Visit Preferences to set your user name Summary of change: '''BMW-s from French Polynesia in Tahiti''' collecting info before ordering 3 different ECU VEMS V3 for 3 different BMW engine turbo projects. Note: 3 projects interleaved is confusing, so '''page HAS BEEN split, see links below''' This page: BMW S38B38 (M5 E34 3.8L euro version) turbo engine with (6 cylinders) ---- '''Sibling BMW projects (same installer):''' * MembersPage/TahitiBmwSfourteen BMW S14B23 (M3 E30 2.3L euro version) turbo engine * MembersPage/TahitiBmwSfifty BMW S50B32 (M3 E36 3.2L euro version with '''VR,VR,VR double Vanos''' ) ** motronic88 is good option for S50B32 (econoseal VEMS ECU with the right options also controls it, but more work) Make sure the correct trigger options are chosen, and strongly advised: in order comment refer to these wiki pages (max 1 project per page).
