  • so much steps i'd rather get a nissan gtr 2011

  • @furiouskid100 This is the long way around. You can program it to use the M button and all you do is hit the M button and you are ready to launch. Still nothing wrong with the GTR as an alternate choice.

  • Thank you very very much! Will this also work with my M5?

  • @WeezyBestRapperAlive Absolutely .... M5 2006 through 2010 ...same as M6.

  • @RidesChannel Hey great vid. How bad is this on the tranny? Can I do launch control as much as I want? Please inform me, thanks.

  • @The0rangePanda Very hard on the tranny. I had to change the smg controller $6k usd after a while. Luckily it was covered under warranty.

  • @sebasf430 Yes, if you have an SMG, it should be the same. I used to use it when I had my '05.

  • Nice vehicle! It's the same procedure one the E46 M3 as well, if it's equipped with SMG. As far as I can recall, it was sport, DSC off, turn the shift mode to 6, first gear, floor it and release the shift lever. GO...

  • Any clues why USA versions revs only 1.5k rpms, and EU-models 4k?

  • @RidesChannel great video man! Will this work with the M3 E46?

  • @furiouskid100 Yeah if u got no kids

  • @ObbiShade no the BMW system is different you don't press break you hold the lever forward and the computer applys the break

  • 2:04 I see you've already tried a few times! :D

  • @ObbiShade eruo specs hit 4000 revs. US 1500. Dunno why (fuel emissions maybe?!)
