e85 map 5 - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

oma3710 · 09-16-2012, 11:13 AM

I put in e85 yesterday and I was wondering how long does it take for map 5 to recognize it. I'm still only boosting 14lbs. I thought it was supposed to go up to 17-18lbs.

My experience with it it took about a week to adjust everyone has different results, started at 13 psi then started it to pick up slowly until a week later were I was getting 18psi according to the fuel highjack to boost. Then I started going to a closer gas station to get the e85 and it drop back to 15-16psi, depending were I was at the time I would put gas at station A wich was were I was seeing 18psi wich I'm usually around he 2-3 times a week and if I was tire at night and didn't want to stop at station A then the next day I'll put at station B where I was getting 15-16 psi but but I stop doing that, stop being lazy at night and started getting it at gas station A because I didn't like the inconsistency of the boost, now I've been at 18-19 psi for some time and loving it. Just have bms caí and muffler delete.

you need to go out and do 4 or 5 3rd or 4th gear pulls.. that is how the JB4 adapts

THanks. I will do that right now.

Gugs · 09-16-2012, 12:33 PM

Go all the way through 3rd gear a few times. Takes like 3 solid pulls. auto learn doesn't start til like 3k if I remember correctly.

and remember not all e85 is the same...

ksalih · 09-16-2012, 05:34 PM

Go for a couple third gear pulls, let the car sit. Start her up the next day, BAM baby. btw what mix are u using?

psmitty95 · 09-16-2012, 05:54 PM

If I were you i'd switch to map 1 do maybe 1 pull then go back to map 5 and do 2-3 third gear pulls. That should reset the adapting and up the boost from E85.

Are you on the 15ohm board?

ksalih · 09-16-2012, 07:08 PM

Just filled 60/40 91/e85 today. Seeing the difference after a couple of 3rd gear pulls and letting the car sit for a few.

18psi is usually for FBO cars...when. Had the G4 (have the G5 now) I was hitting 17-18 psi all the time.

That is how it adapts...3rd gear WOT pulls...usually 3 of those and you are good.
