Re: GPS speedo signal
I used some wire near steering wheel rack, probably it was white/black (not sure about the color now), but it worked well. I think it was from speedo or onboard computer. If you don't have onboard computer, you should have the wiring for it anyway.

Re: Z3 2.8 remap after big port inlet manifold

The M54b30 manifold that I fitted has much larger ports than the standard m52u. Not worth it if you use car as DD and not for track days. Probably just shifting torq...

Re: Cinders
They are not shown in INPA, but I can see them with RomRaider software - it writes the log in real time and you can analyse it later, probably there are other options too. But you have different ECU, so I can't help much here.

Re: Cinders
Ok, if you say fuel injector pulse widths are according to ECU tables, then I am guessing that injectors are bad or misaligned cams. But that's just wild guess. Others things should throw some error codes IMHO.

When engine is cold o2 sensors are not in a play. Fuel is enriched until engine is at it's normal working temp. And cam position sensor should throw an error. Maybe sticking idle valve or something like that?
