BMW i8 ECU remapping
44 files available
About remapping
The BMW i8 accounts for 44 files in our catalogue, entirely the 1.5T three-cylinder petrol turbo that forms half of its plug-in hybrid powertrain. It is a striking sports car built around carbon fibre and hybrid technology.
Stage 1 makes up 37 files, with 6 Stage 2. The ECUs are MEVD17.2.3 and related MEVD references. On a hybrid, work is confined to the combustion engine ECU and we assess each case individually given the system's complexity.

Can a plug-in hybrid be remapped?
Work is confined to the combustion engine ECU. Hybrid systems add complexity, so we assess each case individually before committing.
How much does the 1.5T take?
It is a turbocharged three-cylinder with reasonable headroom, though it works in concert with the electric side of the powertrain.
Is the work reversible?
Yes. We always keep the original ECU file, which matters particularly on a vehicle of this value.
