Well, the whole project will cover anything from just running a 7th injector in a TB plate I have designed, to running multi-port throttle bodies using the stock injectors. It will be a process of evolution. Initially I will try and use the MS to take over fuelling duties leaving the stock ECU to run the ignition (accepting that there may be all sorts of issues with incorrect ignition maps coming in to play). I don't think it a viable option on a road car to completely pull the stock ECU as it runs so many other systems in the car. You can follow everything on my site as it happens. That way it saves me writing everything up here in adhoc posts AND on the site - documenting everything and answering emails/post is now a job in itself, and I still have to a day job to do too. Only had about 6 hours sleep in the last 3 days. Still its shows there is some real interest in the project which has to be a good thing.
