With on-going revisions and updates being made continuously both on our Race and Forced Induction programs, they have made possible the refinements needed for a true hi-performance street tune. Within specific ares of the MSS54 DME, the algorithms have been altered to achieve more usable horsepower and torque by re-working features such as the engine VANOS (dual variable valve timing), fuel and ignition maps and torque dampening. Other noticeable r\u003cspan\u003eesults are better warm starts, with a crisper and a more responsive throttle. So w\u003c\/span\u003ehether you enjoy you car as a daily driver or enjoy the weekend track outings our BMW M3 tune software will be able to accommodate your needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003eThrough careful, detailed remapping to the entire DME we have been able to increase your S54's output by 14 HP and 11 ft lbs of torque on a stock BMW E46 M3 with factory settings for a normal street car. We also have different upgrades available for off-road use like sport button modification, SMG shift light feature to your 6 speed model, 02 Simulation, etc. The software is designed to operate with gasoline that has an average octane rating with full emissions to create a clean burning combustion with good AFR's all within factory specifications. Paired with our BMW M3 Sport Header the gains are even more dramatic!\u003cbr aria-posinset=\"0\" aria-setsize=\"0\" aria-level=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCustomer Feedback\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRobert Chang, 2013 BMWCCA National Champion...\"Two years and a championship later, the car is still running a stock RACE tuned ECU.
