Way to go Mike. Feels great when it works for the first time. My MS is 16 months old and has never had a problem. Once you get them together I think they are darn near bullet proof. The only challenges are keeping them cool and DRY.

Mike,
Can you share your engine configuration and MS setup parameters with us? I'd like to see how they compare. Always looking for something else that can be tweeked a little more. TIA |

Gerard,
I started off with the same configurations as Dave Hunts programming. (see his website, they are under Screen Shots of Constants ) He has a fast idle circut, I do not and right now the weather is perfect so no need for it. My engine is a 1.8 (~8.15:1 compression) with stock 2.0 heads. 2.0 intake, 2.0 throttle body, 1.8 injectors (refrub'd, but will be replaced with 2.0 injectors when the turbo gets installed) I'm still playing around with the enrichments for acceleration, I can vary the amount of fuel depending on how fast I hit the throttle. I felt safe using Daves parameters since his motor is a 2.0 and I thought it ran great when I drove it at the WCC, mine should be just as nice. When I test it with an O2 sensor, I'll know better how close I am. Car is still up on jack stands without axles installed so I have not been able to put a load on the engine to see how well it performs. I think it's going to move along pretty darn well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) What is nice is that with the MS, you can save your current setup file, change parameters and if you don't like them, just a few mouse clicks and you have your original settings... I'm going to install the crankfire ignition before the turbo...I still have to make the trigger wheel (modify the Ford unit) and with the way my projects go, that'll be a few more months, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |

I did a thread with the sensor and trigger wheel. Iyou already have the trigger wheel from an EDIS car, the wheel itself can be removed with heat from the harmonic balancer/pulley. I had a small step cut into the trigger wheel to adjust the offset, then I drilled and tapped it for bolts. I had a piece of chromoly mahined to fit the trigger wheel and it was drilled to correspond to the fan hub. the whole thing fits between the fan and fan hub instead of the stock washer. The VR sensor is mounted to the back of the fan shroud under the oil cooler. Dave |
