fuel management

[acclaim200hp]

what type is best to go with ; electronic or manual ?
for my supercharged acclaim project

[mopar3.0]

megasquirt ecu.

and from what ive been told its one of the easy cars to be installed on.

[acclaim200hp]

any particular model i should be looking at ?

[mopar3.0]

just as well to the newest one, v3,
m90 daytona had one he claims he has it running,
my buddy builds em and he said our dizzy is pefrect for megasquirt
pretty simlar to the colt we just got running, 2.4 L turbo

Vortech Engineering: Viewing product: Super Fuel Management Unit

so this type isnt worth my while ?

[Shadow24V]

that looks more like a RRFPR to me. the Megasquirt is a full standalone ECU capable of fuel AND spark control (although with a dizzy, no spark control needed). and for ~300 its a steal. not to mention it is open source, and can do all sorts of things, NOS switches, etc. IMHO it is the way to go, i have one for my 24v swap and will be running the phord EDIS ignition with it.

id recommend the v3 board with the MS-II CPU, this will give you ample tuning points and features.

thanks for the help

[mopar3.0]

a 2.2 will also do the job fine

I have a MS 3.0 V1 and I will be installing it on my '89 3.0 soon. The install should be very simple with our optical dizzy once the A604 is replaced with an A543. The only screwy part is idle control - it can either be very complex or a simple high idle switch. Read : MegaManual Index

all my buddies arnt using any type of idle control and no problems
buy i was told the other day that theres a vw ones that only works off vacume no electrical what so ever, maby worth a try, but i think theres a 2 wire ford one that just leakes vacume to control idle

[87turbodance]

I had my old 2.2 turbo 2 running with MS 2.2. I just used the idls screw on the throttle body to set the idle. I found, though, that in the winter the car would idle at like 300 rpm when cold and in the summer it would idle at like 700 rpm when cold

remember we dont all have buddies like mopar3.0 does so you have to figure out if you want to deal with MS on your own basically :P

[Boogieman142]

the vortech super fmu is controlling fuel pressure, thats the one i am using, no blower yet but i have eliminated the stock one and thats all i use.

[mopar3.0]

i found when not using my stock regulator it was too hard to get the car started because it wouldent hold fule pressure in the lines and would make the car hard to start

[DustyR/T]

same problem...but when you prime it twice before the initial start, it starts quicker.
