BMW E46 2.0d — ECU calibration after engine modifications
Dyno readings before and after ECU remapping on a BMW E46 2.0d with an EDC16C1 control unit.
This 2001 BMW E46 2.0d with an EDC16C1 control unit was checked after modifications made by the owner. A larger intercooler had been fitted, and the EGR valve had been removed. The video lists standard figures of 150 hp and 330 Nm.
With the original ECU file, but after those hardware changes, the dyno recorded 163 hp and 400 Nm. After the software calibration, the result was approximately 198 hp and 481 Nm.
The comparison shows that the car's output with the original software already differed from the standard figures after the hardware changes. The final power measurement was made after the ECU remap.
