The fuel regulator the engine is running is a standard BMW item which runs at 3 bar. The throttle position sensor was an issue initially with the ITB's but was solved quickly, so I doubt its that.

Hi All, Wondering if you can give me some idea's around what I should be looking at with a problem I have with my e30 325i. The engine has been stroked out to 2.8l using a M52 crank. It has a branch manifold, Dbilas ITB inlet manfold, Schrik 272/284 cam, E36 M3 3l injectors and a Miller MAF. My prob...

Don't worry, I just worked it out anyway...

Hi All,

Just received my miller MAF for my 88' 325i and they say that to release the pins in the ECU connector to push a slider??? Anyone got any idea what they are talking about as I can't work it out.

Hi, I have an '88 325i which has been stroked out to 2.8l using a M52 crank, 6 branch manifold, Shrick 284/272 cam, and a dbilas 6 throttle body manifold. I am looking at getting an adjustable fuel pressure reg so I can adjust the fuel to be right rather than just the standard 3 bar. Does anyone hav...

No definately using the Euro S50B30 Crank not the US version.

Thanks guys. The reason for using the S50 crank, rods and pistons, is that we already have them sitting on a bench not doing anything, along with a M52 alloy block. The refinement in the S50 crank compared with the standard M52/54 cranks is worth going that little bit further. The reason for doing t...

Hi All, I am going to build a M52 engine using the crank, rods and pistons from an S50 3l. We know that we have to bore the block out 2 mm which means we are going to have stainless steel liners put into the block to make sure that nothing goes wrong. My question is what head should we use, an M54B3...

Damn Dbilas, they don't have a throttle cable for a RHD car.... not happy.

Hi All, Thanks for your help, I did have the ICV the wrong way round but that wasn't the issue, the issue was that the TPS switch wasn't set 100% right, once I had reset it so it was right the engine just purrs. :) Does anyone know if Dbilas are meant to supply a throttle cable for RHD cars, I have ...

If you had of asked me that question before playing around I would have said yes. Now I am not so sure. I will check it all out tomorrow and see if that's the issue.

Thanks

Just been playing around with it all this afternoon and I have found that if I disconnect the idle control valve the car runs without any issue.... will rev up to 3k and stay there without any issue...

Just another quick question, currently I still have a AFM and the standard Motronic, which has been chipped to deal with the cam, injectors, exhaust changes that I have made. I would like to keep the car as standard as possible but should I be looking at going to a megasquirt or something like that?...

Ok, thanks I will organise to get it to a workshop so they can check it out... thanks for the advice.

Cheers

Thanks Turbo-Brown I will look into that, though it means trailering the car to a workshop. Due to the car having a M52 2.8l crank and the dbilas I have E36 3.0l M3 injectors in it, which were fine before the dbilas upgrade, so it shouldn't be an issue with how much fuel though maybe I need a bigger...

Hi All, I have a 88' 325i which I have installed a Dbilas multi throttle intake manifold onto and have got the engine running. The issue I am currently faced with is that it idle's fine but when the rev's rise to more than 1750rpm the revs drop down to 1000rpm and then rises back up to 1750 again be...

Hi,

Do you know if it is possible to fit E36 M3 3.2 Evo multi throttle body manifold to a M20??? If so is there much to do apart from linkages, throttle cable and plenium chamber???

Thanks
Leigh
