I have a e82 128i and on a hunch
Got a race chip XLR throttle pedal box used.

Hitch is it's has a Mercedes plug. I might be wrong but I think I can wire it in to my car.
It just tells the ecu how to make the throttle body react correct?

Who wants and has time to help me through this? I'm not inept. Just need a second opinion.

It's for a rally car I am building out and I went this direction instead of coding for adjustability on the fly. .

128i Gravel Stage Rally build https://www.1addicts.com/forums/show....php?t=1798319

I found this video very informative. It should be the same for our cars yeah?



Thanks alex.

First of all...WOW, 75HP and 77LB-FT of torque gained while increasing MPG up to 20% with their GTS kit...and it's only $499.

2nd, why would you think a part for a Mercedes would work on your BMW?

There is no power increase.
It's only a changes the progression of the pedal. Like a sport button.

The electrical mechanics of the pedal is quite
Simple. All modern cars that use them work
The same way.

Maybe you didn't pick up on my sarcasm, I'm fully aware this doesn't increase power, just quoting their website.

I think I got it all figured out wiring wise. I just need some nice butt end connectors.

Coming along. Found these monster butt end phone connectors are perfect for this.

I think I have the wiring all correct two groups
Of potentiometers. 5v/signal/ground.

Now to splice into the plug in the car unless someone knows where I could get male plug? ....
