so VL400 whens it getting added to $12P ;) hahahaha
There is a spare counter input so it might be possible to use that, will depend on the PWM output freq. Or could make the PWM output in to a 0-5V signal and read that instead. One way to have it work would be to change everything AFR to lambda, then use a correction table or scalar for the PWM signal so it can work out the stoich AFR which gets applied to all lamba values. Lots to change!

Sounds exciting E85 is the future in my opinion. Especially with performance engine's and conversions requiring emissions testing.

well we're ready to go for WSID this sunday, spare box is in and tested ok on the jack stands! welded some new bump stops into the rear to stop the tailshaft hitting the floor before the diff hits the bump stops, and dropped the wastegate spring from ~17psi to less hehehe

i'm not really sure what its going to be cause the 17psi spring is supposed to be 14psi so the 10 that I have in there is likely to be 13psi .... either way this is to drop fuel demand till I can sort out my fuel system upgrades!

either way 13-15 psi (can add a bit more with a screw on the wastegate) should be enough to get close to what I was running before, especially with a hopefully better gearbox and more motor!

11.77 @ 118mph is the target!

now we just need to pray this forecast rain DOESN'T!
