Yep big news for all z4 owners.Mister T wrote: ↑Tue Jun 05, 2018 3:41 pm Interesting news regarding the SCS Delta on a Z4M, that would actually sway me towards a CSL airbox as I wouldn't have to run a crappy alpha-n map...
Also great for a supercharger conversion as could get the car live mapped in the UK without having to rely on a generic tune.

Wow that is a completely new world if that works. I don't know for sure but the Z4M ecu has different than the M3. Right? If that is right how this think can work with our ECU's?

Yes it has a different ECU as like the 330 - z4 different pin outs on the ECU and probably different internals. But SCS sell the kit with a connecting loom and a base map. It is just as simple as plug in and go. I have had many long chats with Matthew Payne he is a great guy and know his stuff.
It doesn’t work with your ECU it’s instead of. And they have spent a long time developing their product so it works with all the other car systems over the can bus network. Call them up. Mention me Mat (with the blue z4) there was a z4mc waiting to be picked up (when i dropped my car off Sunday) that’s already had one fitted.

Hey Man!!!
How are you?
Lets go for a spin tonight with my VT2-525.
I am sure it will clear out your mind as you are going to immediately place the order.
If I were you, I would buy the kit new, as will include the ecu tune and all the proper support from ESS.
Attached below 100-200Km/hr results with 10Hz GPS. The test was done with 2% down hill

You can't add the MAP sensor compensation to the Z4M DME like you can with the E46 M3 (to CSL spec), so any tune will always be slightly compromised.FD3S wrote: ↑Tue Jun 05, 2018 11:14 pmOut of curiosity why you mention the Alpha N as crap?Mister T wrote: ↑Tue Jun 05, 2018 3:41 pm Interesting news regarding the SCS Delta on a Z4M, that would actually sway me towards a CSL airbox as I wouldn't have to run a crappy alpha-n map...

Thank you for the answer. If I decide to go this way I will definitely give them a call.Machine monkey wrote: ↑Wed Jun 06, 2018 7:23 am

You are bad influence my friend. Our last ride is going to cost me 7000 euro at least It is the whole setup and how smooth it runs and how OEM-look is this kit.NikitasZ4mcoupe wrote: ↑Wed Jun 06, 2018 8:08 am Hey Man!!!

I just got home after work, but hopefully if you can too I would be glad to go for a ride during the weekend.
The 100-200 is good, but now tell me what is your 0-100? I believe this will be jaw dropping

if those figures are accurate its actually mind bending...... i suppose given the weight of the car its very plausible but according to the list of times for the 100-200.... your beating some serious supercars.NikitasZ4mcoupe wrote: ↑Wed Jun 06, 2018 8:08 am Hey Man!!!

I know that it seems too good to be true, but car performes really well.
As you are aware it has been dynod at 476whp and weights 1440kg.
This is a very good combination with the 3.91diff.
I was very skeptical at the begining with the results, thats why I bought a 10Hz GPS to be used with Harris Lap time software.
It should have a 0.1sec accuracy........ I can share with you guys the vbo file if somebody whats to verify this!!!

Another blown z4m running super well, for perspective those in gear times are matching mclaren , 488 performance,NikitasZ4mcoupe wrote: ↑Thu Jun 07, 2018 7:01 amHey Beedub!!! How are you mate?

What android app did you use for that? I have a 10hz bluetooth gps but not a good android app.
In the good old nokia/symbian days there was an app called racechrono that had nice performance logging features but now I cant find a decent one that gets all the data from the bluetooth gps.
