'''Stefans BMW E34 535 turbo''' http://savarturbo.se/stuff/images/stefans_bmw/uppstart_2006-12-19.jpg '''Engine specification''' * Stock BMW M30B35 * Siemens 788 cc/min injectors (low impedance, 2 Ohm) * Stock coil (0.5 Ohm primary) and distributor ignition * Flyback uses TS diode and 6.8 Ohm/50W resistor pack (no peak-and-hold) * Manifold adapter with a Holset HX50 (66 in / 78 out, 25 cm^2 housing) ---- Short movie from the startup: (save as) \ [http://media.savarturbo.se/stefan/uppstart_2006-12-19.mov .MOV (24 MB)] Launch and WOT run: (save as) \ [http://media.savarturbo.se/stefan/stefans_e34_turbo_2007.avi XviD/MPEG-4 (1.5 MB)] '''Update 2007-01-11''' We had false triggering as soon as the wideband controller was activated, but it was solved through adding a 10K pullup at R30. By mistake I at first used a 1 MegaOhm pullup, that did not work.. :-) The car is now driven daily, some problems may have to be sorted out. One thing needs to be addressed: The stock ignition coil has a 0.5 Ohm primary and needs 2.5 ms dwell (it seems) but this may prove too much for the IGBT. ** Experienced same problem in similar setup. Our solution was to adapt waste spark coil. http://www.vems.hu/wiki/index.php?page=MembersPage%2FBengtR%2FIgnition Solutions to the coil problem is either * Add CDI box (not necessary at even double the power level) * Replace coil We're going to replace the coil to start with. ---- We removed everything related to the diagnostic connector and kept just some of the wires that went to the chassis connector (ignition, rpm, alternator, starter, oil pressure switch, cluster coolant temp, ..). We then basically rewired most of the cable related to the Motronic harness - the injectors to get sequential firing and all the sensors because we made all new grounds and didn't want the signal wires to be cut short when connecting the Econoseal connectors of the VEMS Genboard. We did re-use all of the trigger cable and connectors! We didn't re-use the stock injector miniterm connectors, we got new ones from the VEMS webshop which are easier to disengage. All in all I think me and Stefan spent about 4-5 evenings on the wiring, this could've been cut a lot shorter if we had done it before and knew how the stock harness was interconnected.. http://savarturbo.se/stuff/images/stefans_bmw/harness_built.jpg We re-used the "cable box" that encases the injector connectors. Very neat after we zip tied everything and closed it up. http://savarturbo.se/stuff/images/stefans_bmw/harness_new_cable.jpg Glory shot of the car. http://savarturbo.se/stuff/images/stefans_bmw/e34_535.jpg
