I could do a megasquirt kit and wire it up, but im not really familiar with the tuning. If i could get it to a rough setting, i could tune it to where i wanted. Does anyone have a similar setup that they could send me their megatune info. Or is there an auto tune setting? Any info on tuning would be awesome.
    Huge mistake. Been there seen people doing that years ago. Convert it to obd1 and have the STOCK ECU tuned. It can do anything and almost anything any standalone can do. Contact TRM (a.k.a) The Racers Market in Swuanee for info on this. They have cars around the country shipped to them to have this done and messed up standaloned cars in which they convert back to stock..believe it or not. Also, they have 500-600+ RWHP cars on the stock ECU, including a 140mph+ 1/4 mile car that was on Pinks. You can run multiple maps and do everything you'd dream of and not have the headaches of a standalone.
    Also, i'd highly recommend not gettin such a low quality kit. If you research you'll find that kit's like Ebay, Apexi etc crack manifolds and heat soak like no other. They are pieced together, not tested. The Technique Tuning and the TRM kits are the BEST on the market and both are 5500-6900k. Also, i've driven and seen first hand a street mod race car with a TRM Stg 2 kit run all day at the track. I know that a bone stock 325is with 150k and a TRM stage 2 kit made 444whp at 9:5:1 compression on the stock ECU fully tuned on 93!!!. Take a look and PM me if you need more info i've owned several BMW's.

    I would not at all. I don't even know if anyone there is even somewhat knowledgeable about BMW's nor have I ever heard on any of the largest BMW forums of a single car/race car going there....Ever.
    The Racers Market has F.I cars and race cars shipped around the country to them just for there BMW tuning and they are in ATLANTA!! Some of there club racing cars are "unfair" because they make so much more power then "chipped/flashed" cars so everyone is sending there cars to them. They have made a huge footprint on the BMW community doing one-of-a-kind modified stock ECU full tunes. They also make numbers that make an AA "tune" or "comforti tune" look like a pure joke.
