I've been doing some reading online and have found that there are some folks who have run into issues with the alternator and throttle body connectors being different between the harnesses, while others claim that it is plug n play.
    God speed, I look forward to it!

    I do know for a fact the alternator plug to the voltage regulator is different. You can buy the voltage regulator separate and it fits. I have a brand new ms 43 regulator that I would be willing to sell you.

    This is huge for Hobbits turbo kit he tested on E46F. Hopefully this develops, because I was hoping to go MS43/turbo in a few years

    Wouldn't you also need to change the O2 sensors from the wideband LSU 4.2 based sensors in our cars to the narrowband sensors that the MS43 cars have?

    Update:

    I am actively looking for an E53 X5 as a new DD. After three great years of DD use, the ZHP is going to be set aside for fun, finally. It's long overdue for some cosmetic love, as well as some odds & ends, here and there. By implementing a new DD, I'll be able to address all of those items, as well as dive deep into this project.

    Stay tuned.

    So I am still curious what is the difference between the 2? What is the advantage of the MS43?

    A quick google search revealed the following for pin outs and work others have done: http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=929951

    Everything above in the thread. The 45 has not been unlocked and is not tunable. The 43 is

    I have been looking at forced induction and it looks like Nick G was able to tune the MS45: http://www.techniquetuning.com/e46zhpman.html

    Are we talking about the same thing here?

    There's just much less going on with ms45. Everything is all laid out for us with 43

    I hope I am not coming off as being difficult or challenging, I'm really just curious and want to understand.

    I was on e46F and found a thread with a link to this site which appears to offer software to reprogram the ms45.

    I don't know anything about what it can or can't do I'm just curious if this makes the 45 any easier?
