Tuned 640d

Dandanbmw · 03-19-2016, 09:30 AM

So this morning I had my car remapped and i'm happy with the results and feels very impressive now.

The figures from the rolling road were...
Standard :- 253whp 494Nm to the wheels
Tuned :- 305whp 575Nm to the wheels.
Rough calculation is 350-380bhp. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Very happy :-)

Certainly will when I get a chance mate. I think it will be a lot more noticeable 20mph onwards and when I can find a private runway I'll test it 0-100mph :-)

I'm wondering how you ended up to crank 380+ hp and 734lb torque with those wheel numbers (305 whp and 575 NM wtq)!
Usually for RWD cars specially F1x 6 series the drivetrain loss is about 12-15% so basically your engine is generating about 350 HP and 660NM (490 lb-ft) of torque... anyways nice result... congratulation

God knows lol I haven't bothered working it out properly but the tuner guy said it was 21.3% loss and was around them figures.
All I know it's certainly noticeable

Sounds great and pretty impressive, am somewhat tempted. How long did it take? Any feedback yet on how the whether it has had an impact on MPG on a cruise?

Kopex47 · 03-23-2016, 08:45 AM

Did you get the option of having the auto trans remap too?

It's totally transformed the way it delivers the power now and is significantly quicker than before. The last tank didn't last as long as normal but that was due to lots of testing and having fun.
This tank I've been taking it easy to see the difference and it's improved. The real test will be when I drive to Portugal in July.

Here is a pic of a short journey this morning with a mix of all roads taking it easy.

I did briefly talk to the guys about it as a friend was asking about his gearbox remap for his 330d and they said they can do it. Maybe something I'll have done at some point.

you must have been driving down hill for most of it with MPG like that !!

Haha a little bit of it was downhill yes. I'd say the first 3 miles. The real test will be in July when I drive to the Algarve to see what it can achieve.

AceCobra1 · 04-08-2016, 05:01 AM

How much was the remap and did it improve MPG ? :P

I paid £400 for the remap including the rolling road. Mpg around town hasn't really changed unless I really plod then it's noticeable.
I'm taking it on a 360 round trip tomorrow so I'll post up how it gets on
