no idea. do you have a randomly different e36 m42 ecu? if so, why not swap to an ecu that can be chipped.

If you can read your stock chip and send me a file, I'll try to make you a chip.

I have the same problem. you have an E36 318ti ECU like me

it's a problem i know. and my solution atm is to find a n E36 318iS ECU and do a direct swap.

you should do that same...

wont they have different configurations wth the ews wiring and all??would that b a problem,...please let me know if u have experimented successfully.

The EWS is the main problem. I've had to forgoe any attempts to put a chip in for now, just because i need to get the EPROM off the original, and not many people can do that where i am.

it's not as easy as a straight swap. found that out the hard way.

If you can source a 990 ECU, I have an awesome (and rare) Schatz & Krum performance chip for the non EWS ECU (not ECU 282, that is 1/95 and up with EWS2).

There shouldn't be anything about the Ti ECU that makes it unable to chip. I know for a fact that Tuner sells a chip, they don't specifically say Ti but it's the same thing. I have one in my car.

Hey Yo! It's a ece/euro dme dude. You gotta find it on ebay UK. There will be up for listing once a while. By the way, what's wrong w/ it. If you want it I got one as you see up here
