VEMS users?

[Ginsterman98]

Hey, new this forum and coming from the VW world. I have a VR6 running on Lugtronic PnP VEMS, similar to what whodwho does with MS. I plan on running VEMS in my E30 which currently has some crap ass Go Tech crap in it. I have heard there might be issues with the BMW injector wiring. Are you guys rewiring all six injectors or using the stock BMW stuff? Also, my car currently has no ISV and I am curious to find out what M20 guys do for idle control. TIA, Dan.

Bump, no VEMS users here?

e30tech has a few guys running VEMS

Yeah, I would post there but they won't activate my account for some reason...

Site admin is always busy. Have thoughts of running VEMS many times because a local builds them. Welcome to the BMW world I too come from VWs and VR6s. Please post any progress.

I will, I made a build thread but the basic setup will be.
VEMS wired into stock harness
LS coils
440's
OBD1 two wire VR6 ISV

I run my turbo m20 with VEMS.
I did rewire my injector harness. There are writeups on e30tech but it was so long ago i hardly remember. Something about cylinder pairing

Sweet man, you should post your setup here so we can get some info out for everyone.

Check your build thread por favor.
Also E30 Tech has loads of VEMs runners and check their FI section in general for turbo ish. This site mainly has 24V swap peeps.

Yeah that site has good info, but they are gay and want you to pay. I don't understand why more people are not using VEMS. Such a great setup.

I have VEMS for M42 so I can't answer the M20 question specifically.

Open up the injector wiring harness and see which injectors are paired. Change as needed. Change will be the same with MS or VEMS.

Either that or make a new injector harness for full sequential fuel.


There are plenty of users here too: http://195.159.109.134/vemsuk/forum/index.php

Thanks, I am just going to rewire the entire motor. Its kind of mickey moused right now.

[wazzu70]

Watch out, I started rewiring the engine harness....and ended up rewiring the whole car!





It now looks much better :). Just know when to stop!

[Ginsterman98]

Haha, yeah it might get that way.
