I can't wait for a proven tune for this car. I am sure it will be great no matter what because the 200t is already fun to drive around town. Most of 2.0T have good gains from just tunes. I actually did some research into the technology in this engine and they really have some interesting engineering into this car.

We all wonder when one is coming out and how much safe reliable power can be had.

Where did you see this? I emailed them last month and he said "if/when they get connectors they'll make an announcement." The whole IF thing got me thinking that they're not sure they'll even get them.

E46CT

I talked to them directly. But yeah. not sure what the hold up is. why does every other car seem to instantly get connectors.

Horse Power increase: 245hp↗291hp

Torque increase: 35.7kgm↗42.5kgm

very interested as the quoted increases seem very competitive as well as the price at 699.00.

I wish they had specific info on it. like pics of the actual car. these companies suck at marketing. makes them look VERY scary.

They're up in NorCal unfortunately. Otherwise, I would be all over that.

Glad to see the BMW folks taking the lead. Burger and Dinan. Lexus aftermarket seems to be all about stance and purple lug nuts. I wish this crowd and its aftermarket support was more about performance. =( I guess these companies go where the money is.

To be fair, the ECUs have not be crack-able for the last however many years so I assume people decided to do aesthetic things. That being said, I definitely agree with your sentiments.

Something is needed fast, especially to eliminate this horrible lag, it's almost dangerous the way the car delays throttle response. Good thing I leased this thing, in 2 or so years I'm moving on to the RCF/GSF...

In the mean time you can buy an Apexi throttle controller which helps with the lag a bit by improving throttle response.

In stock!
