        Thank you, No problems in the big cities really.. ill be looking forward to get a ride in euro e36 m3 tho if i come across to any of them



        Btw today i decided to drive my m3 to work i made couple videos with my cell phone camera while Im holding it in my hand



        not a good quality or anything but you can hear the tire squeel for sure but not like the long spins I was talking about I dont know how did I managed to do that also ?



        I would send OP or you guys the videos if you give me your email so you would idea about the low end that i gained with the software..

        I cant get on youtube on this laptop somehow so all I can do is sending the video through my phone..thanks

          Squeaking the tires going from 1st to 2nd is easy, if you basically drop the clutch going into 2nd with high revs. I've done it on accident before when accelerating hard from a light to get some speed coming onto a ramp. Dumb, I know.

            Yeah but i got that squeking more now after the software tune. you can easily compare to the stock m3

                I dont agree with that, Im just trying prove that Software tune does help wth the low end tq and mid range tq. It improved my cars performance dramatically and higlhly recommending to OP...I was always told tune alone wouldnt do much alone but i was impressed with the result and car is so drivable around town with the added tq just like my v8 6 speed 5er...

                  A dyno would prove that much more effectively than chirping tires, which is far more dependent on shifting style and tire compound than on power.

                    Oah yeah dyno would def prove that but there is no such a thing in florida keys..

                    But trust me i installed the ecu back in ,started the car after first rev I was suprised with the throttle response and driving around first time ever i had to hold the steering wheel little tight car wanted to bounce ..


                    Until the obd2 tune car was just boring, it def felt slow expecially comparing to my monster 5er with 304wtq and there were times i wanted to get rid of it because of that . But with the software car felt amazing, I dont have to downshift as much anymore, I ve got power at each gear and car pulls way harder now thru the rpm band , there is no way one would not notice the difference trust me I wasnt expecting that much difference i just trusted one of my bmw instructor friend who know what hes doing and got this trm tune..

                        Just installed my Bavauto chip (rebadged shark injector) to go along with an AFE intake and debaffled stock exhaust. Well, my engine seems to rev more freely now. More so with the chip than before. I was quite happy with the low/midrange tq, but the engine seemed slow to build revs (somewhat spoiled with my rev happy S2000). Not the case now with the 3 mods. Tq seems fine and don't need to downshift as much.



                        Now I'm thinking about that obd1 intake manifold..........

                          Yeah that ll be the next mod for me too...S2000 doesnt have as much tq as the e36 m3 tho, driving around e36 m3 will be easier but i def love the honda s2ks gearbox.


                          90 percent of the reviews of Shar injector and Bavauto chips (same) shows what you have experienced but if you check the reviews of Trms OBD2 software tune you ll def see that TrM outperforms all, There is an official Trm obd2 thread on Bimmerforums. I respect the route you went but I dont thinki shark injector would give you so much at least thats what i ve heard i spent 5 months on web before i got the trm one .. TMS stopped spending time on e36 m3s as Conforti said .. Trm is still focused on e36 m3 performance and they come out with new ideas with happy customers.

                          And if you check the forums you ll see the comparison between trm and shark injector tunes and TrM outperforms Shark on dyno...


                          If you want a VTECH feel you ll love the obd1 manifold . I drove e36 m3 with m50 mani swap and del sol vtech back to back , almost the same feel, they both feel awesome at top end but of course it takes forever for del sol vtech before v tech kicks in hahah


                          Here is one of them ;

                            Tks, yeah just went with a shark injector. I live in Calif with just 91 octane and strict emissions testing. Not sure if it'll pass now.
