Drag Race Mode is designed to get the most out of your transmission and improve your 0-60 and 60-120 times! Torque reduction during shifts is completely disabled, shift pressures are maxed out and clutch protection thresholds are raised so you can put the full power of your engine to the ground no matter what happens.

Drag Race Mode is automatically engaged during Launch Control and in Sport+/DSC OFF (8-speed) or Manual (6-speed) mode when above approximately 40% throttle. Normal daily driving in Comfort mode is unaffected.

(Available for 6-Speed and 8-Speed)

xHP lets you adjust parameters like launch-RPM, wheel-slip, brake-boost torque and much more to help you improve your performance off the line! Your BMW's launch control is configured for a stock vehicle, but on tuned vehicles this needs to be readjusted to get optimal performance. Easy to understand sliders make adjustments to your Launch Control a matter of seconds.

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed and 8-Speed)

You can freely configure the clutch engagement RPM and how fast the clutch kicks in on your DCT transmission! Wether you want to have an effective launch, or just let your rear tyres create long rubber-marks is up to you.

(Available for 7-Speed DCT)

Save lots of shifts during city driving, by applying this function. The transmission will always stay in 2nd gear at standstill, which creates a relaxed and very comfortable driving experience.

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

Let's choose whether the transmission shifts to 1st or 2nd Gear when stopped in M-Mode.

(Available for 6-Speed only applies to M-mode)

For very high-power applications, we recommend activating the Line Pressure Bump. This will further increase the transmission line pressure by approx. 15% to increase the torque capacity of the transmission. 

The Line Pressure is dependent on actual torque from the engine and this option is only active in high-torque situations, not during normal cruising. Only activate if needed, e.g. when getting Clutch-Slip in 6th Gear (8HP) or 4th Gear (6HP).

(Available for 6-Speed and 8-Speed)

In 6-speed gearboxes, the lock-up clutch remains open during cold running to deliberately create slippage in the torque converter. This function allows the user to disable the warm-up phase and skip the torque converter slip for the first few minutes of driving. After a few seconds of driving, the lock-up clutch starts to work.

(Available for 6-Speed)

This custom setting can be used to disable decoupling permanently. Decoupling at a standstill is a comfort and fuel economy feature of 6-Speed and 8-Speed transmissions, that minimizes vibration at a standstill and reduces fuel consumption. However, it can cause problems on older transmissions (jerkiness) and/or may add some lag, when taking off. Disabling gives a more direct response when taking-off.

(Available for 6-Speed and 8-Speed)

Choose if your vehicle starts moving as soon as you release the brake, or only when touching the throttle.

(Available for 7-Speed DCT)

The Stop-Go function makes the transmission stay in 2nd Gear at a standstill when a traffic jam situation is recognized. You can choose to turn this function on or off! 

(Available for 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

Save up to 0.5L/100km with our ECO-Mode! This function sets your transmission to ECO-Mode but without the sluggish throttle response usually associated with ECO-Pro mode. This makes saving fuel much easier and more comfortable than the factory ECO-Pro mode. The function is only active in D-Comfort, other driving modes (D-Sport, S-Sport, manual, etc.) are unaffected.

(Available for 8-Speed)

Coasting allows the car to disengage from gear and idle or stop the engine as soon as the driver releases the accelerator. This function can be used to suppress coasting

(Available for specific 8-Speed)

Most BMWs shut down their engines when coming to a full stop in Comfort Mode. You can use this function to suppress Start/Stop completely.

(Available for 8-Speed)

Many BMW standard calibrations use higher shift points in cruise mode when the gear lever is in "S" or "Sport/Sport+". For example, the transmission won't engage 8th gear during cruise in Sport mode.

If this option is switched on, the transmission maintains the normal, lower shift points in cruise mode, even in sport modes.

(Available for 8-Speed)

Our powerful shiftmap editor, comes with 4 different presets, to adjust shifting to your liking. Every preset can also be adjusted freely. You can adjust each upshift or downshift in D and S-mode by a huge range to fit your environment. When you're done you can save your work in 3 custom slots and also export and share those settings easily!

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

Enable this option if you want to use the stock shift points, instead of those from our OTS Maps.

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

Configure the firmness of your DCT's shifts. You can configure the amount of torque that is added on each shift, to smooth out your DCT shifts, or make them even more punchy!

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

Fine tune your shifts to your engine tune! xHP lets you setup how much torque reduction the gearbox requests from the engine during upshifts. Lowering the amount of torque reduction can reduce turbo lag after shifts. Raising the torque reduction can produce faster/crisper and more audible shifts.

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed and 8-Speed)

True manual means that when you're in manual mode, the car won't upshift when the engine reaches the redline. Instead, it will just run into the rpm limiter, just like a car with a manual transmission. The rpm limiter will still protect the engine from over-revving. xHP allows you to activate/deactivate True Manual for specific modes or switch it on/off generally.

(Available for 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

Change your shift speeds for various modes easily! xHP Flashtool offers to completely remap your shift programs. You can adjust the shift-speed for each shift, or reassign a shift program entirely, e.g. map super-fast shifts to Comfort-mode or combine medium-speed shifts with the Sport+ setting in your vehicle.

(Available for 6-Speed and 8-Speed)

8-Speed transmissions can cut off operation on one or more cylinders during shifting. This leads to a very distinctive exhaust note during shifts. (braaap) With this setting, you can configure the RPM and torque thresholds for each shift mode, at which the transmission requests for cylinders to be cut off during shifts.

(Available for 8-Speed)

This setting allows you to switch off certain drive modes. There are 7 possible settings: D/S/M (stock), only D/M, only D/S, only S/M, only D, only S, or only M. Depending on the configuration, certain modes are omitted and the reaction to driver inputs on the Gear Lever and Paddles changes accordingly.

Examples:
Setting "D/M": This will directly shift to M when the gear lever is moved to the left. (instead of going to S-Mode). Also a long pull on the + Paddle will switch the trans between D and M.
"Only M":  This will delete D and S modes, so the trans will always be in M-Mode as soon as you leave P (Parking Position).
"Only D": The trans will always be in D mode. Manual operation is no longer possible.

(Available for 8-Speed)

With this setting, you can disable the Kickdown switch. The extra downshift initiated through Kickdown will be suppressed.

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

Easily adjust the aggressiveness of your downshift blips! You can change the intensity of your blips by +-50%. Higher values result in more audible and faster blips but can be uncomfortable. Lower values will result in slower but smoother rev-matching.

(Available for 6-Speed/Gen2 and 8-Speed)

This setting lets you lockout the 6th gear in S mode.

(Available for 6-Speed)

Valet/Kids Mode limits your car's performance, limiting max. revs to 2500 - 3000. RPM to 2500 - 3000 (depending on vehicle), locks the transmission in its slowest operating mode and disables launch control/brake booster. Safely lend your high performance vehicle to your children or ensure the garage mechanic does not show off your car to his mates. Valet Mode can be applied to any map and works safely in all driving environments.

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed F-Series)

With this option, you can adjust the RPM target when going full throttle. You can set different rpm values for D-Mode, S-Mode and M-Mode for each gear.

(Available for 6-Speed, 7-Speed DCT and 8-Speed)

This panel allows you to set the electronic torque limiter for each gear. Limiting torque in the lower gears, especially on high performance RWD cars, can improve traction and make them easier to drive. Different gears have different torque capacities (e.g. 6th gear in an 8-speed and 4th gear in a 6-speed), so limiting torque per gear can help prevent clutch slippage on tuned cars.

(Available for 6-Speed and 8-Speed)

You can toggle the Gear-Display in D-Mode.

(Available for 6-Speed and 8-Speed)

xHP lets you adjust the transmission to changed rear-axles. With adjusting the transmission to a new rear-axle ratio, fault codes and/or limp-mode will be triggered.

(Available for 7-Speed DCT)
