I thought that thread dealt with the EGR functionality - does it also address the evap purge valve clicking issue? I thought that had to be disabled in the peripheries even with a MAP sensor and I don't see directions to disable in that thread either.Quote:

Just finished reading this whole thread and WHEW my brain hurts :) Awesome work done by everyone involved with getting this project going! I currently have an AEM EMS Ver.2 sitting in its box on a shelf and was planning on using it when all the other mechanical issues/upgrades/fixes are done on my car, but now......I'm wondering if that's the best option. Sounds like using a '98 ECU and EVOScan is a lot easier to deal with for a mediocre tuner like myself, compared to an AEM. I like the descriptions of stock driveability with the 98 ECU. Not sure an AEM will give me that, and remain stable over long periods of time without constant tune tweaking. Not to mention the cost of having an expert like Ray P install and tune an AEM. That alone will cost me more than a full 98 ecu/evoscan/adapter cable/tactrix cable setup will cost. Not real enthusiastic to run a MAF again, I've had a MAFT Pro installed for a few years, running in speed density, and all the IC piping is set up for that. Maybe I'll keep the MAFT Pro running in speed density, zero out the afr correction tables, and feed the karman freq. output into the 98 ecu. How well does the Chrome ROM deal with fixed intake temp and baro values that the MAFT devices send to the ECU?
Actually there may be a work around for that... Sorta a plug in baro and temp sensor... I am working on that.Quote:

All three use the same driver circuit. AND OBVIOUSLY the fuel pressure solenoid is beefier. And the fuel pressure solenoid is the same as the EGR (no I didn't test that one) and available at Advance Auto for about $50. I am guessing that as long as you stay below 400 mA your good for whatever you choose to use as the wastegate solenoid.
Anyone running PTE/Lucas 550cc injectors and have good scaling and latency values?
Actually, would it be good to get a table together similar to the Injector Scaling and Latency link for known injectors that people have?
A bit back i posted some in the ballpark.Quote:

No lie, I had a customer try to run his car with stock injectors and the 660 scaling. Amazingly it start, ran and drove just fine. Didn't accelerate for shit but I was amazed at how well the car ran.
Thanks, I was able to find it.Quote:
