Unlock Your N55 Engine’s Potential: The Power of the MHD Monitor License
Monitoring your BMW’s engine is crucial for peak performance and longevity, especially when you’re pushing the boundaries with tuning. For enthusiasts and performance drivers utilizing the N55 engine, the N55 Monitor License from MHD Flasher F+G Series offers an unparalleled window into your engine’s vital signs. This license transforms your mobile device into a sophisticated monitoring tool, ensuring your engine operates within safe parameters while maximizing its power.
Real-Time Engine Insights at Your Fingertips
The MHD Monitor License is a key component of the MHD Flasher F+G Series, a comprehensive flash tuning application designed for BMW vehicles. Unlike simpler piggyback modules, MHD allows for complete Digital Motor Electronics (DME) remapping, all while preserving essential OEM safety protocols. This approach delivers superior performance, enhanced safety, and exceptional drivability.
The Monitor License focuses specifically on providing you with real-time data and logging capabilities, crucial for understanding and optimizing your N55 engine’s performance. It’s like having a comprehensive set of gauges directly on your smartphone or tablet.

What Does the N55 Monitor License Offer?
The Monitor License unlocks a suite of features focused on keeping you informed about your N55 engine’s health and performance. Here’s a detailed look at what you gain:
Configurable Gauge Layout
Personalization is key, and the MHD Monitor License lets you customize your display with up to 8 fully adjustable gauges. This means you can prioritize the parameters most important to you, whether you’re focused on boost levels, temperatures, or fuel delivery. The intuitive interface allows for easy arrangement and resizing of gauges to suit your preferences.
Extensive Parameter Monitoring
With access to over 50 engine parameters, the Monitor License provides a comprehensive overview of your N55 engine’s operation. Key parameters include:
- Boost and Boost Target: Keep a close eye on your turbocharger’s performance and ensure it’s hitting target boost levels.
- Lambda (AFR): Monitor your air-fuel ratio to ensure optimal combustion and prevent lean or rich conditions.
- Intake Air Temperature (IAT): Track the temperature of the air entering your engine, crucial for performance, especially after modifications or during hot weather.
- Ignition Timing per Cylinder: Observe timing adjustments cylinder by cylinder, vital for detecting potential issues and optimizing for different fuel grades.
- Coolant and Oil Temperature: Monitor critical temperatures to prevent overheating and ensure proper engine lubrication.
- Oil Pressure: Keep track of oil pressure to safeguard against engine damage due to lubrication issues.
- Transmission Temperature: For automatic transmissions, monitoring temperature is essential for longevity, especially under performance driving conditions.
- High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP): Observe HPFP performance, particularly important on tuned engines demanding more fuel.
- Throttle Position: See your throttle input in real-time.
- Wastegate Duty Cycle (WGDC): Monitor wastegate activity, useful for diagnosing boost control issues.
- RPM and Speed: Standard but essential parameters for performance monitoring.
- EGT (Exhaust Gas Temperature): Monitor exhaust gas temperature to prevent overheating of exhaust components, especially with modifications.
Beyond these standard parameters, the Monitor License also provides access to advanced data points not typically exposed by BMW, depending on your DME software version (even without flashing MHD). These advanced parameters can include:
- Timing Corrections per Cylinder: Detailed insight into knock correction activity in each cylinder.
- Boost Setpoint: The DME’s target boost level.
- Active Torque Limiters: Identify factors limiting engine torque output.
