Hello,
I wanted to document my SDS install as I am doing a few custom steps I haven't seen anyone post yet. I ordered the EFI system with the 02 System (which requires welding in the bung and sensor, more on that later). I already have the Crane Xr700 and the Crane Coil, so my ignition is solid and works well and decided to skip the ignition and crankfire for now. My first goal was to fit the SDS ECU into the existing 914 DJet ECU as I had a couple extra boxes. I am pleased with the results, although I have to mount the O2 sensor and tach boost box, so far I am not sure how I want those items to no be conspicuous in the engine bay. I will post more as I get the install further along, but here are the pics of the box install and fitment...

I did the in the can trick PITA and I wouldn't do it again. I just cut a large hole in th bottom never had a moisture issue, but I did have a good engine seal.
I tried to mount it the way you have it at first, but I felt that the bend in the wires was too extreme and it has a good chance of fatigue and therefore failure. |
