Super clean engine bay ! congrats

Thanks, that was the goal, besides painting the bay, I wanted the look as close to a stock install as possible. Unless you are a car/BMW person I wanted anyone looking under the hood to think that this was the engine that came with the car.

Ok sooooooo she runs! Got the first startup today.

Stock ECU no tuning at all right now just enough to turn of EWS etc, barely any gas in it (kinda old too), but at least I know it runs.

For not tuning it actually is fairly quiet and idols nicely once we got it to go.

If you still need help with the DME, you can send me your bin or you can use the tools here:MSS54/hp dme swap modifications

Also, for future reference, all XDFs for TunerPro have been released to modify your MSS54/HP as needed: https://github.com/saildot4k/MSS54-XDFs

EDIT: oops looks like I already offered for at least the cruise control! Either way, I changed the way I calculate the gear sensor math curves to follow BMWs design, and added coding to disable Post O2s (instead of just turn off the error reporting as most do, this turns off the actual coding sub-routine in the DME), disabled the Eductor pump (gas tank pump transfer between left/right) and Fuel tank leak diag (LDP/LDPH)

Congrats BTW!

Alright alright alright....[emoji106][emoji106]
How’s the adrenaline level?!
Say, did you forget to put some oil, lol

I want to drive it!!

Yea that would be bad, power steering needs to be bled due to the new rack so it’s making some noise.

I mostly meant the part of the harness with the relays and fuse holder. It's kind of a mess and doesn't really fit nicely anywhere.

Also, did you use a Z3M harness to reach the glovebox?

Here is the mount, its not done yet, it needs to be cleaned up, but we are trying to keep it all up high to cover it with the original cover.

Did you make this bracket by hand or machine? And if it was laser cut or something would you mind making another one for me? Looks like a great solution after looking for space under the car tonight!

I can't weld, unfortunately, so I am having a shop help me with things like that. They made it by hand. I can find out more details on that from them. I told them where I wanted to put it and they built the bracket.

Hey if you want some company give me a shout when you're ready to crank her up..

[Staszek]

Dude, yes! Have you turned him over yet!?

Not yet, ECU is not tuned to turn off EWS etc. The programmer is off but should be soon.

So you cut the back corner off the intake and plastic welded a panel over it? Similar to what Kassel offers?

Sorry for the small pic I didnt take this one.


It was riveted and then sealed as well, that thing shouldn't come off :)
