The M340i is the better option here. Donāt make the mistake of not getting xDrive. It is absolutely worth the extra money and you will regret not getting it later on down the line.
Iāve had a RWD M340i, I now have an xDrive M240i, and Iāve driven plenty of Supras. You will not be disappointed...
You're not blind. I checked earlier when you posted and noticed that they were gone. The link that I had previously saved no longer worked and I couldn't find them, both via search and via the product listings.
Steve from Wedge told me to stay away from DI upgrades for this exact reason. He said it puts way more stress on the system and the way to try to tune for it is really just a bandaid because even with the stock HPFP thereās potential to run into issues.
To add to this, thereās only two plugs on the market for our cars (That Iām aware of) that are equivalent to an NGK heat range 10 plug, and nobody really uses them. From 500-1500hp and beyond, almost everyone uses the stock plugs, with the stock gap, and the stock ignition coils. If it aināt...
Thereās no noticeable difference to the driver and nothing different to be seen in datalogs either. Just stick with the OEM Eldor coils. If they work for 1300+ HP cars, theyāll work for you.
Nah Iām not a fan of starting in 2nd gear and I donāt need it for traction because my car is xDrive. If ever I need to use 2nd gear starts for traffic or whatever, I just switch the car to Comfort+.
Nah itās not the shift point, itās the throttle blip that they have set up for the 3-2. The throttle blip custom option is only applicable to manual mode so thereās nothing that can be done to fix it on the userās side.
I despise the rough 3-2 downshift that comes with Stage 3 and the only solution offered by xHP was to just run Stage 2, but then I lose out on the rest of what Stage 3 has to offer.
For the end-user, I wouldnāt call it a game changer. You literally wonāt notice any difference when youāre driving the car. CANBUS works just fine and messages donāt get dropped as often as theyāre making it seem. Itās cool and all, but MHDās transmission logging is a much better thing to have...
