N5X Tuning Spreadsheet

This guide provides information for tuning BMW N54/N55 engines using flash tuning utilities or piggyback controllers like JB4. It discusses logging parameters, wastegate duty cycle (WGDC) tuning, and adjusting various engine management settings like boost limits, torque limits, and diagnostic code disabling. The guide emphasizes the importance of logging changes to assess their effects and provides some baseline tuning suggestions as a starting point.

nd using the calculator:
Lambda? Out of the scope of this spreadsheet. Ignore it if you don't get it.
e to "max power rich" lambda/AFR as you can for your choice fuel, never go leaner than "max power lean" except for economy

WAYS hit the target, so if you target max lean, you'll most likely not always hit it and leave power on the table
nerPro XDF is scaled for GASOLINE

S- damn near every relevant AFR should be between max power rich and max power lean
S- As close to max power lean as you can get away with, leaner where you aren't concerned with racing, richer where safety is a concern

HAN STOICH (14.7:1 afr), your EGT will go up. NOx emissions will go up. Primary cats will not be happy with you. Gas companies will not
ow load situations. Misfires are common around 17:1, so don't push too far as there is fluctuation in AFR naturally, and EGR will effect this

to heat… meaning you might make more power with richer AFR targets to around 11.8 or 12.0, due to timing.

These tables can be dangerous and are hard to guess without a dyno and many logs. SO DO NOT GUESS VALUES AND NO HU
Things that can affect spark advance tables GLOBALLY are fuel type and compression generally
E85- Ethanol has a slower flame speed than gasoline. On our motors it's not a huge deal, though.
Below 100 load generally- Leave 0-700 RPM stock or 0.5 more advance, then add in timing as RPM increa
Above 100 load generally- you will run more advance than race gas tunes, I like 10-11 degrees at spool, M

Race gas- The only part of the table you need concern yourself with is after 100 load. 9-10 degrees at spool with 12

Notes- Flame speed decreases on BOTH sides of stoich, so if you have lean cruise AFR's over 14.6:1 you can incr
If you have very rich AFR's you can sometimes increase timing in those cells depending on mods and con
After peak torque, slowly increase timing with RPM
Too little timing creates excess heat (no biggie, leaves via exhaust)
Too much timing (especially through the midrange) creates cracked ringlands and blown motors
Just right timing takes a Dyno and a long session, or you can aim at rational values and clean logs on the

Timing shenanigans, why are they LOWER at vaccu

If you wire in a switched resistor to your IAT sensor, you can setup antilag. JB4 is doing this now as well.
You want to create an IAT timing table that removes all of your base timing (10-12 degrees usually) at very low reported temp
Best way to set this up is to creat a static total correction, and use the correction factor to dynamically vary timing. Necessary
MAKE SURE TO CHANGE THE BREAKPOINTS ON THE IAT CORRECTION FACTOR TABLE SO THE FIRST COLUMN IS MUCH COLDER

OT GUESS VALUES AND NO HUGE CHANGES!!! Small changes to advance tables based on logs is key.

eal, though.
en add in timing as RPM increases if you'd like up to around 2 degrees.
I like 10-11 degrees at spool, MBT on 100% E85 is around 14 degrees, 13.5 for E50-E60

9-10 degrees at spool with 12.5 degrees up top works well.

AFR's over 14.6:1 you can increase timing slightly in those cells (works well with E85)
s depending on mods and conditions. It's a balance as to what will give you the most power, AFR vs timing, decide on a dyno.

wever you'd like to get the calculated LSA value higher, definitely over 90, higher still if you'd like to reduce it even more.

This means, you can prevent knock (to an extent) by adding in overlap in some situations. This gets tricky, however, due to thermal mana
vents are in crank degrees. The smaller the LSA value, the closer the events are to each other. Get them close enough and you have lots
the intake manifold. This contributes to carbon buildup, but also fills the cylinder with inert gas and improves fuel economy by decreasing
gas or at low throttle, the engine will not engine brake as hard, allowing you to coast in gear farther.
adjust the LSA on a single cam, this leads to a "lopey" idle. BMW's have silky smooth idle due to high LSA values at idle
