Appreciate the review, Glad you're happy with the T-500 flash.

We've been doing a ton on testing on this file, with over 100 runfiles on our shop M4 already. We're experiencing the same results as Bring's review, those that have been flashes have been very pleased with the results with the smoothness in power and torque delivery.

ESS is leading the way again on flash tuning for the S55. We're seeing some very good numbers on 91 octane and will be flashing a couple more this week and following up with results.

Correct. The RSA encryption has been the hurdle here but we're seeing big progress in very little time compared to the time it took to see tunes for previous-generation M3s.

I heard that they both perform almost the same. (Performance wise)

Is this a true OBD flash or was there connection directly to the computer to perform this software flash ?
Brings' M3 was bench-flashed at our facility, OBD2 flashing vehicles will be an option soon down the road. We are capable of same-day tuning, as well as dynoing in-house.

More to come.
