Here we go. Someone has turboed an A series with EFI using a Haltech ECU.

The original post is here

http://www.minimania.com/web/threadid/6 ... thread.cfm

It uses a Civic TB and two injectors.

Neeeeeeed more pics... Lots more pics !

Its a wet-manifold setup, so not 100% optimised, but damn near it ...
550cc injectors.. so a theoretical maximum of about 200Hp .... Nice....

I can see a certain 998 Turbo breaking 130Hp with one of these setups !

If its Big Al, then this guy has been a shit-stirrer for years.... but he usually backs it up with facts....

I'd be up for a setup like that.... I'll have to go talk to Adaptronic again about that ECU .....

Cheers
J

Yea, got home (just)

Still no idea what the problem is.... it got to my front yard, and thats where it stayed...... :evil:

Will push it into the garage tomorrow night and find out .......

start with Inlet manifold and work from there (i have a suspicion that the inlet gasket has blown out......)

heres hoping its not a major thing......

I've played with this ECU on his laptop while we were driving around in traffic, it's pretty cool 8) Especially when people see you with a laptop in a mini changing fuel and advance curves :lol:

Easy enough to use ?

I'm a real dinosaur when it comes to EFI ......

but hell, I'm an IT manager, I'm sure i can work it out..... just need to outsource the actual pc work to India .......

So its good ?
Worth the $$$ ?

Yea, i've never really played around with one before, you'd have to talk to chris about it, but for the short time i used it, it wasn't to hard to get the hang off. He got it professionally dynotuned, which i'm sure you would want to do if you went that way.

I reckon it's worth it for the pub factor alone :mrgreen:

I would trust no mini to india :lol:

What's one of these worth?
