Omi Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Anyone know any genius workshops that can remap a Motronic 1.7 for a BMW E30? I'm going up a bit in CC and CR and suspect I'll need new fuelling maps... Don't really wanna go standalone or piggyback if I can get away with a fresh map on my existing chip. Cheers!

Tobes49 Posted February 27, 2007 Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 Whats been done to the engine? Is it now force induction (seem to remember someone was going to turbo a BMW engine) I would go for megasquirt. It you dont mind wiring and playing it would be cheaper than a remap.

Omi Posted February 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2007 The plan was FI, but for now the spare engine is just getting a few mm overbore to take the cubes up, and skimmed down to raise the compression. - Won't be that far off the original. Might be able to get away with increasing fuel pressure or changing the injectors, as the basic characteristics will remain the same. Once this engine's done and in, I'll have a spare on the bench to spend some serious dollar on, with plans for a GT28RS and standalone management.

Tobes49 Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 How far you gone on the over bore? 1.5 mm per piston? How much off the cylinder head? You should be fine with a increase in fuel pressure, With the extra air being drawn in the airflow meter (or MAP) should add extra petrol anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omi Posted March 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Will do... Think we can come to some arrangement for TV advertising on the car rather than an enourmous bill? Engine is being rebuilt/fitted in Kidderminster, so you're at least in the right end of the country. - Basically we're rebuilding the stock lump with custom pistons to increase capacity by about 100cc, and raising the compression ration from 10:1 to about 11:1.
