There is also some logging software that allows you to capture what is going on when the engine is running, so you can re-map it.

As I said, I haven't finished the installation yet. I'll post some more when I get back to engineering rather than sorting out some domestic issues.
Hi Chris

This looks interesting, and terrifying in equal measure!

I love the idea of a DIY engine management computer system, with the ability to play with your own tunes and engine upgrades, but given my electronic knowledge (lack of!) it might be a step too far.

My ECU programmer rang today to say he is almost ready to run his BMW M54 engine with my MS43 ECU, and should be able to post a video on Youtube by the end of September - fingers crossed.
If all goes to plan I hope to collect a Plug n Play ECU plus loom after my holidays later in October.

Maybe, just maybe, an M54 powered Marlin is moving a step closer?

Keeping fingers crossed.......!
