I don't know cost or anything, just noticed those while looking for some other things. |

It must be new because I don't remember their having an option for a 36-1 trigger wheel when I started my edis project back in February. I had to fab my own bracket and modify a stock trigger wheel. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/images.thesamba.com-11782-1370615044.1.jpg) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/images.thesamba.com-11782-1370615045.2.jpg) I wonder where that sensor mount is supposed to go? It looks like maybe off the fan housing. I wonder if you have to make holes or if there is any adjustability. Mine is still a work in progress. I am thinking of trying it in gimp mode this weekend. Got to wire keyed power, ground, and put new plugs with the nubbies for the wires I custom crimped, start it up in limp home mode I hope.

Did a wideband A/FR come with the kit also or do you already have one installed.....it will be your best friend for tuning so make sure it's healthy! Keep us posted--tuning is a real brain exercise...

get him on this forum...get him hearing the Type4 issues.
Maybe he has a solution. A bolt on kit would be my preference, with maps that will get the motor started enough to get it to a dyno... I have a question. In this type of system, how is air measured? How radical of a camshaft could be introduced? Rich |

I have a question. In this type of system, how is air measured? How radical of a camshaft could be introduced? Rich It's a microsquirt an off shoot of megasquirt, pretty well the same thing. He's just putting components together in a kit form. This guy is out of the UK and has been doing it quite a while, my guess is this stuff does fit a pancake engine fan. You still have to remove the engine, etc. As far as a MAP goes one could figure out a ballpark MAP, but you would still need to tune with a WB and most likely dyno time. No free lunch on that, a SDS system will save you the dyno time, but you pay for the pro built system. I'd say McMark can put together a similar package for you. |

The bolt pattern is definitely for the fan, to fit where an air conditioner pulley would, but it may not fit with stock cooling - a lot of the type 4 builds I have seen had to be upright conversion cooling, that's how most people do it.

Those intakes and throttle bodies are CB Performance units. Don't know about everything else.

QUOTE I'd say McMark can put together a similar package for you. He has for a couple years. Only with a trigger setup that's less complicated and can be installed in the car. With a wiring harness that's actually plug and play. With sensors from GERMAN cars so they look right. I'm sure they're stuff will work, but it's by no means a finished and ready to install setup. |

It's all good. I needed a 36-1 wheel and some adjustability on the angle to do edis. Megasquirt is more flexible that way, where you can compensate for anything in the software.

How did you get that photo angle? Edit. No wait, what am I looking at in the first place. Out of my league here (common). |

It's hard for me to tell but, if that bracket for the hall sensor is going between the case and the fan shroud there will be some machining needed on the shroud or it will sit wrong. I had to take about an eighth off 2 of the bosses on the fan shroud to mount my sensor.

Somebody said he's in Great Britain, no. There may be an English company with that same name, I don't know, but this guy is Monroe, WA, just north of Seattle.
Like I said, he was recommended to my son by DIY Autotune, who are long-time reputable, and he did good, fast, and reasonable work. I don't know a lot more than that, but I did send him a link to this thread so he's aware of 914 interest. If you want to contact him directly try The Dub Shop on Facebook, www.thedubshop.net, (206) 414-8456, or e-mail mario@thedubshop.net. He's been doing this part time for a while, just opened this company early this year to do it full time. He assembles Micro and Megasuirts, modifies them according to customer needs, makes harnesses, and sells parts and complete kits for VW A/C engines. |

You'll have to ask him about that. MAP is built in to the boards, I know, but Megasquirt can be configured any way you want it, using any kind of MAF sensor you want to choose. Try www.msefi.com and all your questions will be answered... plus about a million you never thought to ask.
