I'm new to this list........ So Hello
Well - the title says it all. I will probably keep my 1.7L for at least another year and I want to replace the 33 year old F.I. with something new. I'll probably get new injectors too. Has anyone converted to a Megasquirt on a 1.7L?? Any significant improvements over a properly running stock F.I. system?? Any negatives?? Easy to tune (I have a LM-1 Wideband meter)?? Any particular megasquirt model?? Any recommendations?? thanks Steve C 72 914 81 RX-7 99 Volvo S-80 |

He might appreciate your comments regarding the connectors. He's obviously put in lots of hours figuring out every detail of the installation so I don't begrudge him a 100% profit at this point. I imagine as the Megasquirt gets more well known in the 911 community more people will be making kits or parts for kits which will allow one to easily do it cheaper. He also sells a partial kit and I think he will even sell just the fuel rails if you wanted to do everything else yourself.
For the 911 guys I think it's an ok deal considering you don' t have to do any fabricating. I'd still like to see proper before/after dyno runs on the same car with CIS and then with Megasquirt. I'm not ready to do this to my SC but the combination of SSI + megasquirt yielded a 41hp increase over stock hp which is damn impressive. I noticed he was able to do this without a TPS. This is part of new code in the megasquirt, right? Can we do that for the 914 and not need a TPS? |
