mrbeige 0 Posted December 22, 2006 All came to £162 inc delivery + £30 duty (god damn HM Customs!) sh!tty death, that's good value - where did you buy it from? I got it from Glen's Garage. Took a while to come, but as the dollar is so weak at the mo, it seemed the best option! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CrazyDave 0 Posted December 31, 2006 Must be built by now????? If you need anything give me a shout, or maybe that'll be the other way round. My mate is about due to start his 16v Golf Turbo! I guess you'll have all the same problems: No throttle position sensor. Distirbutor signal interface. Injector rail and injectors. And that's before you get to the turbo! Should be good though, the 16v turbos I've seen so far are very good. If you want to borrow a stim board give me a shout! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted December 31, 2006 Must be built by now????? Not yet! Been busy over Christmas!! If you need anything give me a shout, or maybe that'll be the other way round. Think I'll be calling you dude! I guess you'll have all the same problems: No throttle position sensor. Distirbutor signal interface. Injector rail and injectors. I do indeed! Just trying to source 20v turbo inlet manifold, fuel rail, injectors and throttle body. Not sure about the ditributer interferance as I'm going to use a ford EDIS system for the spark. If you want to borrow a stim board give me a shout! Cheers for the offer, but I should be ok as I have access to an Autosim at work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyDave 0 Posted January 1, 2007 I do indeed! Just trying to source 20v turbo inlet manifold, fuel rail, injectors and throttle body. Not sure about the ditributer interferance as I'm going to use a ford EDIS system for the spark. Does the 20v manifold fit the 16v then? And no, you can't have the one off my wifes Golf 20VT :lol: Quite a bit on EDIS interface on Vortex if I remember correctly. Whats Autosim? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted January 1, 2007 Does the 20v manifold fit the 16v then? And no, you can't have the one off my wifes Golf 20VT :lol: :lol: I'm gonna get it modified to fit I think. Quite a bit on EDIS interface on Vortex if I remember correctly. I've read a bit on the MS website, but I'll check out Vortex Whats Autosim? this is an Autosim. Part of the company I work for builds them. Very handy bit of kit! It's kinda like a Stim board on steriods! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted January 2, 2007 Right, started on the build of the Megasquirt today! Only done the power supply for the circuit so far, but here's a piccy.... Oh and he's a piccy of my workshop :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lippy 0 Posted January 3, 2007 nice one monsieur beige - was thinking how you would be getting on this morning...as mine is crappy at starting from cold in these winter morns! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrbeige 0 Posted January 3, 2007 nice one monsieur beige - was thinking how you would be getting on this morning...as mine is crappy at starting from cold in these winter morns! Mines running like a pile of schitt and has been for a while, so really want to get this done. Might have sourced a 20v inlet manifold fuel rail and injectors for £50 as well, just waiting for the bloke to get back to me! Just FPR, coil pack and throttle body to find now!

Lippy 0 Posted January 3, 2007 mmm seems like yours is worse than mine (don't want to diss it too much, it may be listening!). Once on the move its OK - crying out for huuuge brakes and a turbo! keep us posted anyways mate! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyDave 0 Posted January 3, 2007 Whats Autosim? this is an Autosim. Part of the company I work for builds them. Very handy bit of kit! It's kinda like a Stim board on steriods! Nice bit of kit! I did think about doing something in Matlab or Labview but the reward for the effort is minimal, get it on the car and go play. But be careful and find somebody to either drive the car or drive MegaTune, cos trying to do both is pretty tricky, and yes... I've tried (bloody stupid I know!) I'd love to show a picture of my workshop but it's a real tip with bits of Corrado and turbo stuff everywhere..... but hey I guess that's just the sort of stuff you guys and gals are into! :lol: Excellent work by the way, keep going!
