Those are decent enough results for a stock 2.0 4 banger. Wonder what a tuned car does. Do you guys have tunes (other than burger/BM3) for the 330i there?

I installed mine yesterday, really impressed with it.
A lot more pronounced spool up on the turbo, BOV and exhaust crap and pops. Also, get a nice BOV sound on gear changes on WOT! https://vimeo.com/384925373 |

I don’t get the BOV/turbo spooling sound on my car with JB+. Maybe because mine isn’t on the max setting? I used to get it in my A4 with a CAI and I loved it.

Ah ok. Maybe I should ask my wife to listen carefully for the sound. Or I should pay more attention the next time I take the 330i out

I bumped my JB+ all the way up to max and took her out for a spin. I’m not sure I could say I felt an extra oomph. Maybe a little but I always think that’s probably a placebo effect? But yes. Once the turbo spools up, it’s like the car wants to pick up and run. Also, like g20beam said, car definitely feels so much better in sport mode. So much so that I’m driving in sport mode with the tranny in S all the time now (before JB+, it was in comfort with tranny in D since sport was too jerky in stop and go traffic).

Only a tune and nothing else? If so, those are some excellent numbers!

So i found a G20 330 that was tuned by a shop in the Netherlands and i asked how much power the engine can safely run - i received this response. Can someone help me interpret - I wonder how this translates to the US B46?

I guess the A is in the 320, which they stated has weak pistons. They mentioned that the B in the 330 is “perfect”. Take that for what’s it worth!

Did some digging and found out that the American cars (b46) are basically just the b48 with a different tune for emission regulations. Mechanically it’s the same. Also, they state 320 safely but the Russian car in the IG post makes almost 340bhp.

When using something like a JB+, should I be using the highest octane fuel at the bowser? In Australia we have 91,95 and 98 available to us. I generally use 95 as recommended by BMW specs.
