G80 Carbahn piggyback installed!

G80_GuyGuy · 11-16-2021, 10:40 PM

One of the first to get this tune! It is exactly what the G80 needed. I mean it was fast before but now it has some pep in its step! Drives just like a stock car until you floor it and whip your neck back but not too far back, the carbon buckets seats hold you in place like no other! Car is awesome now especially in sports+ you can hear the turbos spool up sounds amazing!

Details please: where? Cost? How? Did you send out ecu?

McLaren720s · 11-17-2021, 08:16 AM

I want to see a dyno!

Congrats

We need a "this thread is worthless without" GIF. Dyno, details, product, price, proof baby!

JTO24 · 11-17-2021, 10:19 AM

Assume it's just for the comp at the moment?

Soylent · 11-17-2021, 10:21 AM

Nice fluff ad. Where's the data?

iviegatron · 11-17-2021, 10:27 AM

These type of post only give you blue balls.

Yet another Placebo Post

The Dinan spinoff company.... Their tune on the F9X M8 was weak compared to the likes of JB

The data is on my receipt, 3k. Got it installed at a carbahn authorized dealer no fluff especially since I’m not being paid.

Unfortunately I don’t have a draggy unit but will look into getting a dyno in the next few days if anyone knows a good shop in Ca Bay Area that can hook me up let me know. Just got it yesterday and only have a butt dyno for now.

Even the Carbahn website doesnt have this product for a G80 S58 let alone an X3M Comp (same engine) which has been out for a while.

So Carbahn has cracked the ECU while all others are still trying? Or did I miss something>>>????

I know its not always great to come here and post things and have the credibility checked but the ambiguity is prevalent.

They dont have a tune for the F90 either, you probably bought yourself a "performance controller" aka piggy

It’s a piggyback tune not on their website… give them a call

Oh. All that excitement for nothing.

:

However, $3,000, for a piggy seems insane to me. Even weirder that's it's not on their website because if it was really good and actually worth $3,000 they would want to promote it. Thinking there's more to this…

Sooo I was correct...

You just paid more because you got their warranty.

Yes, exactly. Been waiting a while for this I could have gone the racechip/jb4 route but wanted the warranty for peace of mind.

If you want a warranty it’s going to cost you. My original post said “one of the first” I’m sure it will be on their site soon. I’ve been driving this car since July and know it like the back of my hand def a difference now that’s worth it to me
