Here's the guts. TechEdge 2BO Wideband O2 driver is on top; MS II on a version 3 ECU on the bottom. Connections are on the left; power and grounds on the right.

Yes you can, but it is kind of a pain. The tuning software's desktop has 8 gauges that can be assigned. They also give a numerical value. The hard part is getting the right gauges up. They have to be assigned in a .ini file. You can also datalog those functions. Jeff I don't have any idea. It is certainly apparent from the amount of time and the cost of the parts that it wouldn't fly as a second business. The only way I'd consider doing it again is if a beautiful woman in a tight wet T shirt asked with a smile on her face. It is kind of limited to 2.0 l engines because of the harness. Dave |

Well I finally got it started. It's not running well but, I haven't started timing and tuning yet.
What a struggle. I have tried to follow the stock harness and I got tripped up by a little detail I missed. I ran my switched 12 volt power off the 4 pin connector that ran the stock ECU. Pins I, II and IV all have switched 12 V so, I powered the MS and WBO2 off of I and the power for the injectors off of II and IV. That's a big problem cause II and IV are only hot with the key to start. The thing would cough and die, DOH!!. Looking at it now I can see a fine line indicating a trace on the relay board. It's all in the details. I still hope to have it down there for WCR but, if I run into anymore snaffus of my own creation I probably won't. Back's to the wall. Dave |

I think the main benefit is having new parts. Ones you can actually find replacements for, unlike (say) the stock MPS.
Plus the ability to tune the system very easily. --DD |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Well it's almost done. I actually went on a little drive with the package in the car and it ran well. My hope is that whoever wins this will just need to weld an O2 bung in the exhaust, install the stuff and drive away. We'll see. It should be pretty close.
Luckily, I had an old file with the tuning I did on a dyno with this engine so, it didn't take much to get it running well. The acceleration stuff is different with MS II so I had to work over that. And, this thing is a cold blooded pig to start. I needed a ton of cranking fuel. I have a few concerns about flooding cause it seemed like so much gas. Dave |

All done. The last of the docs are printed and the files are on a USB stick. I'm just getting ready to head out in the garage and take it out of the car. I had a nice drive last night and worked out the last few bugs. It should be good to go. Olld Smokie is gonna miss this system. It looked like it did when I got it before I started mixing and matching parts.
Here's the docs Dave Attached image(s) |
