Why not just take it to a dealer ?? AFAIK they must be setup on a RR, as load sites have to be held too.

buy and fit a full standalone that you can take anywhere, and it can do anythng.

The Starlets seem to be very awkward with regards to tuning....I guess a standalone could open up a lot more possibilities.

Bexleys is BMW people. And tbh not great either. Whether they'd know the first thing about Forced Induction is debateable in my experience.

Why did you get this setup if you don't know anyone with experience of it?

well on the first engine set up the dastek was fitted and set up by err herm EA as he dose/did ALOT of starlets and on tgtturbo.com they all love him.

didnt really want to take it to BMWorks for that very reason...

If only i could get this software
