- ESS Supercharged E39 M5 Data-logging With FREE Software: TESTO
In preparation for turning the boost up on the Supercharged E39 M5, I needed to get some software working so I could data log and monitor what the car is doing. After my tuner recommended Testo I thought I would give it a go and see what data we can get from the stock DME.
Please do let me know if you have any ideas on what might be happening with the intake air temp sensor.

I love that you guys keep the channel running and the great content coming at us even when things go bad. AWESOME channel.
After the recent support from the 'supporters' it really made us realize how many people are hanging out to see what is happening next, so definitely gotta keep them coming now! And thanks for your contribution Scott!
Hell yeah let's get this show on the road 💪
Hell yeah, I can't wait to let her rip!
Cmon then, chop chop 👍😁
I'm getting there! 😅
@@ZeroTo60Tube - Good lad. Sorry to hear about the 335i, I've been watching you guys closely with that build and your M5. I have an FBO+Meth 335i myself 😁👍
Keen to see more of this car
More is coming 👌
Testo is great. I've been using it to monitor ignition timing after a custom tune I made.
The air temperature sensor should be connected to both the brown and the yellow with blue stripe wire. The others should be unused
Woohooo been waiting to see more of this car
Nice to see it back on the channel. Been a while. Keep it coming. When's the panel beater booked ?
was originally supposed to go in 2 weeks ago but theyre are still getting hammered and rather than them prioritizing this thing I'd rather it go on the back burner. Just thinking from an economic stand point you know
Learned to drive manual trans on an E39 540i Sport 6spd and always listed after the next level up so looking forward to digging in with you from Tennessee. Glad you guys are growing! - previous videos mentioned supporters or subscribers or something but couldn’t find link quickly to support. Point me in right direction?
Well thats one hell of a car to learn to drive in, nice work. Regarding the supporters link i'll put it here and thanks for even checking it out 🙏

See, TH-cam? I'm engaged! Look, I liked and commented on the video.
Even if TH-cam doesn't, I sure appreciate ya!
If you disconnect the IAT Sensor (remove the cable from the sensor) do you still get a reading? If so, might be shorting under the tap.
I have this ESS kit on my E39 M5 and that IS NOT how the wiring for the IAT sensor should look, the splices into the MAF wires are connected close the the original MAF plug. In your case someone has messed with you IAT wires and it looks like there's a bad connection or they've wired them backwards. I hope this helps 👌
Perfect Nathan thanks for the insight!
I’d love to see the bonnet vents make it into the new bonnet
Yeah I would like to make use of them too which is why I’ve kept the old bonnet. Will see what we can come up with
Keep up the good vids!
We will!
Ha love the T-shirt, and that sound 🎶 👌
me too 😁
Only work the standalone version I don’t know why and can you tell what the value for ignition and throttle
So now we've got a tuner, time for no lift shifts? 😉 Send it like cleetus!
When she’s done it will 100% have NLS 😅😍😬⚙️
Wait what? S62 uses MSS52, MSS54 is S54 ECU. They are very similar though.
Nice work and useful. I wonder if I will be able to get it working on my e36 m3 with obd1? Have to get an adapter and give it a try.
Don't hold me to it but I have a feeling it will work with the e36 once youve got the OBD1 - 2 adapter. Definitely worth a shot anyway
@@ZeroTo60Tube yeah I think so, especially if the software is free. I know I am able to get codes and reset service with my basic tool so fingers crossed. I'll give it a go.
If you have any questions I'm more than happy to help
Heyy, can you link us the software you used for logging?
What is the cable you use to connect between the OBD and PC mate? Is the E39 OBD2?
K+Dcan cable will do the job. If you get a switchable one you can fiddle with later models.
Yes, what @themultidouche said 👍 And yes the late E39s are OBD 2 but the early ones are OBD 1 so will have to check which plug youve got
@@ZeroTo60Tube thanks for the info guys, love the videos keep them coming, just got myself a second engine block for my ESS supercharged E39 M5, looking at building it for 800bhp eventually
Great vid! Who are you using for the remote tune? I've got a sc audi rs4 and am in the same boat as you. Car is running super rich and blows smoke which i think is due to carbon build up.
Ive gone with HTE performance tuning. You can check their instagram to see some of their work @hte_performance_tuning instagram.com/hte_performance_tuning/?hl=en
@@ZeroTo60Tube thanks for that. Keen to see how yours goes!
What fuel pump did you use when you installed the ess charger ? Also what size injectors did you use ? Stock ess ones ? Thanks
Hi Mike, I got the car with the ess kit already installed. The injectors are the optinon upgrade ones from ess. I can't remember the size right not but i think they are around 350cc. Only last week i did have to change the fuel pump on the car. Its not got a walbro 460 in it and running so much better.
@@ZeroTo60Tube nice one man,have you had it dynoed since hte did the tune ?
What are you guys running for an OS on the computer? I have TestO standalone 2016, everything runs fine but I cannot get it to read my AEM UEGO. I know data is being sent from the gauge as I tested it with PuTty but whenever I click AEM/airfuel ratio, the screen pops up empty. Running Windows 11, brand new serial cable that is confirmed working via PuTty. Did you have to mess with any of the configs? Thank you.
Have you solved this problem?
@@Zeestas nope, still doesn’t pick up my AEM.
We want N54 back please...
S62 is in charge now....
lol just joking, it'll be back soon!
Hello I have a m5 e39 ess vt560 with the 92 mm pulley I don't understand why I only have 407 hp and 505 nm at the wheels I have the impression that the car takes the boost too late or the ess mapping is not great
There are big issues with the cars pulling timing. The kit as is is very “safe”. To get the true 560hp at the engine out of it everything need to be perfect. 407whp your probably a smidge over 500 at the engine so not far off.
Meth, inter cooler and some good fuel are the normal things people start with when improving these kits.
We will be starting with either meth or and intercooler once we get the car back on the road. Oh and of course a custom tune from HTE instead of the worldwide blanket tune they come with from ess.
@@ZeroTo60Tube
the power I gave is of course to the wheels at the engine I have 487 hp the problem is that I have no engine fault the Vanos are redone and the tests ok what is the octane number in your home? thanks
@@christopherfontaine8408 Our fuel is between the US 91 and 93 octane. Our pump fuel does not have any ethanol blended in it at all, where the states they have 10% ethanol pretty much everywhere which in turn bumps the octane slightly. Your power numbers are about right for a stock ess kit with pump fuel in average conditions when using the generic ess tune. I wouldnt worry too much, unless you want to start spending more money on mods and custom tuning. You should do a draggy 100-200 run and make some sense of the power numbers. You're up close to 100hp over a stock s62 and that will make a massive difference to actual performance.
@@ZeroTo60Tube
Hello
Thank you for your reply I know that the power obtained on my vehicle is already correct
with the draggy I am at 9.7 seconds for the 100/200
but I still wonder how Ess gets 580 hp with the 92mm pulley
I have it's still 90 hp more do you think this is due to lower quality gasoline? or something else?
thank you
@@christopherfontaine8408 it will be lower quality fuel and intake temps. the supercharged s62 create a lot of heat which in turn causes timing to be pulled. I bet if you could dyno your car with in the perfect cold dense air and very good fuel you'll be there. Also keep in mind dynos are not accurate for comparisons a 10% fluctuation on a dyno is not uncommon even the same car on the same dyno test a month a apart will show a different power reading. They are really a tuning tool, not a measuring tool. Your 9.7 is pretty quick. Did you time it before the supercharger kit by any chance? I think these stock are 13 or 14 seconds 100-200.

Hi guys, where did you download that TESTO software? I need it to get my car tuned.
My tuner remoted on to my laptop and installed it for me
@@ZeroTo60Tube Ok, is there any way for me to get in contact with you 2 on facebook? Would be great to get some more information from you that already did this:)
@@stbo84 unfortunately we can't keep up with the facebook messages or insta, its gotten too time consuming unfortunately. So either of those dont get checked very often. We still focus on youtube comments and the members groups. Most support goes to our members, but if you don't want to join up, just shoot comments through and we will normally reply with in a day. A new comment will get a faster response than replying to an existing comment, just due to how youtube notifies us. It gets bloody hard when you have days with up to 400 comments. Following on from your first comment tho, who ever if going to tune your car will be able to hook you up with the software. We can not recommend HTE tuning enough, hes made everything almost too easy for this car.
@@ZeroTo60Tube Oh i get that people are getting in contact with you, as its not that common with a supercharged S62, and i bet we all have felt a bit overlooked on the internet. But a boosted S62 is a beast:D Do you still run the stock pulley? I have upgraded to the 92mm pulley for a small boost increase, and as i live in cold climate here in Norway i will most likely benefit greatly on a new tune on this one.
@@stbo84 ohhhh yeah, the S62 is awesome. We've done just over 300 DIY style vids now and they all create questions for people tackling stuff themselves at home, much more than we ever would have expected and we try and reply to as many questions as possible. This is the full playlist for the S62 story. May answer a lot of your questions about the setup if you time to get through it. th-cam.com/video/ZU86ScQROjc/w-d-xo.html
I've said it before, I'd remove the whole SC stuff alltogether and get the car back to stock, drives much better... That's coming from a guy who had an E39 M5 and ESS SC E92 M3 in the past... :D
I would whole heartedly disagree. It’s all in the tune, I would never take my supercharged car back to n/a.
I have to concur. Before owning this car I didn't think much of superchargers but it adds so much to this car/engine. Not in terms of power (although it does add a lot of that too) but when people hear it and see it they lose their minds. Plus, to have boost noise without losing the epic V8 sound from the S62 is my favourite thing in the world haha
@@ZeroTo60Tube I'm with you on this. Mine makes more than double the factory wheel horsepower, in linear fashion that is unlikely to cause damage. You get to keep the sound, you get a sizeable power boost and you are less likely to smash a rod, it is all wins once you get all the teeth problems sorted for sure.
Super excited to see how you go after fixing the IAT issue.
So does anyone here have an e39 m5? Tbh I cannot afford the m5, n54's are much cheaper
Has it not got the ess stock map on it at the moment ? You shouldn't be running so rich with the stock ess file.
It looks like it is the stock ESS map but it is VERY rich. The previous owner did say he put bigger injectors in to get ready to run more boost but never did. So that combined with the faulty IAT reading could be the reason its so rich
