megasquirt

[sad_rocc at yahoo.com (Dan Smith)]

Ok, cool that's a start. So, since I'm not familiar with our wiring (I'm just getting the mechanical stuff down so far), what's left? What I'm trying to figure out is if I go turbo, I'd like to go digi1 for the chipping and added boost ability. If I do megasquirt instead, do I not need to buy the digi1 stuff? Do I just need some of it? At least I know what part you're referring to Ron. I look forward to others' input.

Picture this: remove your CIS setup from the filter to the injectors (note: CIS is Continuous
Injection System - the injectors spray all the time). Get some Bosch electrically fired injectors
- like Digifant, Motronic, Ford, etc. setups use - and install them. Devise a fuel rail and
regulator to feed them fuel at the correct pressure. Now all you have to do is fire them - that's
what MS does. It takes a signal from the dizz, a vacuum signal, a throttle position signal,
coolant temp, and O2 signal, and maybe a few more. 

The cool thing is that YOU can configure MS to squirt how much to squirt, under what conditions,
etc. You download software (free) that graphs out how close you are to optimum, and tweak from
there. 

The controller box is the DIY. Buy components from the bills of material, sit down and solder it
all together. Takes a bit of time and a bit of skill, but not tons.

Wire it up and go!

Now how do I know all that? I'm about 90% done with my build, and the install comes pretty
soon...

Dan Bubb will expand on my 5th grade explanation, I hope...
