  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

TE511: power-up plug, JD tuner, Power Commander V or zip-ty

New to the site: Put this under "General" then thought it would be better here.

Got a '13 511. Bought the power-up plug from the dealer and put it in. Ordered an FMF slip on; haven't gotten it yet.

Question: What is the value of a JD or PCV above the power-up plug or having zip-ty (or someone else) reprogram the PCU. Do the JD and/or PCV just provide programmability or do they provide performance in-and-of themselves?
 
You basically need the zipty remap or PCV, or JD if you're going to put that FMF on. The bike is too lean from the factory without it.
 
Danny is right; you will need to do something regardless.

To answer your question, yes you will get performance gains along with tunability above power-up plug and the BMW #3 re-flash.

The BMW #3 re-flash is very good but not perfect like a PCV dyno tune would be (I am using Zip Ty re-flash with the TXC Akra, thanks Danny).

I'd imagine the FMF would have less restriction than the TXC Akra, and I'd say mine is running more on the lean vs. rich side with just the #3 map.
