Wow this blew up, thank you for the replies! This isn’t a sob story, grateful I have the opportunity to have the Supra, I didn’t come from means and believe that’s why I’m struggling to justify it as “enough” from a financial/emotional but it isn’t hitting the mark in the technical/logistical...

**edit* didn’t realize you said C8 C8 only comes in a dual clutch, sadge. Considered a C7Z, unfortunately they have cooling issues due to very low frontal area. It’s not out of the cards though!

I have three. Can’t share a 200+whp land missile with a passenger like you can a car.

@BraveDemon and @SuupYota hit me in the feels. It’s a damn shame but I’ve been in denial the past year that it just isn’t exciting for me and really wish I could turn it into what I want instead of having to move on. Much love! <3 I also have some self-loathing because it’s a Camaro and it...

I appreciate the info, I’m well read on the B58 and what is possible, I’m almost hoping it’s something that it really isn’t. A top mount that makes 700-800 on 93oct is a lag fest in a car that already has a low rev limit. The charge volume and timing of ethanol is what really makes the B58 hang...

I would be interested to hear as well, a shame it seems like there aren’t gains on the fuel lobe for gen2 B58 cams. Second question if anyone does have a cam, have you pushed the revs up? 7600-8000 would be interesting and make it sound more 2J.

Hey fam I'm at a crossroads and want to get some input before I make a decision. 2021 locked and stock, I'm coming up on 36,000 painless miles. I enjoy the small and light chassis, it turns heads. I don't drag race and haven't tracked. I take the bikes to Palmer and NHMS occasionally so...

Relatively inexpensive to get a South Dakota license to register your cars there. Never mess with inspections and stop paying insane excise taxes too.

Just checked https://europerformancecenter.com/products/performance-tune-for-2020-bmws?variant=44735718654234 and its $2,200 including BM3. The only savings left is waiting for this to be stateside, I wouldn’t hold your breath though. I’ll be doing mine this winter, I’m not interested in...

Thanks!

Exciting, I will be taking the car down for winter and doing this along with a hybrid will be going on. For us 06/20+ locked that can now do bm3 customROM does that mean we can do port injection now also? Looking for factory like performance or is that still limited to ecutek folks?

I pulled the fuse with the exhaust valve open and then set “Sport Individual””Engine - Normal.This is the best of both worlds! There is no performance benefit to “Engine - Sport,” “Engine - Normal” has the linear pedal map. This setup has the refined exhaust note of the open valve without the...

Like this! Depends on severity. I keep it clean regularly so I just use the same shampoo as the paint. Add degreaser via spray bottle on tough spots and let sit for a minute. Agitate gently with a soft bristle brushes to move crap out of hard to rinse spots. Do not apply cleaning products on...

At least he has brains. I doubled down and bought something actually fast, a motorcycle. I’ll likely be dead before the ecu is cracked but I was tired of waiting to go fast!

Congratulations! You won’t have excess oil consumption due to blow-by now! Very important to let things warm up correctly, that doesn’t mean you should drive it hard the first few miles.

Time spent above a given rpm is a function of maximum rpm. Time spent above 7,000 when you have 9,000rpm? Every time you accelerate heavily. While my car spends most of its life below half revs, I bought it to be exciting which is a function of rpm. Can you short shift the tractor with enough...

S58 is a racing engine compared to the B58 tractor engine. Revs matter and in time we will have 9,000 rpm S58 when the B58 tractor won’t push past 7,500 without trouble. Everyone’s opinion on sound will change when they hear the S58 spin up and leverage the inherent benefit of being a i6. Low...

This has been answered earlier, specifically RaceRom features. Stop being as ignorant as the people “parroting” and look into it yourself. This is especially true if you have a locked ECU as you will only be able to write to calibration tables and not be able to apply new code (RaceRom) Source...

Yes, read it again. If new manufactured ecu were fully unlockable there won’t be the price gouging for the extremely limited supply of the current solution. No more pre 06.20 ecu are being produced, they will only get more expensive until they are all gone.

Assuming the most likely scenario, its a “read” MT thats been cloned and the flash is going on an applicable ecu. Not sure why the bootloader would be different so not probable that the new manufactured ecus are fully flashable. The silver lining is that they are which means a huge amount of...
