Default I might be slightly retarded

Yeah so, I dunno, I am working a "career" now and all the dollars and cents might have gone to my head and turned me slightly retarded.

This is how my 525i sits right now...

Looks good. Your using megasquirt right? Why not go with a dry kit and add the fuel via the injectors?

because if your only going with the dry kit, your car is tuned like ---- when nitrous is not in use.

a wet kit you get the best of both worlds, top performance with and without nitrous.

not true really - the MS has a setup so that it can either switch tables when nitrous is active (both spark and fuel) or you can simply add "X" fuel when nitrous starts and "Y" fuel when nitrous ends, and it interpolates fueling between the nitrous rpm points. However, I didn't feel like messing with it and all. What I am doing though is using MegaSquirt to control the nitrous in terms of on RPM and off RPM based on throttle position and when I run bigger jets I will pull some timing, but initially it's just on/off via MS.

If it is tuned like ---- when off of nitrous it will still be tuned like ---- when the nitrous is on.
Megasquirt has nitrous control built in for 2 stages. When the nitrous is activated it will add fuel, pull timing, delay activation on launch and shifts

Whoopsies read the post wrong.


Yeah MS is a nice setup I love it.

I recommend you go over to MSExtra.com and see what people with a similar setup are doing.
