If your vehicle is a BMW 318i E90 with an original output of 129 hp, this entry provides a starting point for discussing chip tuning. It lists a petrol engine; compatibility with the actual ECU is checked separately.

Figures for this configuration

  • Power: 129 → 141 hp (+12 hp).
  • Torque: 180 → 205 Nm (+25 Nm).
  • 0–100 km/h acceleration: 11.0 → 10.7 s (−0.3 s).
  • Listed maximum speed: 208 → 218 km/h (+10 km/h).

For the factory 129 hp / 180 Nm version, the listed increases correspond to approximately 9.3% more power and 13.9% more torque. These percentages are calculated from this entry and help compare different catalogue configurations.

The comparison applies to this catalogue entry. Confirm the original vehicle specification before ordering; the listed results do not guarantee identical figures on every vehicle.

Choosing additional options

For BMW 318i E90, the form offers Stage 1 / Stage 2 and additional items for the petrol engine: VMax speed limiter adjustment, rev limiter adjustment, Popcorn, selected DTC deactivation, catalyst deactivation, EVAP / DMTL deactivation.

The final selection depends on the actual equipment and ECU version. A selection in the form is a request for confirmation, not a guarantee that every function is supported or required.

For the E90 generation, the software read/write method is agreed after ECU identification. The model badge alone does not identify the required interface or connection procedure.

For a tuning selection for BMW 318i E90, provide the VIN, current software details and requested tasks. This entry is used as a reference after checking that it matches the vehicle.
