Stock to 95 Stage1 with Catless downpipes
Unlock the full potential of your F80 M3 or M4 with our Stage 2 performance conversion — the ultimate performance upgrade for those chasing real-world power and fuel-flex gains without sacrificing daily reliability.
This package builds on the solid foundation of Stage 1 by adding a cold air intake system, taking advantage of higher octane fuels, and delivering a more aggressive tune calibrated for maximum torque and top-end power.
INCLUDED IN STAGE 2 PACKAGE:
1. Stage 2 ECU Tune (Bootmod3 / MHD)
Recalibrates ignition timing, boost targets, fueling, and torque strategies to suit increased airflow and fuel quality.
Supports multi-map switching for 95, 98, and E30 ethanol blend fuels.
Tailored for setups with upgraded intake and catless or high-flow downpipes.
Gains by fuel grade:
| Fuel Type | Est. Gains |
|---|---|
| 95 Octane | +40–50 kW / +130–150 Nm |
| 98 Octane | +60+ kW / +160–180 Nm |
| E30 Blend | +80+ kW / +200–250 Nm |
Tuning is done via OBD using Bootmod3 or MHD — with live datalogging, custom burble settings, cold start delete, and optional transmission tuning support (ZF8 or DCT).
2. Cold Air Intake System
Improves airflow efficiency and turbo response
Increases induction sound and spool characteristics
Designed for cooler, denser intake charge under high load
Popular options: Eventuri, MST, BMS, FTP
Combined with the Stage 2 tune, the intake helps reduce turbo lag and supports consistent airflow at higher boost levels.
3. High-Octane or Ethanol Fuel Support
98 Octane: Offers a cleaner, more knock-resistant burn — optimal for power tuning and smoother ignition timing.
E30 Blend: Allows for even higher boost and timing advance for dramatic gains in horsepower and torque.
For non-Competition models, an upgraded low-pressure fuel pump (LPFP) may be required when running E30 or higher ethanol mixes.
OPTIONAL UPGRADES (Highly Recommended)
| Component | Benefit |
|---|---|
| Catless Downpipes | Reduce backpressure, unlock more power and turbo spool |
| Charge Pipes | Reinforced pipes reduce failure risk under high boost |
| Upgraded Intercooler | Lowers intake temps and prevents heat soak under load |
| xHP DCT/Auto Tune | Sharper shifts, increased torque handling, enhanced response |
DYNO ESTIMATES (DEPENDING ON FUEL TYPE & SETUP)
| Configuration | Output (kW / Nm) |
|---|---|
| Stage 2 on 98 Octane | ~370–390 kW / 680–720 Nm |
| Stage 2 on E30 Blend | ~400–430+ kW / 750–800+ Nm |
DRIVING CHARACTERISTICS AFTER STAGE 2
Throttle Response: Sharper and more immediate
Boost Delivery: Quicker spool, sustained torque curve
Sound: More induction noise and deeper exhaust note (especially with DPs)
Power Band: Stronger midrange and no power taper at the top-end
CONSIDERATIONS
| Factor | Note |
|---|---|
| Fuel Quality | E30 requires precise blending or a flex-fuel kit |
| Fuel System | Base F80 (non-Comp) may need upgraded LPFP |
| Emissions Compliance | Catless systems are not road-legal in all areas |
| Tuning Safety | All tuning is dyno-tested and AFR-monitored |
WHO STAGE 2 IS FOR
Drivers who want serious power gains without touching turbos
Enthusiasts upgrading from Stage 1 or already running a downpipe
Those ready to experiment with ethanol blends or 98 octane
Anyone wanting an OEM+ driving feel with tuned aggression

95 Octane to 98 Octane
98 Octane to E30
Step into elite-level performance with our Stage 3 BMW F80 M3/M4 conversion — a no-compromise build that pushes the limits of the S55 platform while retaining street-driveability. Designed for the enthusiast ready to go beyond bolt-ons, Stage 3 is where hybrid turbos, upgraded fueling, and advanced tuning come together to create a machine capable of delivering 520+ horsepower with ruthless efficiency.
Whether you’re chasing high trap speeds at the strip, dominating roll races, or just want the most powerful version of your M, Stage 3 delivers on all fronts — while still maintaining the DNA that made the F80 iconic.
INCLUDED IN STAGE 3 PACKAGE:
1. Hybrid Turbo Upgrade
Replaces factory turbos with high-output hybrid units featuring:
CNC-machined billet compressor wheels
Reinforced bearings for higher RPMs
Enlarged turbine housings for higher flow
Brands: Pure800, TTE700/TTE777, Vargas GC+, Kratos, Carbahn
Power Potential:
🔹 Up to 522–560+ kw
🔹 Increased boost capacity (28–35 PSI depending on fuel)
🔹 Improved top-end and torque delivery at high RPM
2. Upgraded Fuel System
To support higher boost and ethanol blends, your fuel system needs serious reinforcement:
High-Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP): XDI or Dorch Stage 2+
Low-Pressure Fuel Pump (LPFP): Precision Raceworks or Fuel-It
Port Injection (Optional): Additional fueling under WOT, paired with a controller (AIC, SplitSecond)
Flex Fuel Sensor (Recommended): Enables true E85 or blend-on-the-fly capability
Without these upgrades, the factory system will fuel-cut or lean out under high load.
3. Custom Stage 3 ECU Tune
Full recalibration of the ECU to optimize turbo response, fueling strategy, ignition timing, and boost curve
Built to match your exact setup, from turbo spec to fuel blend
Includes:
Boost-by-gear
Adjustable burbles
Launch control optimization
Full map switching (e.g. 98, E30, E85)
Tuning Platforms: Bootmod3 (Custom), MHD Custom, Ecutek, MoTeC (standalone optional)
4. Supporting Mods (Mandatory at this Level)
| Component | Function |
|---|---|
| Downpipes (Catless or 200-cell) | Reduces backpressure, maximizes turbo efficiency |
| Upgraded Intercooler | Prevents heat soak during sustained boost |
| Aluminum Charge Pipes | Prevents boost leaks at high PSI |
| Upgraded Inlets/Outlets | Reduces restriction, improves airflow to/from turbos |
| Full Exhaust System | Allows the engine to breathe at top-end |
DYNO ESTIMATES (DEPENDING ON CONFIGURATION)
| Setup | Output |
|---|---|
| Hybrids + 98 Octane | 460–490 kw |
