A z4 would be no use to you, its mapped for a td05.

You will need a mappable ecu like a power fc or the esl live map board.

If you was to fit the fmic without changing anything else you would get turbo lag i believe.

See www.polarperfromance.co.uk or JollyGreenMonster.co.uk and i think Bob Rawle maps the ESL live chipsets

i wouldn't bother on a standard car you will get increased lag and no real power improvement.
