    I bet it slows the gearchanges down and saves BMW some clutch money

    Guys, a bit of an update on this.

    Car went into Andy at Murketts a couple of weeks back. Had a new clutch, flywheel, software, rtabs etc. all done under warranty. Also had the seat adjusted to tilt forward and that has made a huge difference to me, can really throw the car around even more now.

    Anyway, got in the car at Murketts to drive home, turn it on and think, bloody hell, car's a bit quiet? Turn right out of the dealership and up to the roundabout and think, damn this feels a bit slow. Thought maybe I should turn around and go and get it checked out. Then I realised that the sport button wasn't on.

    My remap from Evolve had programmed sport button memory. So basically the remap had been wiped when the did the clutch software. All I can say is that the remap was clearly bloody good because the difference was instantly noticeable. The remap also made the car sound louder and more mean so missing that as well.

    Anyways, taking the car to Evolve next week to get it remapped for free again and may as well get my pads, hose and fluid done at the same time ready for SPA/Ring. Just thought I'd share with you guys.

    He reckons he can get 300bhp out of my wifes X3 3.0d sport as well. Might get that done as well..........won't tell the mrs. though, lol.

    Ok, so here are the dyno maps. On 2 different days, 1 std and 1 with map. Hope it works as I'm not used to posting photos.





    I was told the following which makes sense:

    2 different days, same map vs standard.

    It shows the gains are consistent ignoring what the dyno readings say. Basically it's taking the correction factors out of the equation.

    Also, notice the control point at 6500rpm. It's where I didn't change anything on the map so the two lines should meet in that area to show there is no BS going on.

    So the gains are are around 10-12hp peak and more at around 4600rpm.

    When the air is cold,it is much denser than hot air. This raises the compression ratio which in turn produces a more complete combustion cycle and lowers the engines fuel demands. Also,the atoms in cold gasoline are more aligned and mix with the air more thouroughly resulting in better combustion.You’ve probably noticed you car having more power in the winter too. :thumbs:

    It was 369.8 on a specific day. It was then 362bhp 2 days later. I believe it is 370bhp after map. I don't understand all this dyno stuff to be honest. All I have realised that dynoing at 369.8 on 1 day doesn't mean it will regularly turn that out. Same with the remap, might churn out 370 one day, 380 the next (unlikely) or 365. I'll post the before and after dyno map later on.

    My personal approach is to stay away from a remap in the CSL (when it's stock like mine).
    Mine came with a Thorney's map on it, otherwise the engine / exhaust is completely standard. The main aim for mine by the previous owner was the removal of the limiter and to sort the fuelling at low revs.

    I can't compare what it was like as std, but yep mine seems razor sharp with the sport button on, linear-ish but pulls harder as the revs rise (in a linear way). I don't have any flat spots...


    Agreed that dyno printouts mean little unless it is one car and done 'before' and 'after' some work on the same day / dyno etc.

    Here is the Nordsmobile (like I said std, stage a stage 1 Thorney map):

    The thornmeister did mine ( http://www.thorneymotorsport.co.uk/t...M3_Power.shtml ) .. S2 with SS Cats and race BB... not sure the BHP as was never dyno'd but runs like a dream since it was done last year, and seems to pull a little better than the others (Rob's) and the few around me.

    Not enough to get more than half a cars length, but smoother I would say overall.

    Depends what your trying to achieve I suppose TBH Brakes / Tyres / Suspension in that order will make the most difference with driver ability / training included

    To give you an example :
    Std RS Focus (engine wise ) running on KW clubsports with half cage and brake upgrade ...



    I have seen this car in the flesh and it really is running std engine :smokin: Check the lap time and vid and the lovely half cage :whistle: :smt047
