There is certainly an ignition table in there somewhere, there is one in the M3.3.1 which carried over a lot of the tables from the non vanos ECU.

I think you need to ask the person that gave you that file, from what I can see it is set up the same as a stock 405 E34 tune but is only 32kb.
Comparing the two in a hex editor shows them as the same until near the end of the file when the 64kb 405 file begins to differ for obvious reasons.

I would start by either finding those injector dead times or swapping in a known set, these ECUs really need to know how fast the injectors open to work right.

Without getting that table set up right any other adjustment is going to be guess work or a work around.
