VR Tuned ECU Flash Tune BMW M550i xDrive G30 | G31 | G38 462HP

Tuning the ECU of your BMW M550i G30 Sedan is possible with VR Tuned. Tuning this ECU requires special hardware to read and write the ECU which we have. Superior to a plug and play piggyback, we can transform your N63 twin turbocharged engine into a beast. The driving characteristics are vastly improved while providing you additional benefits that your engine craves for. With this additional programming to adjust your ecu calibrations, we also make changes to the torque limiter to provide better throttle response.

Crank Horsepower Ratings:

• Stock Power: 462hp | 479ft/lbs
• Tuned Power: 542hp | 572ft/lbs

ECU Flash Options:

• Vmax Off - This is an increase or reduction of the maximum speed limit.
• Race Exhaust - This option is for those running full race exhaust systems.
• Pops & Bangs - Pops and bangs (burble tune) is the result of an ignition delay which creates an exhaust detonation when the throttle pedal is released. Caution, this process must only be used on vehicles with a full race exhaust. This may affect long term engine reliability.
• Sport Display - This option allows sport display adaptation to show the higher HP and TQ figures from the tune.
• DTC OFF - This option is to delete Trouble Code (DTC) related to the engine. You provide us the code.
• Some options are not available for different software version of the vehicle. We cannot know this until the factory ECU read is uploaded. If a feature is not available that is extra, we will refund you that amount. We do guarantee to provide you with the best possible performance tune.

How to Flash Your ECU?

• We can bench flash the ECU. To bench flash the ECU, you must remove it from your vehicle and send it to us. Once we receive the ECU, we will read out the original file and back it up. Then prepare the new tuned file and write it back to the ECU. The ECU will be returned to you via the shipping method you selected at checkout.
• Bring your vehicle to our facility where we can use our Master Tool to flash your vehicle via the OBDII port. If you require flashing your vehicle back to stock in the future, you will need to purchase a OBDII tool if available.
• For reference this ECU/TCU may identify as - Bosch MG1.

Product Notes:

• Stock power numbers are converted from units of PS and NM to HP and FT/LBS. This may result in ratings being slight different than a manufactures rating (its ok we tune off your software read).
• All ECU Tuning must be used within 6 months of purchase date.
• General ECU support is available for 30 days following the files being sent to you.
• Additional features, mod changes, or OEM software updates are charged a $350 file fee.
• Bolt-on upgrades do not include: turbos, superchargers, fuel components such as injectors, fuel pumps, engine internals.
• Once a OBDII device has been locked to your vehicle and/or you have been sent files, there are no refunds on software.
• We DO NOT force ready status in tuning. We provide you with the true original file to flash back to stock if/when needed (Mail-in customers must send their ECU to be flashed back to stock). If you install other parts on the vehicle that cause check engine lights when the car is flashed back to stock, you will need to address those mechanical parts to meet your local or state requirements.
• All VR Tuned support is done via our Support Ticket System. If you need help Contact Us Here.
