Ob2 conversion

[Golden_e28]

Every post I have been seeing on Google about obd1 to obd2 conversion says something along the lines of "just Google it there's tons of forums" to "oh so and so already posted that" but I can't seem to find anything about the conversion. I have a 1987 e28 and a 1997 e39 parts car. I've already deleted ews. I have the software to tune out whatever I need to. Any leads would be appreciated

unless you are engine swapping there is nothing you can use.

What is your objective? Are you wanting to put the motor from the e39 in the e28?

i'm thinking that's what he's doing and i'm just misinterpreting it.

Yes I'm 24 valve swapping

What engine? Is the engine in the e28 or still in the e39?

Do you have a particular question or are you just looking for a swap guide on 24v in an e28?

Okay let me clarify a bit. The engine in the e39 is going into the e28. I understand what I need for the swap. A lot of forums want you to switch the ecu from obd 2 to obd 1 for simplicity. But I want to do a obd 2 conversion. But can't find a guide to do it

[iansane]

You're not really converting to obd2 if the engine already is obd2. I guess I'm a little confused still. Just don't convert to obd1? Nothing in the car is converted other than adding an obd2 port and rigging up a SES light if you want one. Unless you want to run the full evap system and all that?

keeping it OBD2 MS41.1 is fine, it can be flashed for swap

[jbontke]

So follow the swap guides on M52 swap into the e30. I think you have that part covered. Is the ODB2 wiring into the C101 plug what you are asking about?
