M550i Quest for the 10s 1/4 Mile - DME+JB4+DPs | 0-60 / 60-130 / 1/4 Mile Compared
Hey guys,
Thought i'd update you on my car. Since my last big post i've gotten a DME tuning stage 2 flash. Working with them was flawless, very responsive guys and answer all your questions promptly. On top of the DME flash i had the JB4 installed to control the boost. Running Map 1 currently and this thing rips. It's very cold up here and I was skeptical on the gains at first until i realized this thing is spinning wheels in 2nd and 3rd is kicking the traction light on. Absolute animal Before I get to that i'll give you an update on the gains on Downpipes alone for this car. Sounds quite a bit louder now btw Flash only with and without downpipes Gained 0.4 seconds in 60-130 after downpipe install A vid to give you an idea of the sound So last night i got some time to do 1/4 runs. I mean I tried to do 1/4 run but the car kept spinning and just wouldn't launch properly. LC was bogging a lot. Took some advice from the RK-tunes post here and turned DSC OFF. My Fastest and slowest run of the day Now you have to keep in mind I wasn't able to launch the car by holding boost for more than 1 second as that lit up the tires immediately. So launch has a bit more room in it. 0-60 and 60-130 Full Setup: 2018 M550i xdrive DME Stage 2 flash JB4 Map 1 ARM Downpipes Petro 94 (had about 15% in the tank) Pirelli Sottozero 3 245 square setup Temp around -10c lol

Great info!! Thanks.
I am considering the DME tune. How easy is it to remove if I need to take the car into the dealer for service?? |

I did few pulls today with no cool down in between and in my last pull I was able to get 3.69 to 60mph. I used launch control, Sport mode and had almost full tank of gas. (it started to rain when I realized that I wasn't in Sport Plus). I have a BPM tune only. Not sure if I'm happy with the result. I was hoping to be closer to 3.5 but question is:
Would there be a difference between Sport and Sport Plus? What's the best way to launch this car? |

I saw on their website that they now came out with a m550 N63R model. People were fitting the old 550 downpipes on since it was the same part. |
