tune bm3 bootmod3 m4cs

Hi guys wanted to see if anyone has used bootmod3 FOR A tune? i currently have a M4cs and approaching my 1200 mile service and looking to use bootmod3.
i like that its not a piggyback tune like the JB4 i had for my 2017 m4.
your thoughts and advice.

We've tuned a few M3CS/M4CSs with bootmod3, and one M4CS even running full E85. No problem at all and can return to stock at any time.

Nah, no one has ever used BM3. You'll be the first.

On a more serious note, I never understood why one would want to tune a CS. Different strokes, different folks I suppose.

The BM3 is compatible with your car, i would only do the flash if you are using E85 or upgraded turbo

Asking out of ignorance, but why would you only flash on E85 or upgraded turbos?

Because you have a very good chance of voiding your powertrain warranty on a 1200 mile car (i.e. new with lots of warranty remaining). Is there not enough power for you already?

Well I'm fairly certain that is not at all why he doesn't recommend that. I have no issues voiding my warranty so it isn't a concern of mine.
