Can't you simply post the price in this thread or at least on your website? Seems woefully inefficient to PM, e-mail or field phone calls all day to communicate pricing.

Do previous customers get access to this software and is it the same cable as I got just 3 weeks ago?

Would be a benefit regards if the dealer updated your software etc...

It's not bad to use the same tools but any R&D was done by you guys to check if the tools will work smoothly without errors and make it easy for customers?

There are quite a few software brands / tuners throughout the industry who
will no doubt be using the same flashing protocols with similar flash tools.
We've been testing the process across multiple F-series applications all
weekend, here in the US and with our top dealers in Australia and the UK.


Keep in mind that this is just the delivery mechanism, and the implementation
of these new processes will vary from software brand / tuner to the next. The
difference at the consumer level will be of course the amount of R&D, testing,
and validation that goes into the actual software calibrations, as well as the
level of service and support that will be provided to the end user.

While port flashing is new for F-series cars, we have been supporting other
Audi, BMW, Lamborghini, Porsche, etc... applications with OBDII port flashing quite some time now.

The HEX Flash User Programing Tool is good for one car at a time as it
is locked to the VIN number after the first use.

It would be foolish at this point to make any claims regarding detectability.

As we've been very clear about since our initial software release for the S55
back in 2015, it's best to assume that all forums of software tuning whether
it be a proper ECU flash or piggy back may be detectable if BMW engineers
are actively looking.

The actual software and HEX Flash User Programing Cable are no different
that we've been port flashing for the last 18+ months. The only difference
is that it no longer requires that the ECU be removed and unlocked/patched
on the bench.

They absolutely will be!

They should be making an announcement about it next week as well.
By then they should have HEX Flash Cables in stock.

What about datalogging or custom tuning? Is that functionality available?

We do not provide the ability for custom tuning at the end user level.

Data logging may be a future addition to our HEX Flash Cable, but for
now there are hundreds of other options available to enthusiasts from
consumer level wired/wireless OBDII readers - to professional data
logging equipment.

The website doesn't show (I don't think) the breakdown of what features are available in the various levels:

Power Gains MSRP

HEX Tuning Features Only $895 *
HEX Tuning ZCP Performance and Features $995 *
HEX Tuning STAGE ONE: +60-70hp | +90-100tq $1,095 *
HEX Tuning STAGE TWO: +70-80hp | +115-125tq $1,195 *
HEX Tuning STAGE TWO+: +90-100hp | +125-135tq** $1,295 *
HEX Tuning TCU Software $695

For example, which package would address Launch Control RPM adjustment for those who lost that on the 2017 models?

It's tough to find the information you want but it's either all in these threads or somewhere on their site.

Here's some additional info I was able to find in the past.

Aren't these power gains from a non-ZCP? Other vendors are pricing lower with a fixed price despite either Stage I, II, or III.

Thanks. Yea, I'm searching (what a novelty, I know) through this thread filtering on VF-Engineering's responses:

http://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sho....php?t=1258574

It's time consuming, but I think I found where they said TCU software will give me what I'm looking for.

They are. In the context of these OTS VF maps, once tuned, ZCP or non-ZCP will return very similar results.
