About this remap

BMW 3 Series 325d 194 bhp Stage 1 — what changes

The BMW 3 Series 325d 194 bhp (2005–2011) leaves the factory at 194 BHP and 400 Nm of torque. Manufacturers deliberately detune this engine to separate it from more expensive variants in the range — a Regal Tuning Stage 1 calibration safely recovers that headroom through the ECU alone: no hardware changes, no dyno risk, fully reversible.

Fuelling, boost pressure, ignition and torque limiters are optimised within the safe tolerances of the 325d 194 bhp powertrain (diesel). The result is 266 BHP and 519 Nm with factory smoothness, cold-start protection and emissions behaviour retained.
