Still, there is enough in the thread for the OP to get a little ahead of where he is. I think that he needs to learn more about what he has, for instance, what is the "unknown ECU"? Based on his comments, he might not even recognize a decent ECU if he had one. Most of the advice he's getting about EMS is way beyond his current state of knowledge, with the questions about injectors and the MSD BTM and "whats the degree of timing you have to set for around 11-12lbs of boost".
Yeah, I've decided a proper turbo set up using my current engine is above my comprehension and/or budget for the time being. I've decided its more in my skill range to just rebuild the motor, head work, flat tops, a good cam, and still tossing around the idea of triples.. still not sure yet sorry for not replying for awhile.. ive been busy the past few weeks I need to pull my motor for the winter to start on it, thanks for all the information you all gave me. wasn't the outcome I was expecting on my part, but I know for right now its just a pipe dream.. now to start gathering all my needed parts for the rebuild.

whats the degree of timing you have to set for around 11-12lbs of boost anyways?
-
thats what it was saying on summits web page atleast, all the thinking and reading has made me lose sleep, but its all for a good cause lmao.. back to reading

My 77, stock, 15x8 -10 offset wheels, I love her
-
yes thats it, not saying its the best of ways to go, but talking in theory, would this suffice for the retard of timing when a turbo is put on? or does it need to be more than the max 15 degrees that box will allow? or am i missing something in my logic?
-
Oh ok, my dad uses an MSD btm box on his turbo coupe T-bird, and he was pondering if that would work, i think the max retard timing setting on it is 15 degrees..

I just got my l28e turbo running good. No mega squirt yet..
how is this?
-
wow, after reading megasquirt FAQs and manuals online at diytune.com I feel dumb, I want to do this myself to say i did it.. but some of the stuff is going over my head.. for megasquirt do you NEED an 02 sensor? and as far as my stock distrib. I replace that with a turbo one to set up for ignition control with MS? and as far as ignition control with MS goes, does that in a way take place of an MSD box for timing control? I need to step back and look at this from a different angle to comprehend some properties of a Megasquirt install
-
Ok awesome, so the 83 turbo injectors, is that something i will use or are the stock ones useable with a MS set up?

Hey everyone. ive been reading and trying to find some posts on how to turbo a motor with the N42 head, and i think ive been misled on some things and would like someone with experience to help me get my ducks in a row.. first off, I have a 1977 280Z, Bone stock motor, 4 speed manual, this is my toy, I autocross it but I baby the **** out of it, and ive been contemplating the choices on more power for the courses
.. so I started looking and most people are telling me I NEED an p90 head to even start to turbo this engine. is the N42 head able to stand up to modest boost? 9-11 lbs for a goal.. with a few mods to stock components, is this feasible for an autocross car? or is it necessary to have many turbo ZX parts to fit on this engine? a list of what i have so far is.. : J pipe, 83zx injectors, an unknown ECU and Distrib. a turbo manifold, all this was given to me by the previous owner.. sorry for the loooong message, just wanted to give the most information i can, thanks for any help you can pass along! (I can post pictures of the distrib. and ECU if it helps identify them)

83ZXT complete swap into 280z

hey everyone, Ive been trying to read up alot on my turbo swap and I am fixing to start this weekend. first off, I have basically everything from the old car, disassembled in my garage, im using the 83 harness for ecu and EFI.. is it just a simple remove your old and put in the 83? no wiring in/ splicing into old harness? basically i'm wondering if its just a plug and play for its ECU and connectors. I've typed up as many alternate seach queries i could think of for a similar question but i have not found any that give me that solid assurance of yes you have to, or no its just that simple! lol... I hope for this to be pretty simple, seeing how it will be my first "Swap" in a car, thanks for any help you can provide! ~Jordan.
