The valves are nice on the Akrapovic + ER DP combo. Civil when it needs to be, all hell breaks loose when they open.

Can someone explain to me why tuners are now only getting 450whp out of these M4's now?
A lot of hype a few months ago and now tunes add only 40-50whp.. instead of the 150whp all these past threads say! Care to enlighten me anyone? D: |

Care to cite some examples? M3/4s with the same mods are making at least this much if not more power now than before.

Don't forget to compare it with the same fuel.

I remember seeing all the numbers of 550+whp being thrown around by DPs, JB4 and a little E85. Being just a JB4 + a little E85 coming out to 510+whp on initial runs. And now I'm seeing other dynos with similar mods coming out to 460-470whp. not the 550+whp as before? or maybe people don't know how to dyno them? I'm seeing threads of people struggling with that as well! |

There's no reason cars with the same mods can't make the same or more power as before. There was nothing magical about November-December 2014. |

Exactly.
I can't help but think those were overcorrected glory runs. 550whp+ is a lot of power. Yet, I've only seen it on a handful of cars. Mainly posted in the Summer of last year. Nothing lately has came out, except PURE Turbo cars which are 600+whp. All the tunes for JB4, DPs and E85 now seem to be reading much lower than all those "glory" runs last summer. I mean shoot, they got 480whp overnight with the cars.. and now we need E85, etc for those numbers. lol. |

I noticed the SES light on, is that caused by the piggy back tune? Piggy back tunes destroy ECUs and sensors. My friend had a piggy back on his f30 335 and it destroyed the ecu and a bunch of sensors. BMW covered it under warranty after removing the piggy back. Why cant the ecu just be tuned?
