I am pretty happy with my stock FI. But after seeing some of the setups at Okteenerfest, I thought this might be worth trying.
The stock system is not easy to modify and get things running correctly. I spent a lot of time making minor adjustments by trial and error. While I am not looking for huge HP gains or anything, it is pretty clear that the mods I have could potentially benefit from a bit more precise control. Going to start with fuel only at this point to get things going and see where it leads me. Any help or suggestions for set up would be appreciated. |

I appreciate all of the intelectual comments. I am afraid they will most likely confuse the OP. If he simply find follows the recommendation in the Megasquirt/Microsquirt manuals all will be good.
By the way 2.0 injectors check out at slightly less than 2.5 ohms when cold. |

So all you need to do is use 4.7 ohm resistors as specified in the Megasquirt/Microsquirt documentation. |

Ok still thinking about the placement of the resistors. Because the ground is common to both the injectors and they essentially fire at the same time would there not be another 2.5 Ohms of resistance in the circuit? If so, placing the resistor in the location shown would make more sense as the 3 Ohm recommend by the DIYautotune would give the needed resistance. |
