Hi
Since all the 5-pot knowledge seems to be here, I've signed up cap-in-hand!
I recently bought a 7A to "perk up" my 2.6 litre 100kw/200Nm South-African built Microbus here in the UK, which i thought would benefit from another camshaft and more valves!
which left the factory with this in the back:
The engine is a bit of a VW/Audi hybrid as you can see, 2555cc and 10:1 comp plus it's been lpg'd, but my 20v donor engine has no petrol system at all, it was on lpg only...plus I need to find the correct PAS brackets for the 7A or adapt mine as the pump is a 75 bar unit.
Anyway, the Bosch-of-SA Motronic has let me down again (starts but won't rev above 1500rpm before cutting out. I think that the TCI inside the ecu is getting twitchy. Everything swapped for new OEM parts but the problem came back. Grrr!) so it's for the bin and it's time to go Megasquirt sequential with maps for both fuels.
Has anyone got any direct experience of going MS and is there anyone fitting in the NW Surrey area?
I have read up about the Hitachi-to-Bosch injector conversion, but that's about the sum of things so far...
