Didn’t you say in previous threads you would never ship your ecu to a foreign company because you were scared of it being lost?

Just to get this straight, you cannot have multiple OTS maps and switch between them but you can have a tuner make you a custom map that includes up to 4 tables/maps that you can switch on the fly, so it theroy you could mimic a setupe like this: 1- OEM map 2- CSL map 3- Stage 1 4- Custom Map ?
Unfortunately you are not able to combine BM3 OTS maps and custom maps on a switching file. You need to run all OTS files or all custom files.

From my understanding, custom tuners do not have access to raw BM3 OTS files thus they cannot build a custom switching map with them. At least this is the case with Paul Johnson.

I don't know if I said never, but I would not do it unless I had to.

im going to upgrade the turbos and run 100% E85; I don't have an option but to send the dme.

For 99% of customers that are not going for a crazy build, I would not recommend it. But at the end of the day, it's your car, your choice.

All fair points. Sounds like you are going to have an absolute beast on your hands once finished

S58 CustomROM support is Now Available !🙌

Over the past year we've worked tirelessly to build significant automation that would allow us to port our CustomROM features across software updates as they get released for vehicles we support. We applied it to the S58 and managed to add support for all 8 S58 software versions including all G8x M3/M4 and G9x X3M/X4M.

FlexFuel, AntiLag, MapSwitching, LiveAdjust Tuning, In-Dash Ethanol Content Check, and close to 5000 tuning tables available in the bm3 Map Editor.

🔸Any new OTS Maps available?
Two new MultiMap OTS maps, Stage 1 and a Stage 2. Each MultiMap contains 4 steering wheel switchable map slots. FlexFuel and Antilag are built into all of them and scale from 0 to 100% ethanol.

🔸Can I get this if my DME is currently LOCKED and requires a FEMTO Unlock?
Yes. You need to purchase a BM3 license, activate your bootmod3 software license, and then send your DME to Femto. We provided Femto with means to load BM3 CustomROM software along with our Transmission Limiter Bypass. Once you get your DME back from Femto, it'll have the BM3 CustomROM on it with their unlock.

🔸Can I get this if my DME is Femto UNLOCKED?
Unfortunately, due to specifics around the Femto unlock, you will need to have your DME resent to Femto for CustomROM software to be applied along side their unlock. Your DME would lose its Femto unlock if we allowed a full flash of the software to be done. If you were to flash the MultiMap without resending it to Femto, you will simply have MultiMap's map1 power available and no CustomROM features.

🔸Do I need to clone my DME for this?
No.

🔸Can I get this if my DME is OBD or Bench unlocked (older X3M/X4M)?
Yes, flash away.

🔸Is there an S58 Flex Fuel hardware kit?
Our S58-specific Flex Fuel kit hardware is on the way so be on the lookout! Any other flex fuel kit based on the off the shelf Zeitronix ECA2 CANBUS controller can also be used. In the meantime, you can use the LiveAdjust screen in the app to scale your ethanol content on demand.

Happy hunting!

I bought the Zeitronix one they said will work. ECU is already on the way and hoping to have it back before new years.

Does the CSL map go with the OTS maps or with the custom maps?

You can flash any OTS map including their what they call MultiMap with multiple ones inside a single map. You can do whatever really especially if you get a bm3 tuner to combine it all for you. Tuners got their own base or OTS maps too they can offer. OEM and CSL maps are free and those any tuner can open. My friend has a shop and has a tuner account so we took a look.

I kind of agree, BM3 always felt a bit amateurish in the way they present stuff, they always more complicated and less user friendly than its competitors.

you can create a bm3 account for free, search for the S58 maps and it will show you all the available maps with a description of each one
