BMW 3 Series 328D 180hp Remap

The BMW 3 serie 328D 180hp is a 2.0L turbocharged diesel engine producing 180 BHP and 380 Nm from the factory. With a typical Stage 1 remap, output increases to approximately 270 BHP and 500 Nm — a gain of around 90 BHP (50%) and 120 Nm (32%).

This engine scores highly for remap suitability, with gains weighted towards peak power — the improvement is most noticeable at higher RPM. The tuning headroom is classified as high, based on the percentage gain available from the factory output.

From a technical perspective, the ECU is typically a Bosch EDC17 (likely), and the transmission is many variants use zf 8-speed automatic (where fitted); manuals also exist. at this torque level, transmission and driveline servicing history becomes especially important..

Considerations: High tuned torque: check transmission torque capacity and service history.. Large torque increase: drivetrain condition (clutch/gearbox) becomes more important at this level.

Fuel economy note: economy gains unlikely at full power; depends on driving style.

All figures shown are typical estimates based on aggregated Stage 1 data for this engine variant. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, mileage, and the chosen tuning method. We recommend discussing your specific vehicle with a qualified remap professional.
