So guys with tunes, how easy does your 335i break the tirs loose

jokergerm · 10-31-2010, 04:24 PM

Ive been reading some threads about guys with tunes either the jb3 or procede not being able to get traction in first or second gear

My problem is I have
The jb3 on level 7 and I can't burn out even with the dtc off

Unless I dump the clutch

But some members are saying they at loosing traction in second gear from just flooring the pedal, I can floor my car in 1st gear and not loose traction and it does not even chirp the tires going into 2nd gear

I have the jb3 on level 7 with dtc off and I have the digital boost gauge and I hit about 14.5 lbs of boost and my rear tires are 275 35 19

What does the dci do?

Maybe my car is just slow

tofu- · 10-31-2010, 04:27 PM

if i launch in first gear, i pretty much spin out through the entire thing (AT)

but i'm running 255 all seasons (conti DWS)

jokergerm · 10-31-2010, 04:34 PM

Yes I burn out if I launch but I'm talking about if I just punch it going like 5 mph it does not burn out nor does 2nd gear

Bimmer84 · 10-31-2010, 04:35 PM

I have no performance tunes yet and lose traction on take off until about the end of second gear with paddle shifters...

i lose traction if i floor it from idle in first or second

i wouldn't expect yours to be too bad if you're running good 275's

J02 335i · 10-31-2010, 04:43 PM

Mine is auto and if I floor it at 80km/h the traction lights stays on till 120km/h, or so. I assume it downshifts to second gear. I can't floor it from first or I will have no tires left. I'm running map 5 with DCI and 91 to 94 octane. Try a lower map, do you have any other mods?

jokergerm · 10-31-2010, 04:44 PM

They are sumitomos 275 35 19 they were about 285 each from tire rack

jokergerm · 10-31-2010, 04:46 PM

I have the dual cone intake with jb3 and boost gauge. I have tried all the maps from 0-7 and I can't feel Any difference between any of them even 0

My duramax with the edge chip you can feel it instantly when you change tunes the BMW does not feel any different

EDM92 · 10-31-2010, 04:51 PM

I used to stay put for a little while when I floored it, with my old crappy run flats. Now I'm on Hankook Evo Ventus V12s, and I get traction all the way. Traction is a good thing, as long as you know your car is working properly and you aren't losing boost.

jokergerm · 10-31-2010, 04:55 PM

I was wondering if it was a power issue or if I just get really good traction somehow

I need more power

Would I notice the power increase from down pipes and fmic ?

tofu- · 10-31-2010, 04:58 PM

consistent power with fmic

more power with dp

JayKay335i · 10-31-2010, 05:20 PM

map 7 without supporting mods is a bad idea. That could have something to do with it. Also, isn't map 7 supposed to hit more than 14.5 PSI.

ar design · 10-31-2010, 06:04 PM

Real easily

WWONG · 10-31-2010, 06:06 PM

What do you mean DTC off? If you press DTC and see the DTC text in the dash, it is on actually on, not off. To fully turn of traction (DSC), hold the DTC button until you see the triangle with an exclamation point and an arrow wrapping it. Your wheels should be free then.

Yes i am talking about with the arrow and the circle

Forcefed3 · 10-31-2010, 07:42 PM

I havent had much experience with tirs, but my tires will break loose extremely easy.

Is JB3 your only mod?

e90TiAg335i · 10-31-2010, 08:00 PM

I'm on map 5 also and get really good traction. When I was on map 7 and race fuel, I could easily light the tires up from a dig. I can definetly tell a difference between the maps! Especially with the race fuel.

If you don't have supporting mods i don't think you should run map 7. maybe thats why

. The program knows it doesnt have supporting mods so it kicks it back into stock mod.

I dont normally run map 7, i just said i had tried map 7, normally i try map 5 or map 3

slowSwede · 11-01-2010, 02:34 AM

No tire spinning on my current tires. First thing I did was swap out the runflats for some better ones.
Now wintertires are going back on, so then I'll get wheelspin all over the place.

I'd say you have good tires, that's all.

persian54 · 11-01-2010, 03:32 AM

275 is wide

but I remember when I had 285 on my 335i I still lost traction in map 3... but I had DP and FMIC as well back then

I lose traction now in the Z4 on Map 3 when I launch

but I don't lose traction if I'm rolling
I'm on stock 255s
