Nick G is the guy to talk too for DASC software. I only have good NA and turbo software for the M44

Yes you will be required to ship the DME to Nick


All the best

NickG's stage2 software is fantastic... With the injectors, its very smooth, and also clears up a bit of clutter in the engine bay.

I later upgraded to stage3, and at the moment have to work some things out... hope it turns out to be better than stage2.

Clutter:
-stock fuel injector air hose assembly
-DASC RRFPR and fuel hoses (fuel lines now go straight to the fuel rail)

Also:
-air injection pump was relocated to passenger side, so less air hose running across the engine bay (this is on a Z3, not sure how it's run on 318 though)

hmm interesting, ill keep that in mind, the best part about a lil 1.9 liter 4cyl is that there is PLENTY of room for just about anything u need to do under the hood...tho the day i remove and tune my engine to what i want i will definitely redo all the wiring for the sensors and everything, when the DASC was installed in my car everything was totally F-ed up...at least the car runs great and everything works!
