Thread: E78 to E38 swap pondering

    E78 to E38 swap pondering

    I'm happy with the way my turbo 6.0 is running on my E78 but only on open loop and I'm kinda thinking the ease and consistency of closed loop maybe worth the hassle of repinning for the E38. Closed loop is unacceptable to me without the ability to vary AFR with boost levels when in CL on the E78 as it's very wasteful of fuel and makes the engine stumble at low rpm. Fast spooling turbo problems...

    I'm willing to give it a whirl, but has anyone done this and managed to get it to work correctly with a factory BCM and an unmatched pedal?

    If it'll work, anyone have a good source besides the junkyard for the connectors?

    Did you ever get the swap to work?
