No problem! And that’s the beauty of being able to customize it to your preferences! Is your exhaust stock? I could see liking the OEM burbles a little more if I didn’t have a muffler/resonator

I hope this video helps you decide which burble setting you like best without having to flash your car over and over! Which one would you go with? I went with soft at .7s in sport and none in base.
When you have catless dp with straight mid section and m performance back box, soft is already extremely loud, oem is do-able, but off still best for me. E82 dct n55 here
yeah once you start getting bigger pipes with less restrictions the burbles started giving me headaches, especially for a daily. mine set to 0 as well F30 b58. Sound of the turbo is better anyways
@@HargunSV I can imagine man. I have actually turned mine down to OEM style since making this video because even on the soft setting it can pop really loudly when the exhaust is warmed up. If I didn't have a resonator and muffler I'm not sure I would want synthetic burbles either.
Greatly appreciated as a new owner of a n54 with mhd, catless and muffler delete I'm going to try medium .5 second. It might be fun to run it for a day or so every now and again
I don't like the gunshot burble tunes either, especially with automatics & 4 bangers (VW golfs). The N55 i6 single turbo has among the best sounding exhausts. I have the larger factory BMW performance exhaust. The deep sound with no OPF filters unlike newer cars, sets it apart. I usually don't enable any burbles.

Yeah man of course. I made it for all the people that like me when I was looking for a video that compared all the burble tunes but disappointed not to find one. I see why no one made it before though because it was a lot of work lol
IMO: 1000-3000Rpms - 1s duration at soft setting 3000-5000Rpms - 1s duration at medium setting 5000rpms to redline - 0.5s duration at hard setting But any bet the software doesn’t allow you to set based on RPM range using this feature 😏 This is why it’s just best to cal in the base ignition MAP along the deceleration columns, your own spark retard, injector overrun and throttle opening angle during deceleration. Along that column, you’ll have cells per rpm range/increment where you can be less/more aggressive to one’s own liking.
Thank you so much for mentioning that you can disable the pops and bangs by turing sport mode off! I was wondering if that is possible with MHD, since most "custom" tuners in my area said that its complicated to do because the e9x series doesen't have "driving modes". Thank you !🙌
I have an Eisenmann sport exhaust with a de cat, sounds quiet as hell, unless you put your foot down. I rather not put burbles but I have to otherwise too quiet, I put on soft for 0.5sec I get the realistic sounding burbles, but every now and then if you drive it fast you do get big pop, I'm pretty sure I'm spitting out flames when that happens!
Excellent! Are the loud aggressive burbles as common in Germany as they are here in the states? Pretty much anytime I see a modified BMW it has loud burbles.

@@JasonJoyrides maybe a comparison of the mhd v1.60 & v1.84 maps. I go back and forth between stage 1 v1.84 & stage 1+ v1.60 and I notice a bit of a difference in daily driving but I've never had a chance, or an area for that matter, to do some consistent comparisons.
@@base1y hmmm interesting. I didn’t notice a difference myself but I didn’t leave them on for long and assumed the 1.84 would probably be better since that’s why MHD released them. What differences have you noticed in daily driving?
@@JasonJoyrides stage 1+ v1.60 I feel like the turbo kicks in a little earlier around 2k where as with stage 1 v1.84 it's at about 2.5k. Also, with v1.84 the power seems to feel like a kick in the back and then taper off in the higher rev ranges whereas v1.60 it comes on more smoothly and lasts higher in the revs. I have a BMS intake and Speedlogic turbo inlet pipe so that may account for something 🤷. I've been rolling around with stage 1 v1.84 mostly because in "comfort mode" it shifts earlier and seems to be better on gas and I don't mind flicking the paddle a couple of times if I need to make a quick pass.
hey sir! WHat do you think about soft duration 1.0s WITH 200 CELL HIGH FLOW CAT? (I have DCE Parts 200cell downpipe with heatshield will it be fine? Or it will damage the cat?)
@@patrikturu truthfully I think anything above OEM style is going to be damaging overtime. Even on the soft settings, when my exhaust warms up it still sounds like an AK. The OEM Style sounds pretty rowdy when you let off above 4-5K RPMs too when it gets hot. If you are trying to play it safe I would have to say OEM Style is the only setting you should go for. If that isn’t loud enough for you though, soft won’t be nearly as bad as medium or hard, so at least you aren’t inflicting that much damage. But over time I think it’s life will definitely be shortened a little. Just my opinion though I’m no expert!
Do you mean unlock the ECU like the new cars require? These older cars don’t require an ECU unlock to tune them. There is a “long flash” that is completed the first time you tune with MHD, but it is just like a normal flash just it takes a little longer because MHD is being installed on the DME.
@@joebiscuit2005 I gotcha bro. So you have the B48 engine which is not supported by MHD. I have a friend who tuned his B48 with MG Flasher and had good things to say about it though. I suggest taking a look on MG FLasher’s website to see if they have anything that peaks your interest. I don’t think you have to have your B48 DME unlocked to use MG Flasher but don’t quote me on that! If so, you would need to either have a local shop do that or you can send it in to Kies Motorsports to have them unlock it for you. I think it’s only a couple hundred bucks. www.mgflasher.com/home/engineb48/
@@joebiscuit2005 Oops I said B48 sorry man I wasn’t sure how much you knew already haha. Not sure what you’re getting out of it with the JB4 but I will say my friend with a 230i used MG Flasher and was pulling on his brother with a stock 340i so I know you can at least get decent power out of the B46. Wish I could help more but you obviously know more than me and to be honest I really only know about N55s so far because that’s where all of my research has been.
@chester2049 you can buy a tune from Tork Motorsports, Eurocompulsion, or a couple other places and have them add the burble settings so that it burbles every time you let off the gas. But mine is on the stock tune and only backfires on upshifts if you shift just right. It’s fun, kinda keeps you working for it because it’s not a sure thing that it will.
