pros and cons of digi 1



My setup is pretty funny...

So I moved the battery to the trunk partially because I thought it would
get in the way of whatever intake setup I'd have to go with.  I got
impatient and used the stock cis-e setup.

I drilled a hole in the rubber intake boot and put the air temp sensor
in there.  Also, I pulled off the fuel distributor and the air flap from
the air box.  Removing the fuel distributor leaves a hole that I simply
taped up.  I think a corrado aftermarket cone filter setup would work
though.

I have an added question for this...

WHat do you run for an airfilter now on a n/a setup? I am having
problems figuring out what to run on my car once I get rid of CIS-E.

Pros: 
1) the MAP sensor knows how to deal with up to 1 bar of boost
2) you shouldn't have cis-e's problem of going lean at high rpms.  Of
course that's easily fixed by a fuel enrichment module.
3) my car has started better, ran smoother and more consistently with
digifant 1 compared to cis-e
	
Cons: 
1) it's a pain to setup.  To do it properly you should add a relay for
the ECU (I didn't do this).
2) you have to get a custom fuel rail (Ross Machine and Bahn Brenner are
the main ones but there are people on vortex who make copper ones for a
lot less).  If you have AC the fuel rail my get in the way.
3) if you get a bad harness like I did you may be scratching your head
for a while.

I don't think it's worth the swap if you are going to stay NA.
