This is a injector controler and will not interfer with the rest of the functions of your stock ECU. It simply uses a switch to control the injectors. The people i talked about doing this used the PCIII from a GSXR1000. They took the wire that normaly goes to the TPS sensor and hooked it up to a MAP sensor. Say you want to run 15 PSI boost. You take the map sensor and make 0 = 0% and 15 psi = 100%. So that your fuel is completely controled by boost. You can control the two variables. I'll get the name of the guys who have done this on bimmerforums and post it for you, i think it's somwhere in my PM's. | | | 05-23-2005, 05:57 AM | #4 | I miss my Ti....... :( Join Date: Nov 2003 Location: Los Angeles, CA Posts: 828 | EMS & Piggy Back You need to decide how much you really would like to spend on this. Trully the best thing to do would be to go stand alone fuel management. I know that sias tuning has PNP kits for the Elctromotive TEC III, and evosport has PNP kits for the AEM EMS. They are both in the 3K range so if that is your budget do some research and those are the best for the money. Now if money is an object then you will end up going with some kind of piggy back unit. I use the ARC 2 by Split Second, the SAFC, Unichip, and a few others are available, and almost any unit can be used with a BMW if you rig it right. Piggy backs are bad because they alter the load signal (Map, MAF, Or AFM) that the ECU sees basically tricking it into retarding timing, and adding fuel. But load does more then that, it can advance timing as well so you need to be careful. Piggy Back units will work but if you are looking to get every once of HP out of your car, then stand alone is the way to go. -Chad | | | 05-23-2005, 07:38 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: MD/VA/DC Posts: 834 | i was going to buy a apexi SAFC but i dont want to interfer with the ECU but then i dont have that much to spend on a fuel management i did look at Elctromotive TEC III but right know looks like APEXI becouse it in my price but then there powercommande.com has a approved shop that can do the work on my car but i will be looking at the othere management | | | 05-23-2005, 08:51 PM | #6 | Senior Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: madison, WI Posts: 402 | Quote: Originally Posted by mischief i was going to buy a apexi SAFC but i dont want to interfer with the ECU but then i dont have that much to spend on a fuel management i did look at Elctromotive TEC III but right know looks like APEXI becouse it in my price but then there powercommande.com has a approved shop that can do the work on my car but i will be looking at the othere management | what injectors due you have? because stock wont handle all that boost even with a poo load of fuel pressure __________________ Mods: clear turn signals, Silverstar headlight bulbs, k&N custom CAI, removed A/C, lightened crank pulley, painted brakes, custom clutch stop, custom strut bar, x-brace, custom solid tranny mounts, Memphis sound system, Sachs sport clutch, B&M short shifter, lightened flywheel, redline MTL ....

Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Denver, CO Posts: 3,925 | Don't worry about spending money on Fuel Management. If you are planning on running 16psi, save your money to replace/build a new motor WHEN this one blows. I wouldn't run more than 10~12 psi. max on stock internals. Go with Haltech if you want engine management. __________________ '99 Dinan M3 | | | 05-24-2005, 03:38 AM | #9 | Senior Member Join Date: Jan 2004 Location: MD/VA/DC Posts: 834 | Quote: Originally Posted by pdxmotorhead If you can't afford fuel management ,,,, You probubly can't afford 16lbs of boost.

I paid nearly $1000 when it was new but $550 seems like a fair market price. Thanks...
