BMW m30 3.5 turbo help needed

Post by Knuckle dragger »

Hi people I have built a BMW e34 m535 turbo
And I'm trying to y
Use Megasquirt and spark to run if remade the crank pully to run the correct trigger wheel but I'm now ready to upload a base map to tune from but I'm struggling to find a base map
When I used Megasquirt on my chevette I found a webpage with a huge archive listing of base maps but I can't find said webpage

Any help would be much appreciated

You don't need a "base map".

Get all your settings correct, and the fuel/ignition tables that ship with the firmware will be fine to get you up and running.
Do not load someone elses tune and expect it to work for you!

I also started from scratch and car has been on circuit in the meanwhile. Take the time and you can map it all
