Just tuned xHP on my G20 330i. Went to Stage 2, and it makes a huge difference. Feels like it's putting down like 30 whp more, in every gear, and very smooth power delivery. It's a blast to drive the car, even when you're not going fast.
You can shave another 0.5sec off your 0-60 (if you have a ZF8 auto box), by not using launch control at all, just hold it on the brake rev to 2300 and then floor it as you let off the brake. Feather the throttle with your foot to minimise wheelspin. Much faster than any other method.
I have a PWG N55 stage 2. That runs a 4.69. I never knew I had launch control? Is of faster down the strip? 13 535 XI-M Sport. Usually shifting at 6600 rpm. How much faster is drag mode' down the1/4? Thanks
@@SimonGa23torque converter is just filled with fluid, basically you are spinning the fluid. Holding the rev a couple times the fluid may heat up a little bit but won’t do much harm
Thank you for showing this setting. You really need to drop the $150 and get a Dragy so you can instantly see the difference when you mod your cars. Impressive. Keep the good lessons/information coming!
When I use xDelete the car is undriveable. Launches are a joke, you can use these same settings to reduce the launch torque which is great for you RWD guys.
What did you guys have to set it to for RWD? I am RWD 450whp/450wtq and don't rly wanna do 10 launches just to find the right settings since it's a lot of wear on tires etc
Just make sure you change your trans fluid every 30k miles if you’re planning on running stage 3. Currently using ATF 1800 luqi Molly trans fluid and it runs fine. Just make sure you flush out the rest of oem fluid. Don’t want cross contamination so I suggest buying 14 quarts of it.
Brian will this not over stress the box as its putting more torque on it...i was offerd a flash on my 435d xdrive f33 running at 360bhp 700nm ....what is the pros and cons dude
I have an M4 and would LOVE to be able to put my power down better. Not sure this would help 700Nm RWD. Plus you have to fully turn off traction control in order for launch control to work.
Curious about the warning to let the transmission adapt for at least 50 miles after the flash? You just flashed and stepped on it, but will that have any effect on normal transmission shift properties. Does this change the line pressures internally during just launch control or permanently for all conditions? Thanks,
Xhp ups line pressure even with out lc turned on. Xhp removes the stock torque limits in the trans and allows for my line pressure so that the clutches hold better
Questions for launch control I need to press the gas pedal all way to the end ?? And my other question is traction control need to be enable or disable??
Flashed it an hour ago. The whole progress went smooth. But when it is done. I started the engine and got Chassis Stabilization Malfunction error. Now I can't use sport and sport + mode. I tried flash it stage 1 and 2. Same error when start the engine.
Down pipe, full exhaust, hpfp, lpfp, air intake, turbo inlet, aluminum charge pipe, large intercooler and turbo smart blow off valve with a custom bm3 tune.
I don’t have xhp on my 235, but I do have MHD and I can adjust the power by gear. I’ve never touch those settings, would it essentially be the same thing? I am on stock wheels (18x8.5) and I do not have the MP LSD, so I get pretty bad wheel spin off the line and would like to optimize my launch so I can actually start doing them.
Hi Bryan, I just picked up a 2014 435i with M Sport pkg. I want to get 400hp without breaking the bank because I'm on a budget but not a tight one. My Youngest son owns a 335I coupe and he has upgraded and pushing about 440hp he said I don't need a lot of bolt on parts maybe intake, JB4 tune kit and maybe down pipes with BOV. I want to spend no more than $$2000 over time nor rush but easiest first! Oh my car has the base everything for the entry M Sport... saw your video in the larger display but I want to add that with NAV! Your advise Sir is welcomed and my son will do all my work... I have allergies... :) :)
Is there a launch control usage limit on BMW DCTs? For example, Lotus is said to stipulate no more than 20 times for the life of the unit, and full service required every 5
I thought the manual F30's didn't have launch control. In Bimmercode I can't find the option to enable launch control. I know where the options are located for the auto's just not manuals.
Now idk if I’m doing this wrong but i have a 2013 n55 335i x drive i just can’t seem to launch the car to where those flags come up. All i get is a brake launch to where my car makes a grinding noise and I’m forced to let off the brake..? Somebody help
@Kies Motorsports I have a 2013 328i with 90k miles, I put it in sport mode and run it through its gears.. id say once a month tops... MAYBE twice a month. today i put it in sport + and used launch control, while it was awesome, i am wondering how much damage i just did considering i want to keep this car for 200K + miles how often is this stuff permitted. (also note; i do routine maintenance and i take good care of it)
Any possible issues from the higher torque (including and not limited to upgrades you have made to your car + extra torque from xHP) on the stock driveshaft/differential ? Or do you have an M3 driveshaft/differential?
You have to use bimmer code and go into expert mode ...thicf30 channel has the tutorial...I have it in my 2014 328i xdrive sulev after I used bimmer code
Does the i3 have launch control and can that be customized? BMW really made the software provide a smooth start from 0-15kmph on the i3. I did read somewhere that the reason was due to reducing wear on the brackets holding the motor so if that ever becomes possible I would not launch often.

I didn’t know these had launch control!
By the way the ghosting effect was so cool!!
Tommy L Garage if the bmw has sport mode it most likely has launch control. Even my older 2010 328i had launch control.
Only msport model available launch control
Good luck getting it to work if you don’t have a tuned tcu.
I can’t get mines to work mmmmmm
Thank you for showing this setting. You really need to drop the $150 and get a Dragy so you can instantly see the difference when you mod your cars. Impressive. Keep the good lessons/information coming!
Brilliantly simple way to show the launch difference
Take it yours is xdrive, my rwd spins up every time using xhp LC on super sports.
Yep i have a 2014 335i, on pilot sport 4's and she loves to spin
Yeah his is xdrive
@@keithhasafastcar im stage 2 with sport 4's... im gonna spinnnnnn

Does xhp add launch control to auto E series (non DCT)
reliability of a transmission tune ?

Center m sport wheel trim carbon fiber looks great
Can you do this flash if you have the bootmod3 ECU flash? It won’t disrupt anything with bootmod3?
I'd like to know as well!
Yes you can. Xhp does not effect any tuner
It won’t disrupt anything DME/ECU related. This flashes the TCU not the DME.
Best contents as always! Very thorough and informative! Keep up the good work Bryan! P.s. will you be testing out xdelete?
Would love to see a video about that.
Pretty cool ghost effects
My 330d does 0 to 63 in 5.6 with no mods💯 has 256hp 416 ib torque 2017 plate
What about practicality. Does it seem to improve acceleration off the line on mildly aggressive throttle input?
Hi:) I currently Using a Custom map stage 2 on my Car and can I still flash this XHP stage 3 TCU in?
Yes u can.
Yeah
Amazing what can be coded on this chassis! Great vid!
unintentional pun at 0:18 "if so, stay tuned"
Video on the xdelete for F30?
Brian will this not over stress the box as its putting more torque on it...i was offerd a flash on my 435d xdrive f33 running at 360bhp 700nm ....what is the pros and cons dude
How would this interfere with my ecu custom tune?
Would is mess with it?
I have a custom e50 tune
Would xhp interfere with that at all?
Will this work on the E9x series?
Where's the draggy to prove timees?

Great ?
Did you leave the stick over in sport mode or shift it back to the right after you launched
Leave it
Hey Brian does XHP support diesel BMW? Like 320d, 420d, 430d etc? Thanks good work, subscribed.
How does this differ from the BM3 boost by gear and transmission flash?
BM3 transmission flash is really basic. This is wayyyy different. And the results are a lot more noticeable with xHP.
Questions for launch control I need to press the gas pedal all way to the end ?? And my other question is traction control need to be enable or disable??
how about central differential? when wheels arent spinning(sliping) presure is huge on that differential, i broke mine, it costed 3.2k euros for me.
how u break it
I have a 2015 BMW 320i, do these have launch control?
Davski no, but using bimmercode, it can be coded in for 40 bucks.
Only cars with the sport package or msport package have it i beleive
Does the Thor dongle work with MHD to flash tunes?
Sorry everyone, I messed up two things... This isn't available on Manual cars yet or for the F80/F82
Does kies motorsport deliver international, I'm in South Africa
Does the XHP flashtool work with a 328i X-drive? I see its offered for the 328d xdrive, isn't that similar?
@@cedodragjovanovic3600 I checked the website and I didn't see any flash for the 328

Took me 8 minutes to notice that you've had a haircut. Looks good :)
I have a f20 m135i xdrive with no launch control. Can i activate launch control with the xhp software?
FK_Carspecials those should have launch control. If not then check out BimmerCode!
Can anyone help me with the best Launch Control calibration for 2016 f30 335 RWD…XHP stage 2
Would bootmod3 do the same?
Hey man, is this only for launching or is it through all of 1st and 2nd? Like if i roll out will it be much faster too?
cool
Can u turn it up to 40% and do it
Please tell us which model of BMW ? 3.20 , 3.30 ?
Do you know if 2013 F30 XDrive automatic has launch control?
If not just code it
Flashed it an hour ago. The whole progress went smooth. But when it is done. I started the engine and got Chassis Stabilization Malfunction error.
Now I can't use sport and sport + mode. I tried flash it stage 1 and 2. Same error when start the engine.
Hey guys, I am building a F12 N55 640i convertible. Now will the thor work with my 2012. XHP has a flash for my transmission
Does this work along side Boot Mod 3?
It sure does!
@@xZen0sx Is there any over lap between the two systems? is XHP more for just Transmission tuning and BM3 for power variables?

Hey Patrick, if you email us at info@kiesmotorsports.com, we can put a list together for you!
Is there a launch control usage limit on BMW DCTs? For example, Lotus is said to stipulate no more than 20 times for the life of the unit, and full service required every 5
That's a stupid restriction especially if it's a life time of only 20. I'd return that car!
Anyone else loose their upshift brap noise once flashing?
if i coded in sport+ on 328i xdrive, does that enable basic launch control?
How can I increase the 3 seconds time for the launch control? 🤔
Just hold it down longer?
Brian , does this work on a 328i xdrive 2016 ??? Checked on the link but it only shows 328D xdrive ...
do you need the F series DME bench unlock to flash?
i have a f30 330i sport does it have launch control?
I thought the manual F30's didn't have launch control. In Bimmercode I can't find the option to enable launch control. I know where the options are located for the auto's just not manuals.
It may just be automatic, I'm not sure
what if you dont have sport + mode in f30 base line
Is this the same thing as the transmission tune? Or are they two seperate things? I don’t like the hesitations between shifts on my 440i.
It is a trans tune with an additional feature to customize LC and other things
Now idk if I’m doing this wrong but i have a 2013 n55 335i x drive i just can’t seem to launch the car to where those flags come up. All i get is a brake launch to where my car makes a grinding noise and I’m forced to let off the brake..? Somebody help
Sport plus sport transmission mode brake all the way down then gas all the way down
Does the manual f30’s come with launch control?
No
Whelp I have a 13’ 335i xDrive “Sportline” Edition and I don’t get the checkered flags....could it be because it’s not the M sport edition?
I have a 2013 also. Only the 2014+ have launch control
Why does mine want to take off on me before i even take my foot off the brake? Anyone thanks in advance
Would this work on a 2015 F30 328i XDrive?
Can this be done on Bmw m3 F80 competition?

Maybe it works on stock cars.
What do you mean mate? Looking at it for my stage 2 435d
Your paddles, do you sell them?
do xhp has xdrive disable for the f30?
It's xhp xdelete for rwd option, not xhp gearbox map
Any possible issues from the higher torque (including and not limited to upgrades you have made to your car + extra torque from xHP) on the stock driveshaft/differential ? Or do you have an M3 driveshaft/differential?
I have a 2014 335i sitting right around 450whp. I drive it like its stolen and have yet to have any drivetrain issues
Isnt the transmission the bigger concern? I've read some people say it can't handle much more than 400tq
Wheels?
Launch controll on all models? I have a 13 f31 320i
Steffen Fossli all models basically have it, just need to get it coded. My 328i didnt have it but once i coded it i was able to use it
The screen on my xhp os different
Can the app install Launch Control?
why does the seatbelts have to be connected while flashing?
Micke when the seatbelts are clicked in the ecu’s will not shut down while you are flashing the tune
I only ever get one good launch out of my car then it seems to limit power and rev slower, is this because the transmission is overheating?
