Doomsday Tuning Map
Ok.. so here's what we've learned so far about v29.2 (and presumably the v81 DME).
The "manipulation" code that is triggered by aftermarket tunes has to do with exceeding a certain mass airflow limit. Being clever folks, the engineers at BMW know that it was useless to measure airflow by using the easily manipulatable MAP sensor. So instead it appears that they are looking at: 1) Fuel output, which can be used along with Air/Fuel ratio to calculate mass airflow. and 2) Wastegate control duty cycle, to make sure it stays within the range of a stock vehicle. If it goes too high, it can be determined that boost has been raised. Fuel output can be represented by monitoring short term fuel trims. This can be logged on any decent OBD-II scan tool. On a stock car, STFTs typically stay within +/- 10%, depending on bolt-on mod, ambient conditions, running conditions, etc,. For those who don't know STFT is a closed loop fuel correction the factory ECU adds (or subtracts) from the raw fuel map(s) in order to keep AFR at the desired target. AFR is measured by the wideband o2 sensors located just downstream of the turbos. Current tuning systems induce fuel enrichment by biasing the wideband signals. This induces a more positive STFT. Sometimes this goes as high as the ECU allows (+33%). We had a hunch that this would be something that the ECU could eventually monitor. It is, in fact, the last quantifiable tuning artifact that we know of. Our target goal was to keep STFT within the range of a stock car (+/-10%) while still providing proper on-boost fuel enrichment. So we started our homework by monitoring the system fuel pressure. Fuel pressure in the DI system peaks at 3000psi at peak torque. Then it tapers as torque papers off, reaching just 1600psi at 7000rpm. So we got control of the fuel pressure control system. We left peak pressure unchanged. Instead, we just contoured the pressure curve to me more suitable for a car that makes more higher rpm torque. This basically give us 30-40% more fuel output at 7000rpm. More importantly, it provided this extra fuel without running abnormally high STFTs or out-of-spec injector on-times. Basically, we can't think of any way that the overall system could be more diagnostically invisible/immune to throttle closure. Either with 29.2 or anything else that I can imagine BMW throwing at us in the future. Here are some logs I've done with this new "Doomsday" map (14.5psi peak) on my car (fully catless with dual intakes): The blue line represent actual throttle position (87% is full throttle). The red line is Short Term Fuel Trim Bank 1. Notice that even when running WOT at full boost (12-15psi), STFT stay within the same range as they do when running off boost. Under no circumstance do STFTs max themselves out at 33% just begging for Big Brother to notice And on top of that, we've actually managed to make the ECU less prone to closing throttle under dynamic driving conditions. Throttle closure was more apparent when the car is stock. Right now, a handful of people are running this map (or variations of it). By no means am I encouraging fraud with respect to diagnostic invisibility. I just want these cars to drive properly when hopped up. BMW should have no control over what you do to your car once you own it. More info to come.... Shiv |

P.S. Obviously you're saying you're not trying to hide tunes for legal reasons, but it's pretty clear that you are. Better off just being honest. P.P.S. From an engineering standpoint, you're a brilliant at reverse engineering, well done.

I stand corrected. Hence why I gave the two options.

It's not even worth trying to explain anything to someone who is willing to make himself look stupid just to shit on someone else's work. For instance, he pulls this "3100psi" figure out of no where. Something that isn't even right. And he also states that running higher pressures will "overrunning" a pump that is directly driven off the engine. Pressure is controlled by a relief valve, not pump speed. He also doesn't seem to understand that fuel flow is the square root of the change in pressure.
He is the same guy who asked Riss Racing about a refund if he doesn't find oil in the catch can. He's a troll, nothing more. Shiv |

$950 + tax for the part if you want to install it yourself.

Just wondering, what made you change your mind about the STFT's ?
I have heard several people battling about weather or not it actually does this... I just wondered what made you change your mind... thanks -Rick Quote:
