How to Tune?
Hello guys, my name is Lickx and I recently bought a 2020 m340i over the weekend! I love the car but Im wondering what are the steps I need to take in order to tune my vehicle, will I need to ship my ECU to femto?
Any information is appreciated! -Lickx |

Your DME can be bench unlocked. I got a 04/19 build date on mine so I was in luck. I just got the MHD unlocker / MHD tune package / MHD wireless connector month and half ago for total of 900$. I highly recommend it. You can unlock the DME yourself limitless amount with the unlocker. If you ever get it, send me a PM and I can tell you how to go about it. Its easy and simple. After the unlock you can flash your DME with the wireless connector (to OBD II PORT). I have multi map flashed and I can choose one of four at any time. Currently i am on 91/E30/E40/E85 tune. I can switch it in an instant depends on the fuel I have. The tune will make your car noticeably faster at all RPM range. So from the data that ive read from the forums, a stage 2 E40 tuned M340i is basically faster than a stock F80 M3, and as quick as Stage 1 F80 M3. |

You do not need to send your DME to femto but you will need a "bench unlock" before you can flash (load) performance software into your car. You can find a local performance shop to do the unlock OR alternatively there are two companies (MHD and Mission) that offer an at home bench unlock tool. Not coincidently both companies also offer a performance flash for your car. With the MHD unlock tool you are limited to their flash but with the Mission tool you can load any flash you want, MHD, Mission, BM3, MG etc are probably the 4 largest flash players each catering to a different clientele imho. As standalone units the MHD tool is slightly less expensive at $299.00 vs the mission tool at $350 but the mission tool is more feature rich and is less expensive at $200.00 when bundled with their flash. Hope this helps |
