Software differences between Base and Competition

Hi folks,

I apologize if this has been asked and answered before, but I really curious what are the software differences between Base and Competition trims. I know the Competition has more HP and way more TQ, but what else is different?

In particular, I am curious to know if the coding for braking, suspension, e-Diff, throttle mapping is also different.

To give you an idea why I am asking this: I spent a lot of time tuning my E90 335i,not only the engine management but also all of the modules that are responsible for the chassis. A lot of the controllers in the E90 are shared between the 328, 335 and the M3 and the difference is the firmware and coding.

Can someone confirm the differences between G80 Base and Competition models when it comes to controller firmware and coding?

Thanks in advance
