This was designed as a _supplementary injector_ controller only -
the stock setup is still all there and unaltered. It's an L-Jetronic.
(Actually, since I increased the engine size from 3.2 to 3.5 liters, I
raised the fuel pressure from 2.5 to 3.0 bar and tightened the airflow
meter spring about five notches. The meter can "read" the bigger engine
without raising the fuel pressure, but it will run out of range sooner
if the spring is not tightened).
A more ambitious project would be to replace the stock ECU with my
own design... but I'm not feeling up to it! The original design works
well enough that I don't want to re-invent the wheel...
What don't you like about your 528i system? Feel free to e-mail off the
list (or on).
