Flashing the ECU of a BMW M3 F80 Competition in Your Garage!

There is no denying that the BMW F8X M3/M4 are fast cars. With 425+ horsepower, it’s a beast of a car and car easily slay almost any other sports car in its category. Of course, enthusiasts always want more. Sure the F8X fast, but what if you could make it even faster? Luckily, BMW has adopted turbocharged engines which means squeezing more power out of the M3 is much easier than it was with previous generations. By simply increasing the amount of boost those turbos are making, a pretty big jump in power can be achieved. This is where our tuning division, VR Tuned, comes into play. While other tuning solutions on the market require you to have your ECU popped open, with our tune everything is done through the OBD port, making it possible for you to tune your M3 at home in your driveway!

Speaking of flashing your F8X right at home, that’s exactly what our customer did with their F80 M3 Competition model. To do this, you will need a Windows powered computer or a Mac dual-booted into Windows. Boot up the VR Tuned software and follow the instructions. After the flash, your M3/M4 competition package will jump from 450 horsepower to 500 horsepower, and torque will take a massive jump for 406 lb-ft to 498 lb-ft. “Thanks, guys for the amazingly quick return on the tuning. It’s truly an instant power gain, especially in high gears. Love it! Thanks again!,” said our customer.
