Six_Shooter Posted July 13, 2008 Share Posted July 13, 2008 One more question, I plan on having the Megasquirt be my boost controller and getting the GM boost solenoid and the 4 BAR "Map Daddy" MAP sensor add-on for the MS board to help facilitate this (I know MS has a MAP sensor already but its not 4 BAR). Does anyone have any input on MS as a boost controller? I will be having DIYauto pre-assemble the board because god knows I have enough other little things to do on the Z. Are you planning on running between 30 and 45 PSIG boost? If not, I would suggest a lower BAR MAP sensor. 2 BAR is good up to 15 PSIG, 3 BAR up to 30 PSIG. I'm not sure how well the MS handles the higher BAR map sensors, but resolotuion of idle and low RPM cruise vacuum situations will be lower with a higher BAR MAP sensors, due to less electrical range available, provided the voltage range.

proxlamus© Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 i too would recommend a stim board ONLY if you assemble it yourself. i mean you can use it with a pre-assembled unit to see if there are any failures or shorts in the future.. but you dont need it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZXT_bean Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 ok so im am confused. am i able to use my 81 cas on the crank pulley and not use a 82-83 dizzy? i dont mind doing the swap. just kinda curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobythevan Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 The installation sticky has a quoted area from Tony D. that explains what is required to use the 81 CAS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZXT_bean Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 The installation sticky has a quoted area from Tony D. that explains what is required to use the 81 CAS. i have read that. and i am still in the grey area as you will... but as long as it has the possibility of working i will figgure it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZXT_bean Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 You might try talking to Tony directly to see what else he has to say about the 81 cas. that sounds like a good idea. what is his name here on the board? well i ordered everything today!!! megasquirt II w/pcb3, stimulator, harness, tuning cable, iat & clt sensors. so now i have get a base map setup, and everything configured correctly. im hoping i can use the 81 cas. any tips and tricks will help!!
