OVERVIEW
The MHD Flasher F+G Series is a complete flash tuning application for your BMW N13. Unlike a piggyback module it performs full DME remapping while retaining all OEM safety mechanisms, which allows for maximum performance, maximum safety and unrivaled drivability.
You can install MHD at home and start tuning immediately. Download the MHD Flasher F+G Series app, connect the MHD wireless adapter to your vehicle's OBD-II port and pair it to your Apple iOS or Android device, then start the app — the initial installation completes within about 5 minutes, and further map changes take only about 30 seconds. You can return the vehicle to the factory OEM flash at any point, and no initial backup is required.
The Super License bundles every MHD function in one package: the Flasher license, the Monitor (datalogging and gauge) license and the N13 map pack.

TECH RESOURCES
Additional Parts Required
- MHD Universal WIFI Adapter — required to flash. The license is software only; you must have a supported interface to connect the app to the car. Not included with the license-only variant of this listing.
- Alternative supported interface if you already own one: ENET cable plus a Lightning adapter (iOS only), or K-DCAN cable plus an OTG adapter (Android only). MHD recommends its own WiFi adapter and cannot support third-party hardware.
- An Apple iOS 10.2+ or Android 6+ mobile device running the free MHD Flasher app — supplied by the customer.
- A free MHD account. Give us the account e-mail and the vehicle VIN at checkout; the license is bound to both.
- A battery charger or maintainer. MHD states a charger is highly recommended for the initial full write (install and uninstall) and for long writes on slower adapters.
Installation
- Step-by-step guide to setup, flashing, datalogging and returning to stock: Speed Logic MHD Tuning Guide (it links to every section of MHD's own user guide)
- Installation is performed by the customer through the MHD app over the OBD-II port; no workshop fitment is required.
Notes
- All purchases are final. MHD licenses are non-refundable and non-transferable.
- Your activation code is e-mailed within 12 hours of payment.
- Each license is tied to one vehicle VIN and one MHD account e-mail. A different car or account needs a new license.
- MHD+ map switching isn't available on N13 off-the-shelf maps — custom tunes only.
- For off-road use only.
- Not sure? Send us your VIN and we'll confirm fitment and any unlock needs before you order.
VEHICLE APPLICATIONS
| Make | Model | Chassis | Engine | Years |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BMW | 114i (RWD only) | F20 / F21 | N13 1.6L Turbo I4 | 2012–2015 |
| BMW | 116i (RWD only) | F20 / F21 | N13 1.6L Turbo I4 | 2011–2015 |
| BMW | 118i (RWD only) | F20 / F21 | N13 1.6L Turbo I4 | 2011–2016 |
| BMW | 120i (RWD only) | F20 / F21 | N13 1.6L Turbo I4 | 2015–2017 |
| BMW | 316i (RWD only) | F30 / F31 | N13 1.6L Turbo I4 | 2012–2015 |
These models were not sold in the US. Years are production years for the markets where they were sold. MHD lists 2012–2018 for the 316i; the N13 316i was replaced by the B38-engined 316i around 2015, so later 316i cars are not N13 and are not covered by this license. Engine changeovers follow the production date, so confirm your engine by VIN with Speed Logic before ordering.
