Well my fuel injection/Megasquirt conversion is now fitted and it works

Couple of fuel leaks needed sorting and 1 connector had decided to didn't like its mate but once these were sorted it started first time.

Need to get it out on the road now to autotune it.

I managed to put a star crack in the nose cone when re-fitting it one day. I thought the best way to hide/repair it would be to cut it out and put a piece of grill behind.

Mmmmmmmm, nice

Clive mate, that is up to your usual BLING porn standard.

Very smart. As the other guy said - too pornographic for an oily engine!

Car is now running OK with very little tweaking.

Stumbles slightly when accelerating from fully closed throttle but I can cope with that.

Not overheating and doesn't appear to be running rich.

If anyone going to Newark cares to cast an expert eye over my Megasquirt settings it will be greatly appreciated

Details of conversion for those who have expressed an interest.


RPI Boxer manifold drilled and bungs fitted for 8 injectors.
4 Rover 25 throttle bodies. (45mm)
Sleeves made and fitted in throttle bodies to match manifold inlets
Megasquirt II v3
Bosch 0280155712 injectors from Vauxhall Omega. (213cc/min)
Billet fuel rail from Ross Machine Racing



Copper balance tubing seen in the pics has now been replaced with a spare length of billet fuel rail.

I will post some more piccies later.
