Cold Start Removal Options?

Cold Start Removal Options?
Hello peeps,

My car is a 2015 328i xDrive and my current modifications include:

VRSF Downpipe
VRSF Chargepipe
JB4.

With this 4 cylinder engine and the downpipe the car sounds like a tractor on a cold start and I really don't like it. I've read that Bootmod3 or whatever its called has a built in application to delete cold start but since I already have the JB4 that doesn't make sense for me... Unless is there a way that you can buy only the cold start delete option without getting the entire bootmod3 tune package? Any other possible solutions would be great to hear about as well.


Thanks

Bootmod3 can delete the cold start, but you have to buy the full license to have access to that feature. If I were you, I'd sell the JB4, get BM3 and enjoy the cold start delete in addition to everything else BM3 offers.

Cold start the way it sounds is there for a reason, no ?
By removing it, won't it cause damage in a long term?
