If going from Thor GTS or CS flash to XHP stage 3, it is a noticeable difference but not anything huge to blow your mind

Thor GTS is quite a big positive difference from BM3 GTS as well

Would be a substantial difference. Stock CS DCT is the same as Thor CS DCT. And its a substantial difference going from Thor GTS DCT to XHP stage 3

I have just tested high rpm shifts of the Thor GTS and the XHP stage 3 on my BM3 E30 Stage 2 OTS tuned F80 M3.

On Thor GTS DCT tune, I can feel that the shifts are more spongier and softer as if it's shifting on an elastic band.

Whereas on the XHP stage 3, I can feel that the shifts are firmer and crispier as if the shifts are solid and the torque from the BM3 E30 OTS map is being comfortably controlled.

Anyone else have the same feeling?

Im confused with the slider for tq reduction in this app. Lets just say I slide it to 650 on the slider. Does that mean its reducing tq by 650ftlb or limiting the tq TO 650ftlb?

Had to shelve this video for a couple weeks due to unforeseen circumstances, but FINALLY got around to posting my full guide/review and first drive with xHP flash for our cars.
There is soooo much customization, it can make your head spin.
Hands down, world's different than the bootmod3 gts trans flash. And I go over this in the video. I know it's on the longer side, but hopefully a newbie (like I was) finds the step-by-step guide and feedback helpful

BadBoostedBMWM3 · 11-22-2020, 07:38 PM

Anymore feedback?

andrei.m4 · 11-22-2020, 11:40 PM

what kind of feedback you need? pee on gts cs dct maps. my jerks on comfort mode 3->2 disappeared in 50-60km after install stage3 xhp.

SE7EN335 · 11-23-2020, 04:30 AM

Just flashed it. So far way less clunky in normal D (like the default settings when u turn the car on) especially the 3-2 and 2-1 downshifts and shifts are crisper in manual S3.

Shadow2 · 11-25-2020, 11:17 PM

Is the license transferable? Meaning can I sell it when/if I sell the car? Like you can with Bootmod3?

Ed_rx7 · 11-27-2020, 12:53 AM

Do you need to buy both packs or can you buy just one with ots maps? As j is don’t plan on messing with settings etc?
