Hey! almost a year has passed since my last post ..
I encountered problems with the original ECU, after running the engine for about 20min, it did not want to start !!
have tried everything, reprogramming etc etc etc no way. It appears that the theft protection is activated ... for some reason ..

I hate original parts !!!

so after several months of testing, asked several BMW technician ... new original ECU or send it to Germany for reprogramming.. no way..
So I decided to change the ECU .. for something modern and something that I can control myself! and redo all the wires again ..

I decided to go for a MaXXEcu Race from www.maxxecu.com
very happy with it! and super suport!


But the one waiting for something good ...

Last week i got the mapping done! and the resoult?

314 Whp and 326Nm on the wheels

Just seen this for the first time. Great thread I love that welding on the exhausts too.

Enjoy it

I trust you’ll not be using the 3.0 brakes... the S54’s pretty good at making you forget just how little effort it needs to go rather fast...
