bootmod3: CustomROM release - Map Switching, Flex Fuel, AntiLag, New Map Editor...

The most comprehensive bootmod3 software update is finally here and we're delighted to share it with everyone!

Multiple features have been in development since mid 2020, many of which have been demo-ed to public throughout the time we were developing them. In December 2020 we completed development on the pre 2019 software S55s. We decided to finish 2019+ support as well and release it all together. It has endured a considerable delay from the initially planned release but we’ve managed to cover everything and in the process add even more functionality to the Map Editor and cover testing more extensively.

Our first release of the bootmod3 CustomROM is now ready for the S55 engine vehicles while we continue to work on adding these features to other vehicles in the bootmod3 lineup. Changes done for the S55 are being ported to the N55 vehicles followed by the B58.

To read about the bootmod3 CustomROM features available on the S55 engine refer to document below:

bootmod3 CustomROM Release - BMW S55 Engine

To read about the changes in the new bootmod3 Map Editor, refer to this document:

bootmod3 Map Editor Release

For Tuning Tables overview for Map Switching, Flex Fuel and AntiLag refer to this document:

bootmod3 CustomROM Tuning - S55 Engine

We've made Stage 1 and 2 OTS maps available that enable all of the features in CustomROM:

Stage 1 FlexFuel AntiLag MultiMap
Stage 2 FlexFuel AntiLag MultiMap


Dyno graph of the above mentioned OTS Stage 2 (mods: downpipes and 70% octane in the tank) also attached. This map scales from pump gas Map Slots 1-4 to Flex Fuel with the presence of the Zeitronix ECA2 CANBus board and a Continental Flex Fuel sensor.

At the moment the update is up on the Web (bootmod3.net) and you'll need the updated OBD Agent for flashing which downloads automatically as an update.

For anyone looking to convert an existing map to custom ROM to get the AntiLag feature added with its default values which, given the level of the hardware setup on your car, may not be ideal for what you're looking to accomplish and in that case dialing in any feature in CustomROM should be done with your custom tuner of choice.

Outside of that, all of the features in CustomROM including various steering wheel controls for map switching, antilag, checking ethanol content in-dash on the RPM gauge (no laptop or app needed), are explained at length. As with all of our features, we always continue to improve all aspects of the system as well as our OTS maps and you can be sure there'll be more to follow!

Am I just an idiot? I've read through several of these updates, and prob don't even need them, but because of the video's that were referenced several times I want to watch them.

Where are the video's? I'm prob being dumb but a lil help would be appreciated

If your dme is older than 06/2020, then it needs to be connected on bench with special tools to introduce a small hack in the data to allow OBD writing. As long as that remains in place the DME can be programmed with custom data over OBD.






What concerns me about the above is what will happen to the flash counter as people test and flash again and again? The DME officially has 60 OBD flashes allowed.
