N55 435i software

Hi guys looking to do a remap on my 435i. Only have the car for a month now. I have done a Roush Performance catless downpipe as well as a charge pipe. What would be best, bootmod3 or remap?

Thanks in advance

Many things to consider between remap and a bootmod3 or JB etc...

I personally prefer custom maps on my vehicles...by your downpipe i am assuming you meant 'Rogue Performance'. You can research on the forum between our vendors on who provides remaps...I went with Xcede...I did quite a lot of research and best bang for buck with power while maintaining reliability and great customer backing and service ... they came out tops.

But that was after I researched all tuners...you may prefer a different tuner dependent on your needs.

Good luck bud!

I just bought a old 435 and discovered it has a JB4 fitted to it. Up until a few days ago I new nothing about it. 

I think this maybe one of the better choices as you can do so much more than just a normal tune. So for example it has 5 different settings for maps which includes one "pro tuning" map. 
You can also do things like change the fuel guage to a bosst guage after certain revs or open the exhaust flap permanently or run at standard map, a "stage" 1 or "stage" 2 map depending on your mods. I have no idea on costs but expect it will be more expensive than the normal dynoing.

So far I have only driven to Durban and back and a few times to work but I am very happy with it. (only had it two weeks)


As a side note, i also got Bimmercode and have coded some nice features, like auto stop to be always off unless selecting eco mode or actually pressing the button, changed the displays, switching off the i-drive when opening the door  and some other minor changes - im still learning. 
From what I can see it is also not coded to one vehicle so if anyone wants to do some coding to their vehicles, let me know. (i work in Midrand and Live in Lonehill)

Congrats on the new purchase as bud, these are awesome cars! I will maybe take you up on the Bimmercode coding options, was looking for one thing to be coded on mine
