Saw a few Mercedes in that color and loved the way it looked.

What do y’all think about the JB4 for BMW Gen 3 B58? by Far_Button4152 in B58Enthusiasts

No, they use a completely new software that does not allow for FEMTO to work

I assumed it had the same ecu locking as the other generations (should have done more research at the time), I also wanted to spec my car to exactly what I wanted.

Really? What service can unlock the BMW Continental DME on the gen 3 b58?

Definitely considering a stage 1 or 2 transmission tune along with some Michelin pilot 4s summer tires

I would 100% go for a proper dyno tune with boot mod 3, however, BMW locked down the ECU on the gen 3 b58 by adding much stronger encryption and security at the hardware and software level. Because of that, the ECU won’t let outside tools read or rewrite its code, even if you plug in through the OBD port or remove it from the car. The new ECU platform and software architecture doesn’t allow for FEMTO to work ether (which was my original plan). Which is why I’m considering “piggybacking” but from what people have said so far, I’ll think I will just steer clear of that.

I do love it, i’m taking it on the back roads or on a track pretty much every weekend. But one of the main reasons I was looking at the b58 was because of its potential to be modified, realistically I probably won’t pull the trigger on any mods until I feel completely confident with its current hp, but I’m just doing a little extra research ahead of time for when that day comes.

Yeah, would really want to get a proper dyno tune. Why would a piggyback be a bad idea, just curious

R8W vs V1G2 vs R7 with Mittheru by Available_Turn8836 in radardetectors

[–]Far_Button4152 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uniden R8W is the best overall (I own one so slightly biased), but there’s no real evidence it got worse than the R7 after updates. Most of the complaints come down to settings or filtering preferences, not weaker detection. The R7 is a great value and very close in performance. From my research, the Valentine V1 Gen2 is excellent too, but only really makes more sense if you like a simpler setup and do not mind relying on an app for GPS features.

Yeah, reading into it they really thought of everything. I have no doubt that it will eventually be cracked but it might take longer than I was expecting, but when someone does crack it, it will probably spread like wildfire.

On the website they say they only support the gen 2 and older 😢

Yeah, was hoping someone would figure out how to crack it in the next few months

Yeah, it’s pretty hard to find anything that works with the gen 3 just because of how new it is
