DIGITAL TUNE DELIVERY
The tune itself is delivered by email. No physical tune is shipped, and no tracking number is expected.
- Your calibration file and applicable flashing instructions are sent to the email address used at checkout.
- Complete the Tune Configurator for the car exactly as it will be when flashed, and review every selection before checkout.
- A full ECU read is not required unless Poverty Built requests one after reviewing the order.
- Flashing software, licenses, cables, and interfaces are separate unless this listing or your order specifically says they are included.
- If your order also includes a cable or other physical hardware, that item ships separately. A shipping label means the package is being prepared; it is not in transit until the carrier receives it.
Maximize the performance of your BMW N55 single-turbo inline-six with our dyno-tested, road-proven ECU calibrations. Designed for PWG (Pneumatic Wastegate) and EWG (Electronic Wastegate) models, our tunes offer linear power delivery, increased throttle response, and safe, reliable gains across all fuel types.
Supported fuels: 91, 93, 95 pump gas | E30, E50, E85 ethanol blends
Flashing options: Supported maps can be delivered in an MHD-ready format for flashing through MHD. You may instead choose the appropriate Bimmer Tuning Tools QuickFlash-compatible file or another supported format for your preferred compatible flasher. If Poverty Built needs a file read for the ECU/ROM, we will request it; a full read is not required unless asked.
THIS IS A TRUE OTS MAP PACK
For this product, the stage is part of the calibration specification. Choose the stage that matches your turbo setup, supporting hardware, and fuel. Anything labeled Required Mods must be installed for that map. Items labeled Recommended Mods improve consistency, response, or reliability but are not mandatory unless the stage specifically says otherwise.
This pack is designed to compete directly with the familiar MHD map-pack format: a more affordable, performance-focused set of ready-to-flash maps with stronger power targets where the listed hardware and fuel support them. It is not a bespoke, revision-based custom tune.
Tune Configurator choices are selected separately. Choose the exhaust/overrun behavior you want from the available Tune Configurator. Your Tune Configurator selection does not change the stage and does not replace any required hardware or fuel requirement.

Helpful guide
Use the BMW N55 PWG vs EWG identification guide before choosing a map pack. Verify the actual turbo and controller rather than assuming from model year alone.
