At that point, it really doesn't matter if you wait for some new map to come out, or if you just take one of the choices available today. Let's not confuse a 3rd party "CS" map with authentic BMW software.
Clone the M2CS ECU

They did it with the E46 M3 CSL, don't see why they couldn't do it for the M2

Current CS map from BM3 is for M4, and we're talking about a car with a longer wheel base and larger wheels

While I i actually trust an OTS map from a reputable tuner, I just feel like BMW Engineers are better equipped to tune the engine... They've tested it on many circuits, they've got all the gear, they don't want to make it a warranty issue.

I just feel like waiting for an authentic CS map would be a safe strategy that wouldn't even force me mentally to do the crank hub fix.
