lease) and I feel so tempted to do the flash after watching this video. However, since is a lease I don’t really know if that it will be an issue when I take it to the schedule regular service. Let me know if there is a way to have it. Appreciate it!
wonderful vid. I have dinan piggyback stage3 which they said is safer than ECU flashes. However, I am intrigued with BM3 since I want to sound like the competition pack with Dinan exhaust. Would BM3 do that? Can you do a comparison between the tunes from stock to stage1 to possibly some tunes that changing the exhaust notes? Would BM3 be too powerful that I may have crank hub problems?
i'm not running BM3 yet, but i do have the comp pack and full piggy back Dinan exhaust and it sounds amazing.. I would not run BMW if you warranty is still valid and their is no guarantee that the aftermarket crank hub won't spin either.
Hey brian you should also do videos on mercedes too like the c 300 i had the old white bmw you had the 328 xdrive some lady totalled it so i ended up getting a c300
Would the Stage 1 flash also increase mpg with normal driving conditions? I know it’s a performance tune but I want to make sure I don’t increase my mpg for normal driving conditions
Way cool but.... be safe people......the back end on my stock 16’ six speed F80 walks all over the place when I get on it with at times, very scary angles and that’s in MDM mode. I’ve learned how to handle it, but not sure if these cars need any more power to the wheels. Just saying.
Can you flash tune the 2023 BMW 330i xdrive? I’ve read something about a locked DME. You can ship it to be unlocked? Must this be unlocked to flash it? Just purchased one and would love to know. The 2023 was just released a few months ago so there’s not a lot of info out but the engine is the same from the previous year.. twin power turbo in line 4 cylinder.. 16 valve engine with variable valve control double VANOS and valvetronic with high precision direct injection.
Unless your DME is locked from the factory, or has been updated at a service center and you are permanently locked out of tuning. RIP. Been waiting 8 months now for a solution that doesn't involve removing the intake manifold to pull the ECU. P.S. Can we get a high detailed video on how to remove the ECU? For those of us who don't wanna fuck up our brand new cars, and but also don't want to pay $800 shop fee to remove it. :(
Hey congrats you finally got an M car. Drop a few gallons of e85 in that beast and let us know what you think? You’re dead right, my F80 tries to kill me daily 😝
Is relocking the DME permanent? If i want to flash back to stock momentarily for a day or so but go back to stage 1, can i relock and then unlock again?
Great vids. Do you suggest swapping out to iridium plugs with stage 1? Is there a list of free included flash options with the standard license? Does the CS flash include suspension updates?
I’ve read you should change the plugs out every 20,000 miles or so. There are a few free flash options included with the license, I believe it’s $50 to unlock all of them. As for the CS flash, I don’t think bm3 affects the suspension.
Hey! Im trying to decide either jb4 or bootmod3 for my 16 340xi. Which one is better and more power? Also iam not really a fan of crazy burble sound. Can it be controlled with bootmod3?
BM3 100%. You have complete control of your burbles with it and it’s a full flash, so your car is fully in sync. Smoother, safer and more power 👍🏼 here’s the one for your car: www.kiesmotorsports.com/products/bootmod3-b58-bmw-fxx-gxx-140i-240i-340i-440i-540i-740i-m240i-m140i-m340i-x3-x5-40i-m40i?variant=18436801560691
SOME PEOPLE HAD THIS ISSUE, ITS COMMON. BUT GOOD THING IS BOOTMOD3 CUSTOMER SERVICE IS GOOD. EMAIL CONTACT ONLY. MAKE SURE TUNE AT DAY TIME FROM 9-5 PM . MOST OF THE TIME THEY REPLY EARLY IN THE MORNING.
