Hello. My car is BMW 325 (m50b25 without vanos). I'm fairly new to the forum and am in the process of gathering hardware and info to convert my stock ecu to MSII v.3 (fuel and spark). Now the car is NA, but in future i want FI (turbo,about 15-20 psi,of course with forged pistons and lower compression). For spark I'm planing to use EDIS 6 with 36-1 wheel, for fuel 6 cycle altering. I have already read few posts about Simultaneous or Alternating but I don't find answer to my questions. The ignition order is 1-5-3-6-2-4. My stock injectors are about 20 lbs/hr , i don't know exactly but it makes 192 hp at flywheel. Stock fuel pressure is 43.5 psi. I use a calculator from megasquirt site and for my stock injectors i get Downloaded Req_Fuel 4.4 ms(according MS FAQ it should be less than 12-15 but more than 8ms), so it is to low. OK, i changed Injector Flow to 11 lb/s get Req_Fuel 8.1 ms. To get 11 lb/s the fuel pressure should be 13.2 psi, I don't think this will work. I have read already about 2:1 and 4:1 FMU, are they a solution for my problem???when FI which injectors should i buy?? I'm planing get around
350-400 hp on wheels.

Ps.Sorry for my English, I'm from Poland.

Thanks for your reply. With 1 cycle simultaneous or 2 cycle alternating I get req_fuel 13.3 ms on stock injectors, it seems correct:) I have already read some posts and people say that with 2 cycle alternating they have got problems with good response to gas pedal and smooth engine running.Is this true?? what is better 1 cycle simultaneous or 2 cycle alternating (I need good take off and engine response)??
