So she grew to to be a 325i

[nicwes]

The swap is done and everything sorted except the software. I need to remap the software and chip it.. Can anyone help me with this? Please? The car has a bit more power than it used to, but the 325i performance is under the covers. I need to get it out. :rollsmile:

The car's fuel/air mixture is completely wrong

 

[Raybimmer]

What ecu do you have ?

I have a 325i engine which I am buying from Gizmo :rollsmile: :thumbs:

Using my car's ECU, getting it chipped, meaning slightly more power than standard 325i ECU. I think that is about it? My brain is tired :blab:

hope you have loads of fun with the "new" car!

Congrats man.
Lets hope that she is here to stay now after that horrific ordeal

 

[Sankekur]

Congrats, glad your car is now sorted.

How about chip logic?

 

[Gizmo]

Budler will swap the EPROM chip with a 325i one, flashed with a nice map on it too. Chiplogic will do the same thing. The 6cyl M54 ecu is the Siemens MS43, just the EPROM chip changes between the different capacity motors.

I must ask, how is the motor as I had never started it?
