Hello you wonderful people of the Z4 forums!

I have here a 2003 3L 6 Speed manual Z4 that has a lot of modifications done, I am happy to list them all ofcourse. Mainly I am looking for a Tuner who can flash the darn ECU (likely MS45 I reckon). I have headers, full exhaust (Eisenmann), O2 sensors (downstream) deleted. Has a cold air intake port (but filter that sits inside the box). Engine has some 60K miles. I need someone who is reliable, responsive, I have ISTA / INPA and cables to access the ECU and such.

I had contacted a few, getting in touch for a remote tune seems to be rather difficult. So any recommendations are welcome.

Should I had posted in the wrong forum, please feel free to move it to the right one.

Thanks alot!
 
Talk to forum member [ref]ivanchen1211[/ref] who I believe has remote flashing capability and seems to know what heโ€™s talking about.
 
So I reached out to him and he says he does the N52 and such not the M54 which is what I have. :(
Hey! I made an account specifically to tell you this, but I have a 2001 330i (3.0 liter M54) and I flashed the ECU myself using this wiki: https://www.ms4x.net/index.php?title=Main_Page

It's a little confusing to navigate, but if you have the Siemens MS4X ECU, you can find maps for your car and flash it yourself using free tuner software (I think I used the free version of TunerRT) and their open source MS4X flasher, along with an OBDII data cable that you can buy on Amazon for a few bucks. Give it a look see and if you're up for the challenge, I'd recommend tinkering with it yourself. Makes you feel like fast and furious ๐Ÿ˜Ž Let me know if you have anymore specific questions!
