Turner Motorsport Performance Tuning Module for F80 M3, F82 M4
It appears Turner Motorsport has a tuning solution for the F8x. This should be rather interesting to follow and I'm not sure if anyone has seen this. The gains look quite impressive. There's a thread on the other site where they actually respond to forum members. What a novel idea...

Looks interesting. Bit pricier than the JB4, from what I can tell. Well done website, also.
From the installation instructions, it looks like everything is installed in the engine bay, nothing in the passenger cabin? |

It's the same as a JB4 only when installed as "Stage1" without the CANbus, fuel, or EWG access. Crazy what they are trying to charge for a Stage1 tune.

While turner is a VERY reputable company/shop, I do think it's a bit ridiculous that they're charging that amount of money for exactly what @mike@n54tuning.com said:
Stage 1 with no added benefits. No CAN for code reading/deleting, not EWG access for better boost control, and no Fuel mass tap. The JB4 is literally more superior in every way at a more affordable price point.

So I'm a little nervous about this announcement on a purely technical level. Doesn't an additional 75 pound feet of torque at 6500 rpm equate to an additional 93 horsepower? Where am I going wrong here? |

Had a JB4 on my 135I, currently have a JB4 on my X1 35I. Buying a JB4 as soon as I get my M3.
Besides me not having any sort of issues with the JB4, and having awesome power gains at an incredible price! One of many reasons I love having the JB4 is because of Terry's customer service. I had random questions(dumb questions ) on my setup in my 135I and he would reply in a matter of hours....on a SUNDAY nonetheless! Customer service and backing up your products goes a long way for me. |

It looks like another TMC tuning box.
I believe that Vivid Racing also rebrands TMC tuning boxes as the "VRTune Tuning Box". |

Hmmm, they mention they ran the quarter mile in 11.7 seconds with their tune alone. Anyone know the trap speed they ran?

The Turner race team is very successful in the Tudor racing series. It's a tough series. The Turner site is top notch. Tuning is each persons choice. Period. I happen to favor Dinan, that's my choice. I do not rag anyone picking otherwise. It's each persons car, if it blows up, the choice they made will be what they live with. We all want more power, the risks/consequences of that are an individual choice.

Glad there are options tho- competition here is good. Otherwise a crappy tune would sell like crazy and not give optimum results. |
