Performance software is a  must-have  upgrade on your BMW and you won't find an easier and better software solution than the Shark Injector. Developed by BMW tuning expert Jim Conforti, this device plugs into the car's diagnostic port and flashes new performance files into your car's engine computer (ECU). There's no removal of the ECU and shipping, no cables, no laptop required - only a battery charger! Installation takes just a few minutes and your engine will perform like never before!

The M54 performance software was developed on the dyno to create maximum power and torque using premium 91+ octane fuel while maintaining BMW reliability and smoothness. The software makes changes to the ECU's maps and algorithms for fuel injection, ignition timing, VANOS and camshaft movement, and transitional fueling. A lot of tuning has been done at the low RPM ranges to improve response. We modify the maps for part throttle and full throttle so you get better response and more torque at all RPM. We also raise the rev limit to 7,000 and remove the top speed limiter. By fine tuning these maps we've been able to improve the M54/M56 engine beyond what BMW did by making more power and torque and a smoother-running engine.

The Shark Injector plugs into the diagnostic port inside the E46 cabin. With the battery charger supplying power, press the Upgrade button and within minutes the ECU is reflashed with the new performance tune. No other software product on the market comes close to how easy it is to install. You can use the Restore button to re-install the stock BMW software at any time. Detailed instructions are included. Other tuners require you to remove the ECU and ship it to them or use a laptop to read and write a new file. The Shark Injector is ready to install right out of the box! A planned future upgrade will allow you to use the USB port to load different performance files.

(click to expand)

Does your 325 have the M56 "SULEV" Engine? Many of the 325's produced for the US -- particularly in California, Massachusetts, and a few other states -- came with a different engine, the M56 which meets "SULEV" (Super Ultra Low Emission Vehicle) emissions classification. A visual inspection of your engine (as shown below) is the best way to determine if your 325 has the M56 SULEV engine.

greekpsycho, 325i: "I sharked my 325 a few months ago and I noticed a huge difference. This REALLY brought out the best of my car."
TJ710, 325i: "just did this to my own stock 325i about 3 weeks ago and I definitely felt a difference and it put a smile on my face."
Dahmwern, 325Ci: "I'm definitely noticing a sweetly smooth power delivery, as well as a noticeable power increase in the low end as you being to accelerate (especially up moderate inclines). Note: This is NOT placebo effect. I drove the same route before and after to compare, and while its not perfectly scientific, it was quite obvious that there were some changes that took place - changes for the better. Like many mods, the car should have come this way!"

Rob43, 330i: "besides the 7000rpm, removal of the top speed limiter, and very good(improved) throttle response, I got 6.5WHP on the dyno with my Shark injector. That’s worth $300 bucks in my book."
xixixi, 330xi: "I got the shark for my 330xi, I love it. Shark > all. Why? It gives gains that other "custom tunes," can't. What I liked the most about my shark is shift points. If you can shift decent, you can stay in the 5.5k+ range."
Douglas, 330Ci: "Just last week I had your Shark Injector installed in my 2001 330Ci. What a difference it makes! I already loved the car and it’s a great car to drive, but this takes it to a new level."
Steve 330i: "I bought the software and CAI by Jim C. Installed both at the same time and have put around 500 miles on over the last month. The car is amazing to drive, and the software seemed to make the power band a bit flatter, less of a dip and a bit better at the lower RPMS."

nleksan, 330i ZHP: "Ditch the Brand XXXXX software and switch it up for the newly-released Conforti Shark Injector for your car. It will give you a higher redline, no top-speed, more power, and much better throttle response, even over the Brand XXXXX."
3579az, 330i ZHP: " The throttle response problem has been solved. I can now perform perfect rev-matches with ease, unlike before. I've been heel-and-toe downshifting all day with a major success rate of perfect shifts, which is a LOT more than could be said compared to stock. I can now pull cleanly through the rev range without feeling any hesitation or dead spots. I have confirmed that the dead spot that was painfully obvious before the flashing… is gone."
pyreguy, 330i ZHP: "I have been VERY pleased with mine. The dead spot being irradiated was the best thing EVER."
Scott, 330i ZHP: "Very increased acceleration - especially from around 3,000 to 6,000. The car feels like a bullet! It is the same smooth kind of power too - just more of it, delivered continuously to the top rpm. So 3rd feels more like 2nd gear now! Throttle transitions are much more refined. So when in low gears, on and off throttle changes are very seamless and smooth (no jerking) - and the change has made shifting gears easier - especially first to second. So now my car is much more fun to drive and shows engine performance that is better matched to the incredible handling ability it has. I'm very pleased with this upgrade and can't thank you enough!!!

DBALZE, 323Ci: "The shark injector is awesome! After I put it in, I could definitely feel the quicker throttle response and more power throughout the acceleration curve. Definitely worth the money to me!"
chrisct, 323Ci: "I installed an XXX short ram cold air intake and the shark injector on my 323Ci and I couldn't be happier. For me the biggest advantage was smoothing out the throttle response, but it definitely feels snappier."
hqbmw, 328Ci: "This Shark really woke up my 328Ci. Cost per performance increase is as good as it gets! Also getting 10 to 15% better fuel economy in "normal" driving."
huyner328, 328Ci: "First change I would like to mention is the increased throttle response, as soon as I shifted and floored it, the car would pull. From 3400rpms to about 5000rpms I think was the sweet spot that gave me a nice little grin on my face. Next I tested the Redline of my car, yup another grin on my face. I definitely noticed that the car moved a little bit quicker with not as much gas consumption on the MPG Gauge. Overall, awesome mod."

Gains of 23 hp @ 6100 rpm and 19 lb/ft torque @ 5000 rpm!!!
We used several E39 M5s on our dyno to establish what the average/typical power numbers are. The dyno charts on the right are from the same car - a 2003 E39 M5 that was already equipped with intakes, mufflers, and running 93 octane. For our Shark Injector dynos we made baseline runs with the stock software and then runs in 3rd gear and 4th gear. The only changes to the car was the Shark Injector software. Why did we post dyno runs in different gears? The 3rd gear run shows the torque gain with the new torque limiters in the software. The 4th gear run is posted to be consistent with the industry-standard of dyno-ing cars in 4th gear. Note: comparing dyno results and wheel horsepower numbers from one shop to another is not advised. What really matters is the gain from stock to modified from the same car on the same dyno.

The Shark Injector plugs into the diagnostic port inside the E39 cabin. With the battery charger supplying power, press the Upgrade button and within minutes the ECU is reflashed with the new performance tune.

RUFM5: "The 93 RACE edition Shark has been very solid in my experience. The air/fuel ratios and power are very smooth and optimal. I also have a wideband gauge and OBD computer to monitor car vitals."
britm3: "Overall, the car feels much sharper in sport and non-sport, the 3rd gear pull really being the highlight for me."
M5CCIE: "Got my 91 octane version installed today. It is worth it's price and much more in my opinion. The car feels much more "eager" and responsive."
Carbon01: "I did the 91Octane TMS/Conforti Shark update last week. I was going to dyno before and after, but didn't have the patience once it arrived. I can say that there is a noticeable difference in 1st thru 3rd. It seems a little more responsive in the higher gears, but not drastic. Transtion from light throttle to full throttle is greatly improved, general drivability is a little better all around and noticeably nicer in Sport."
gt40mki: "I'm glad I bought it-worth every penny-and I'd re-buy again in a heartbeat."
Stika: "Installed the Shark on Friday. I gotta say, the Beast is DEFINITELY quicker. Much stronger on the low end. The drivabilty is much better across the board, at any speed, in any gear. I got the street version with Sport button memory, very nice feature. Don't know what else to add to what has been said already. Worth the purchase to me, I'm very pleased."

You may be able to upgrade the Shark Injector file to another version to better meet your tuning needs. Depending on the model we may have better tunes for things such as intakes, larger air sensors, camshafts, headers, and others. For a small fee the current Shark Injector tune can be removed and a new file added instead (the original Shark file you were using would no longer be available). To do this, we need the car restored to stock settings with the current Shark Injector and then returned to us (updating via USB is not yet available). Sharks that were not Restored to stock cannot be upgraded and the unit will be returned to you (at your expense). We also perform other work on the Shark Injector while it is here, including diagnostic tests and re-packaging with the most current instructions. The Shark that you get back is virtually new and ready to be reinstalled!

To get started, review the catalog of current Shark Injector files for one that better matches your tuning spec.
1. Enter the new tuning file in the form below. Include any other relevant information.
2. Click the Update Price or Add To Cart button.
3. Complete the online transaction with your address and payment information.
4. A Turner Motorsport sales rep will contact you after your order has been submitted. Do not send in your Shark Injector until someone has contacted you with a reference number and return shipping address.

Turn-around time for upgrades is typically the same day we receive it. UPS Ground is the normal return shipping method unless you specify faster shipping on your order.

Stage 3+ Performance Software for E36 M3 (M50 Manifold + Cam Kit)

Conforti Shark Injector performance software tuned for the an awesome OBD2 package: M50 manifold, Schrick camshafts, "24lb" injectors, Porsche 3.5" HFM, and intake. This software makes full use of the benefits of the M50 manifold when used with cams and the HFM/intake. Without the software, you're not getting the full effect of these upgrades in the upper rev range. The stock software -- or a regular Shark Injector -- is tuned for low-end torque using the stock manifold and cams. It's like a marathon runner in a 40-yard dash -- he'll put in a good effort but won't be the quickest! Special attention was paid to the low-end and mid-range too so that torque was not lost with the M50 manifold.

With this software you will notice more top end power, a broader torque band, and a smoother running engine. The rev limit is raised to 7000 RPM with the top speed limiter removed. Works with 91 or higher octane fuel.

Required:
"24lb" injectors (actually around 26lb injectors when used at the S52's 3.5 bar of fuel pressure). You must confirm the injector flow-rate at 3.5 bar before using this software. If the injectors were not purchased from us, we may as for the Bosch part number on your injectors.
Porsche 809 3.5" HFM (0 280 217 809) (TMS/Porsche HFM works best) with intake. Note: this will not work with a Euro HFM, 540 HFM, or Dinan HFM. Our software is programmed and written specifically for the Porsche 809 HFM! If you did not purchase the HFM Kit from us, we may ask you for the Bosch part number from your HFM.

Performance software is a  must-have  upgrade on your BMW and you won't find an easier and better software solution than the Shark Injector. Developed by BMW tuning expert Jim Conforti, this device plugs into the car's diagnostic port and flashes new performance files into your car's engine computer (ECU). This particular file includes Stage 1 engine tuning (fuel, ignition, timing upgrades) with EWS-delete programming. There's no removal of the ECU and shipping, no cables, no laptop required - only a battery charger! Installation takes just a few minutes and your engine will perform like never before!

The M52/S52 performance software was developed on the dyno to create maximum power and torque using premium 91+ octane fuel while maintaining BMW reliability and smoothness. The software makes changes to the ECU's maps and algorithms for fuel injection, ignition timing, VANOS and camshaft movement, and transitional fueling. We modify the maps for part throttle and full throttle so you get better response and more torque at all RPM. We also raise the rev limit to 7,000 and remove the top speed limiter. By fine tuning these maps we've been able to improve the S52 engine beyond what BMW did by making more power and torque and a smoother-running engine.

The programming for EWS delete will allow you to use a spare ECU to run the engine. If your original ECU fails, and you find yourself buying a used ECU, you won't have to tow the car to the dealer to have the ECU synced to the car's EWS system. This is also the perfect software solution if you installed an S52 engine in your E36 323/328 - just plug in the M3 ECU and flash with this Shark Injector. This Stage 1 file will bypass the EWS code and give you all of the benefits of our Stage 1 tune.

The Shark Injector plugs into the diagnostic port under the hood of the E36. With the battery charger supplying power, press the Upgrade button and within minutes the ECU is reflashed with the new performance tune. No other software product on the market comes close to how easy it is to install. You can use the Restore button to re-install the stock BMW software at any time. Detailed instructions are included. Other tuners require you to remove the ECU and ship it to them or use a laptop to read and write a new file. The Shark Injector is ready to install right out of the box! A planned future upgrade will allow you to use the USB port to load different performance files.
