Ok...
I'm converting my basically stock 2.0L (stock cam, euro Ps and Cs) over to microsquirt. Microsquirt is a megasquirt-derived fuel injection computer that's robot-soldered and factory encased in a weatherproof enclosure. The I/O is implemented as a single, 35-position weatherproof connector. The whole thing is about the size of 2 decks of cards. The system I'm installing was engineered and supplied 100% by McMark. My understanding is that he usually provides these systems for motors that he builds, but I talked him into providing one for me. Below, I will document the install details here for anyone else who talks McMark into selling them a system, or who attempts something similar someday. DISCLAIMER: I won't provide model numbers, prices, or any other info like that in this thread -- please contact McMark directly for those types of details. All I can say is that you get what you pay for and this is a top-notch system that will work for the remaining life of the car. The system provides the following components new:
OK, enough babbling, on to the install! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif) |

I winder how big we can go with the stock plenum, tb and intake runners I think Mark told me 2270, which is the size I'm targeting for my eventual rebuild. Sean isn't talking about displacement. He is wondering how big the air delivery to the displacement can be. I would guess it will depend on the sensors you choose to run your system on. Vacuum signal becomes undependable with big cams and overlap. Get too big with the runners and velocity may become an issue. |
