    Plug/Gap for 12+psi?

    What plug/gap combo is everyone using for boosting over 12psi? I am currently using ngk BKR6Es @ .032 gap on my setup. I noticed a miss around 4400rpms. Last time I had this problem at 9psi it ended up being that I had too much sparkplug gap. Im wondering at this point if I should go with a...

    The FrankenProtege Megasquirt Thread

    What are you controlling with the megasquirt? Are you using it in parallel mode? If you are, I would suggest hooking the stock ignition back up if possible. Get the car running right off fuel first. then switch the ignition over to ms.

    Turbo swap, 25R to 16G?

    There are a few different flavors of the 16g small 16g - usually 340hp big 16g - usually 350hp evo16g - - usually 380hp I have the evo 16g and am pretty happy with it. The smallest amount of boost I can run is about 9psi. It reaches that by 3800-4000rpm and pulls to redline. I used to have a...

    still researching into it some more. ive read "how to tune and modify engine management systems" all over again after viewing this thread. http://autospeed.drive.com.au/cms/A_0348/article.html http://autospeed.drive.com.au/cms/A_2717/article.html also has a pretty good article on knock...

    Thanks Steve. Very informative. Its weird going from forum to forum to see what trends are. Alot of different forums have different trends as far as the end all soltuion to their ems needs. Focus forums praise the sct tuner or tweecer. Probetalk is completely flooded with megasquirt users. I...

    409whp Yay

    Umm when did I say it was useless? I first suggested megasquirt as a cheap alternative to a piggyback/jgs system and got blasted saying jgs is so much better. Im sorry im intrested on how it compaires to other knock detection systems after hearing that. Im sorry that im looking for answers other...

    409whp Yay

    Again im not seeing much of a difference between that and a megasquirt or other strandalone setup tht uses that feature (especially with megasquirt software being programmible). only benefit i see is that itll let you run closer to the edge of detonation with its "special algorithm" ...which id...

    pardon my lack of knowledge on the jgs system but... Whats the difference between that and jgs knock sensor and a normal one? I thought a knock sensor was just that. How is the jgs able to detect real engine knock from engine noise? Isnt it just a normal knock sensor thats pre-set so it knows...

    if you go megasquirt, you could prolly rig something up like the j&s safeguard...it would sure as hell cost alot less then a piggyback + j&s system

    MP3, MSP, P5 chips/tuners

    thats weird. I thought the chip that sct sells for your car uses the J3 port.

    MP3, MSP, P5 chips/tuners

    *Bump* Im checking on my ecu. It might be alittle different then urs. We are trying to see if we can get tweecer to work on it. I have a ECC-IV so i may be in the clear. the probes also came with EEC-V. One of the probe owners was able to use SCT to tune his. He threw a mustang maf on and...

    electric vs mechanical oil gauges

    Ive had a mechanical one for over a year now. only complaint i have is that it can be a bit noisy at times. its not loud, but it sounds like a loose rattling washer. Can be a bit annoying at times. FYI im also still using a copper oil line thats wrapped like a coil in the dash. That copper line...

    Apexi S-AFC I or II

    i have the safc2 in my car. It sucks from a tuning standpoint. the only real use i get out of it is the ability to idle with 440cc injectors. i WAS considering megasquirt, but thats alot of work on my car. Where can you get mpi tuner? would i have control over my ignition? (fyi i have a disty...

    Torn: Emanage or megasquirt

    im considering megasquirt. luckly i have a 95 ecu...go obd1 !!!! Id really like to get to run megasquirt with my stock ecu with no codes. I know disconnecting the maf will diff pull a code. i wonder if theres a way you could simulate a maf signal.
