What each modification does
Stage 1 for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Software-only remap for a car with standard hardware.
Stage 2 BASE for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Remap matched to hardware upgrades. Which parts are needed differs per engine. If needed we fine-tune the file up to 3 times free of charge, based on the datalogs you send us.
Stage 3 BASE for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Remap for a larger or hybrid turbo with supporting hardware. If needed we fine-tune the file up to 3 times free of charge, based on the datalogs you send us.
E85 or other special fuels modification for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The calibration is set up for one special fuel, for example E85. This is not a flex-fuel setup.
Flex fuel mod for E85 or other fuel types for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The engine adapts to the fuel that is in the tank, from petrol to E85 and any blend in between. This is not a fixed E85 calibration.
Pops and bangs for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Fuel still injected on overrun ignites in the exhaust and gives the crackle sound. Intensity can be set: soft (burbles), normal, hard or flames.
Hardcut limiter for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Ignition is cut at the limiter instead of fuel being reduced early, so full power is available to the redline.
Sport displays calibration for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The power and torque displays are recalibrated to the tuned values.
VMAX speedlimit on/off higher/lower for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The electronic speed limiter is removed, raised or lowered.
DTC off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Selected fault codes are switched off so they are no longer stored or shown.
Start/Stop System Off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Start-stop is switched off by default.
Cold start off - Catalyst heating off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The catalyst-heating phase after a cold start (raised idle, retarded ignition) is removed.
Exhaust flap control/off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Exhaust valves can be opened or closed independent of the driving mode. For cars with valves in the original exhaust.
Catalyst off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Catalyst monitoring by the lambda (O2) sensor is switched off so a sport catalyst or decat does not raise fault codes.
EVAP off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Monitoring of the fuel vapour (EVAP) system is switched off.
AGS off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The active grille shutters are switched off in software.
Torque monitoring off for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Torque monitoring is relaxed so a higher torque does not trigger limp mode.
Readiness ok for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
Readiness monitors are set so the car reports ready at an emission inspection.
IMMO_OFF for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The immobiliser check is removed from the ECU, so the engine starts without the immobiliser.
Cloning (ECU/TCU) for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The complete content of one unit is copied to another unit of the same type.
CVN correction for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The calibration verification number is corrected so it matches the modified software.
Checksum Correction for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The checksums of the file are recalculated so the control unit accepts the modified software.
Idle RPM Mod for BMW i8 1.5T (231 hp)
The idle speed is raised or lowered; the rev limit can be changed as well.
