Where to start?

Postby totalnoob » Fri Mar 24, 2023 12:31 pm

Hi,

I am a total noob in ECU tuning. I tried finding the "start here if you are new section" but I could not locate one.

So, I have an F32 420d BMW automatic. On that ecutrader thing I see a €145 for a 220HP TUNING REMAP.
https://www.ecutrader.com/download/bmw-f32-2-0d-0281030873-1037536303-edc17c56-2014-autotuner-obd-vr-220hp-tuning-remap-no-checksum-120-2mb-bin

1) I guess that would fit an automatic too?
2) What else do I need to do the job? One of those OBDII things? Software?
3) The engine code I have is N47T but it is not listed in the remap file??

Thanks guys! Sorry for asking reaaaaly basic questions...
