Exact package scope
MS4X’s cited package targets MS430069, E46, M54B30, EU4, left-hand drive. It documents a change from 1389 to 2778 mg/stroke load range and includes the 2048 kg/h MAF modification. It requires matching binary, XDF, ADX and patchlist files; a stock-load partial must not be mixed with the extended-load program. MS4X reference.
Treat the files as a set
Record the exact release and hash of each component. When a numerical representation changes, both editing and logging must interpret that representation consistently. A familiar table name or a 64 kB file size does not establish that consistency.
| Component | Evidence to preserve |
|---|---|
| Full program and calibration | Package identity and original intended application. |
| Editor definition | Supported program, partial/full basis and version. |
| Logger definition | Extended-load interpretation and required logging feature/version. |
| Patchlist | Exact compatibility statement and modifications already included. |
Evaluate the represented range
A useful validation record checks sensor range, internal load, table axes and resulting fuel/ignition behaviour together. Document whether the logger can show the relevant internal quantities without clipping. An increased numeric range does not by itself establish injector capacity, mechanical suitability or a correct intake model.
Use the shared MS42/MS43 load explanation for terminology. Keep results from this software package on this page with its exact scope rather than generalising them to another engine or ECU family. Obtain the files from the original source and retain its contributor credits and release notes.
