affordable Fuel injection

That's all GM parts: Sensors, TB, harness and computer.

some guy on ebay sells exact copies of that kit for $300. Not very tunable, though.
 
I just emailed them about using there TBI kit for my 200 I6 that will be turbocharged/ fuel injection if I can afford it. they emailed me back, that there all built to your engine size/ cam specs and such so they could do a kit for a 200 with no problem, and for the turbo they would add an external piggy back system to control the timing and fueling, is this going to be enough tunability for turbocharging?

If it is just speed density and you can't change the values yourself with a laptop....

....then I highly, highly, highly doubt it.

they said that I would be able to change fuelling and timing, but that's all they said

.....but by how much, and where in the RPM range?

Good quality fuel injection systems run off of a lot of tables of data and logarhythms to determine how much fuel and spark is needed. You can see what is happening when the laptop is plugged in.

A system that is too simple won't have enough adjustability and isn't worth the couple of bucks you save over a system that is known to work.

what system should I be looking for? a FAST controller . the guy just seemed to throw that out there, like he wasn't shure about the systems compatibility with forced induction They sell that piggy back box extra and have the product details on it, in there site, I'll check to see what it's capabilities are. I know it was a very quick reply. I sent the Email at 10:30 PM and when I checked my Email at 6:30 the next morning, I had the reply.
 
It really seems like megasquirt is the way to go. It is the most tuneable system I have seen yet and it doesn't require an electrical engineering degree to operate. and you can order bulk wiring and make your own harness or order up a pre soldered one. I'm currently working on hooking one of these up to my '66 stang. The problem I am havin is that I'm not using a GM TB. my IAC runs on 2 wires instead of 4... time to change it out!
 
I'm making one for my jeep. so far I have $18.00 cdn into and that is for the GM TB and the sending unit and fuel pump :eek: Going to order all of the stuff for the the megasquirt this week sometime
 
I am going to be using a MS on my setup so far...

35# injectors $75
welding rod $20

all I have in it right now. I am planning on just harvesting some wiring/plugs from the JY for this motor. later on I will prob break down and do a new harness once I get things sorted out and mounted.

I have a TB off a 3.8L buick and 36-1 wheel and coil packs off a tarus.
 
they don't accually sell them through the site anymore (they used to do group buys only)

is a good place for MS stuff. if you know someone that can assemble it not a bad deal (my buddy is an electrical tech and is running one on his 305 tpi)

the nice thing about using JY wiring is that you can keep GM color coding and save $$$ bigtime on connectors and bulk wire.

a neat thing a couple 2.3L guys have done is gut a factory ECU and build their MS inside that so it plugs into a factory harness.
 
the price is right, guess that's what I'm gonna do. I'v never done any of this kind of electrical work but my dad has, he can probably help me thru it.
 
The kit from glenns garage has a box already done for the ms2. and to put hem together shouldn't be to bad. I assume that the diagrams are really easy to follow, but if you are unsure of the soldering it is only about 80 (I think) more to buy it assembled and tested! they do recommend getting a relay controller it helps protect the computer. I think worth the extra 60 bucks!

that's still cheap. I'm gonna get it assembled and with a relay controller. compleatly worth it considering the cheap piggy back brain box Affordable wanted to sell me was $379. just checked it's $400 for MS2 3.0 assembled. 150 for the assembly, still not bad and still worth it.
 
nice i'm going to oder mine this week un-assemble and build it over the next couple of months :D I have done this since college 8) I just like the fact that you can do it all yourself! and it is totally programable and you cam do it yourself. I have some friends with mustage that take their chips to speed shops to have the re-programed and it cost them 250-400 bucks to get it done :shock:
 
I just got back from Affordable Fuel injection. the SMT6 is a perfect power part. I looked it up and it has adjustability in all the nessasary points for turbocharging, but being a piggy back system, it has to give the ECU false readings and trick it, to get what is needed. MSII seems much better. Does a TBI use injectors in the head/ intake log, or are the injectors in the throttle bodie? I'm planning on using a Tempo/ Escort Throttle body. would I need a return fuel line, and if so could I route it to a T just b4 the fuel pump?
