Custom tuning software

Do any of these 3rd party vendors offer user-programmable tuning software? I've found at least six companies all providing in-house flashes for the Z4M, but none actually sell the software to tune the ECU yourself.

What would it take to purchase this set of software?

are you looking for a handheld device? i know evolve tuning can email you tunes and you can upload them yourself. they can also adjust your tune to your mods

No, just looking for software that would allow a user to self-tune the DME.

That's going to run you some cash.

There's KESS + K-Tag, but all together that's going to run you about 2 grand.

You can check out TunerPro (which is free), but you're going to have to write, or hire someone to write you the xdf file since there's not one here.

There's others, but most of the time tuning software is going to be hard to use and cost a few grand, requiring lots of trial and error. There was a thread somewhere where they mentioned the software that ess and evolve use... but I can't find them right now.

Apologies for bringing this thread back to life... Its really difficult to find info on the Z4M's as there are so few in the world, I've been searching for days and haven't made any real progress so as a last resort i'm bring back this thread in hopes that someone see's it and can advise...

Its been 6 years since the question was originally asked but fast forward to present day, does anyone know of any user-programmable tuning software or possible solutions for the Z4M's?

Look at e90post, N/A section. There’s a nice long thread where Hassmachine cloned/tuned the MSV70 for the N52. According to him the MSV70 is very similar to the MSS70 for the S54 on the Z4 platform.
