What was the end result ?
yes MS4x flasher was a lot better to use. a lot quicker for flashing, no need for boot made if doing a full write. The only problem i had with it was its battery check before flashing would stop you from writing unless you connected a battery charger to the vehicle, which is always a good idea but not practical if you a trying to reflash a change while you are out on the road.

The peak power went from 140hp @5900 to 158hp @ 6300
I played with the vanos on the inlet cam but only at full throttle, I had to loose 2-3 hp from the top end in order to be able to hold the torque for longer.
I also changed the values in "Throttle Angle Reaction on Driver Wish" table below 25% to help make the car feel more lively when driving normally.
Just for interest this was all done on the factory exhaust.
I have now installed the m52b28 exhaust manifolds and removed the cats at the gearbox plus replaced the rear muffer. The car still feels the same to drive just a little noisier. I haven't been back on the dyno with these changes , but I will as I would like to push the timing some more on 98 fuel. All the logging that i have done to date shows no timing correction has be needed so would like to see how much more timing it can handle.

After alot of trial and error I have finally got it sorted. I managed to get galletto working for the 64k file quite easily. But writing the full 512k caused me abit of problem. Alot of the flashing tools out there are seen by windows 10 as a threat.
In the end I downloaded ms4x flasher on my phone , then transferred the file to a laptop and then changed the settings in "Windows Security > Virus & threat protection." To allow the exe file to be opened. If you dont allow the file in "windows threat protection" windows deletes it everytime you open it.
Anyway I have now had a good play with both a ms42 and ms43 dme. I got a couple dme's from wreaked cars as I was a bit worried about bricking mine.
Used my sons 320i as Guinea pig, got access to a friends dyno over the lockdown and began the learning processes.
I was pretty happy with the end result.

loaded a tuned file to my 330i -works bloody well - car drives great with nice enhancements! - launch control etc!
MS43 wiki site I presume?
What software and cable did you use?

Hi Everyone
I'm looking into tuning the ms43 in the E46's
So far I have looked into Tunerpro and Romraider
Has anyone one on here have any views on which they prefer or is there something else I should be looking at?
Thanks

how is this going?

Yes it's the oil tank for the engine. The tank can hold 8l but only holds around 4-4.5 l while running as the extra oil is circulating around the engine, filter,pump and oil lines.
The only pic I took while I was making the tank

Can you give us a 0-100 time?
I have overfilled the oil tank so if you cane it, oil comes out the breather. Need to sort that.

To get dash to work was turning into a bit of a problem, all the sensors like water temp, oil light, alternator light are wired to the factory e46 DME plus theres the tacho. . To get around the problem I decided to still run the 4 cylinder DME, I removed anything that wasn't going to be used , leaving only the crank trigger, water sensor, oil pressure, alternator light and power supply. I made an extra bracket to mount the crank trigger at the front of the motor and pick up off the M60 crank pulley.
I then started to wire in the M60 DMe and trans , ecu. It still have to mount the computers and wire in the P/S button, reverse lights, Park/ neutral starter lock out. And then move on to suspension and brakes
But in the mean time it runs and can be driven.

do you still need the pin numbers, wire colour and were two on that DME?
I have sorted the dme. But having problems with the starter park/neutral circuit

What brakes are you using?

Still the standard ones at the moment, Brakes, springs and sway bar are on the list

20 hours ago, allan said:Had a look and the trans it covers a wide range of items can you narrow down what you want i.e shift indicator,steptronic, oil temp etc
The Ecu, DME could be MS42, 43, 45, 46, BMS 46 or MSS54 believe this is for the m motors
Yes the shift indicator/ steptronic, ewb (just for the starter and dme), and DME pin out would be good thanks

For fuel I add 5% to all the tables to help the St trims , Full load enrichment I had to add around 50-60% to get from 13.5 to12.7 afr
For I added 3-4 deg in the high load areas. Full advance at full load is 27.5 deg before it was only reaching 23 deg
I also removed the torque limits for each gear.
