Tbi n/a to mpfi n/a

[raccoon]

Would it be hard to swap the MPFI intake into a TBI car?

the last daytona Ive bought is in drivable condition besides a headgasket, so im going to fix it and drive it for a while.

anyone have the parts from a mexican car for sale?

wiring/ecu would need to be changed over to turbo harness/ecu, and of course intake/throttle body/throttle cable. I think that's it.

basically a turbo conversion without the turbo. Use the turbo injectors, wiring, computer. put on zener diode on the computer so it never sees WOT

[raccoon]

what about those flex fuel spirits? that ECU would be perfect i would imagine. hummm flex fuel 5 speed exist?

Or redo the cal, ;)

Good luck finding one, :o

[raccoon]

hey people are selling the injectors from em all the time, they just need to grab a few more bits.

I was told the mexico cars have mfi.
i ben always wanted to do a either 2.5 dohc hybird hi compression 93 octane omni!

Automatic only

I'm sure someone on here could make your a good cal for that. That seems like the thing to do nowadays.

That would be real cool. Maybe shave the head a bit to bump compression? :thumb:

[bakes]

Put a t1 intake ,injectors wiring harnes , fuel pump and get Rob to burn you a cal.

[jl93sundance]

yeah the cal wouldn't be that hard i'd imagine...just have everything scaled for no boost.

correct

[Skligmund]

Do it with megasquirt! :D

Couldn't you just use a turbo cal and since the map sensor isn't seeing boost it isn't going to dump in the extra fuel? Or am I just completely wrong?

[bakes]

I was think the same thing , but with a new cal you could tweak up the timing and fuel curves .

that is correct but the turbo calibration is set up to be anticipating boost right after the 0 vac point so things arent going to be as aggressive as on a regular n/a car.

plus the map sensor range is 0-5v. now if you are using a 2 bar turbo map, you are only using the 0-2.5V range so your sensor resolution is cut in half... ie, the setup wont be as accurate.

now, take a turbo ecu, scale all the map tables for a 1 bar map, tweak the curves to be more aggressive and youd have something pretty decent.

I forgot MPtuner can make 1bar map changes now.

So basically it will work but it just wont be using all it's potential?

[Aries_Turbo]

more or less.

it will run.
