Im currently about to build a new burnout car and will be using a 3.8l ecotec out of a vt commodore into an 85 Nissan bluebird wagon. My plan is to build this as an alternative car while I rebuild my Toyota soarer. Id like to have this car tuned on methanol, for help to keep the engine cool but also for a bit of extra power. Id like to be able to tune the car trackside if need be, whether its to add a bit of fuel or a bit of timing. Im trying to figure out what the best way to do so will be. What will I require. I would prefer to just be able to plug a cable in to the car, and my laptop instead of removing the memcal. Id also like to be able to use it to log the burnout to see how the engine is performing and make any changes necessary. Im happy to take the car to get the tunes done the first time and the just change them as I require. I do have access to a dyno at our local tafe aswell, which one of the tafe teachers has actually got experience in tuning efi vehicles.
Has anyone on here played around with an ecotec on methanol before? What injectors should I be looking at getting or will the factory ones be okay. I already know that I will need to flush the entire fuel system each time the car is run on methanol. Which brings me to another question. Can I have 2 tunes saved on my laptop that can be switched in the car, one tune for the methanol and one for the petrol.
Thank you in advance to anyone able to help out.
