Manual Trans MKV Tuning Questions and (Hopefully) Answers Thread

[rammjaeger]

I’m right behind you. Mine was in the same batch as yours. Doing the stage 2 tomorrow with catless, already have hks intake and exhaust installed. Are you actually going to dyno after or just use the butt??

I'm probably just going to butt dyno I haven't installed an intake or downpipe yet or anything. Want to see what Stage 1 does.

Thought there was portions of this video that may be applicable for this thread.

Time stamps
1:48 mentions tuning solution (CES customer used EPC and MHD)
3:14 dyno comparison b/w FBO stock, MHD OTS stage 2 93 Oct, & MHD OTS stage 2 E40
5:38 dyno comparison w/ custom meth (M1) tune E50
8:20 auto vs manual comparison
8:32 clutch upgrade recommendation

Not bad. He said those numbers are a littler higher than what they typically see with the equivalent mods on an auto but that's what you would expect.

Intake + charge pipe + down pipe with no tune is the 408whp number

The only members here I've seen post their dyno sheets for the MT are @CU Later054457 and @barasoap.

Of course it's all relative due to the various factors that come into play. The more data we have the better though.

It's interesting how people realize how much they really enjoy the manual supra after driving it.

Not even as a manual snob speaking, but in general just the entire package. Also good to know that it makes a bit more power until you get to the custom tuning, but that's for a different conversation.

The 530/597 is the e50 with a single 500cc jet m1 methanol, probably where the car is going to live for the time being. I will post 1/4 mile times when the weather warms up and keep updates on the stock clutch

It looks so easy that’s so tempting!!! Mine already have AA Catted DP, charge pipe and K&N filter on a stock box. Been wanting to do FEMTO unlock+MHD for bit now.

Thanks for sharing!

I have heard some murmurs that you have to reach out to burger tuning specifically to iron out the issues. Idk how true that may be. My BM3 tune is phenomenal though

Heard anything else about ironing out those JB4 issues?

Late to the party, but just to confirm that the DME in the manual BMW can't be cloned into another unlocked DME. It happened to me with the M4.

Visconti/Femto tried to clone it, got like 4 DMEs and like 4 months later and a refund, my only option was to use my own Femto unlocked DME. I wish I knew in advance, but anyway, seems that is the same case for the Supra.

I hear from bm3 camp they’re basically done with their CustomRom updates and will be releasing this week with their flex fuel kit too. Anyone confirm?

Figured this is the appropriate thread to post this. Mods are AA catless DP, valvetronics designs exhaust, and MHD OTS stage 2 on 91oct.

Normal Mode

After realizing I forgot to put the car in sport mode while I was on the dyno, I went back in hopes these weren’t my actual power numbers.

Sport Mode

Conclusion: sport mode makes a difference. Hope this data helps.
