I thought folks here might like this. I posted the photos on FB too. This is my 3.0 liter that got a MaxxECU this winter along with Racehead ITB. It came out great. It's very odd to just reach in, fiip the ignition switch, and hit the starter. It settles into a nice idle right away!
I had a blast at Summit Point last weekend shaking things down. Some more tuning and it's going to be even quicker. The power comes in strong about 4,800 RPM and it screams up to 7,500! The car has a 3.0, Wossner Pistons about 9.8:1 (IIRC), Web Cam, 915 trans with the shifter from Martin (it's awesome!), Rennshifter, custom Bilstein shocks, Boxster Brakes, and a host of other things. |

Cool! I bought some RHD throttle bodies last year for my 3.2 and need to install them, mine came with a DIY Autotune Computer, it's all from x-faktory. Where did you mount the computer? Also what fuel pump did you go with? I was thinking of the standard Bosch unit. |

Also what fuel pump did you go with? I was thinking of the standard Bosch unit. I thought about the MS3, but the Maxx has a lot of power and configurability. Eventually I want to do drive-by-wire, flex fuel maps, and a few other things. This is full sequential now and I'll hopefully get to do some individual cylinder tuning. Al has done a lot of kits, so I'm sure you'll be happy. The ECU is on the firewall behind where the passenger seat would be (I don't have one). I went with a Walbro pump https://walbrofuelpumps.com/walbro-gsl393-fuel-pump.html It fit the bill and wasn't super overkill as a lot of them are now. it was also easier than doing an in tank pump. |
