Damn what a witch's brew. Time to redo it since it's out with the old and in with the new.

Out, resistor packs to control flyback. In, pulse width modulation to do it. Out, the DIY-WD O2 board ( big pain the ass ). In, Tech Edge WB O2. Out, MSD 6A. In, EDIS ignition.

Car's really turning into a bastard. It's a Porsche VW, Ford, Honda, Subaru, Chevy, BMW. Gotta go find some Mopar to use. There's a few custom parts, too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

Any chance this thing will make it to LA?

Too much to face right now. I think I'll have beer. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drunk.gif)

The intake side of your cam is a profile from a Chrysler!

Dave, If you're looking for Mopar, try a Throttle-body. Ok, actually it'll probably be Holley, but in a way you get Holley and Mopar at the same time.

Ben's 914 turbo has parts from:
BMW (fuel pump)
Subaru (turbo)
Saab (blow-off valve)
Chrysler (Throttle body)
Jeep (injector plugs)
Chevy (airbox)

oh no.....'Chung has been bit by the "cannot leave it alone" bug , hahahahaha

Dave, I feel your pain, the wiring harness is the most difficult part if you want it to look good and be easy to trouble shoot....I'm getting really good at figuring out what AMP connector and pins/sockets go with each other (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

for anyone running msefi on their air cooled, did you use the stock head and intake air
temp sensors and adapt the msefi? can the gm sensors be used in an air cooled application, even thought they're meant for a waterpumper?

yes, you can use the stock sensors, and yes you can use GM sensors......mine is a combo of both

i've been wondering that for a while. very interested in the msefi, but i only really want to mess with fuel programming, not senor maps or whatever. waiting for ultra megasquirt. OT but, how well do you guys think a mild or wild (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) carb cam would work with the msefi?

Seems if folks in the club have already figured out the sensor maps for stock sensors, you can pirate their research. .. seems Mr. Hunt has conveniently posted his stock sensor maps on his website (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) . . . .

I'm interested in how he mounted the crank trigger wheel and sensor for EDIS . . . not that I understand spark advance curves, but just curious. . . not that I'm going to change anything on a perfectly running car, but if it were to happen to break all of a sudden (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

But I already have 2 megasquirt units and no motors to put them in. . . but they work on the stim. ... and it seems some FI parts are no longer obtainable. The MS is fun. . ..

on the OT, I just took out the wiring/sheetrock in a perfectly functional house. . .. crap! too many projects. . .. but it's what paid for purchasing Rob's A/X car. . ..
