Here we install our 3 Channel Pro Petrol chip tuning box to this F97 BMW X3M Competition.
These installation instructions are also applicable to the following model variants: M2, M3, M4 & X4M.
These vehicles currently have a locked ECU with no way to read or write the ECU data. This means that while traditional remapping is impossible, our tuning box can give owners the opportunity to make fantastic gains without requiring a traditional ECU flash. This has the added benefit of being traceless once removed for warranty purposes.
