I am in the process of swapping engines in my old BMW. It had a carbed NA engine and gets an injected turbo engine.
I want to use an aftermarket stand alone engine management on it. (original ECU not available) But i'm a noob regarding this topic so i would really appreciate your advice.
First some basic info. The engine has:
- 2x Bosch anti-detonation sensor
- a TPS that only (micro)switches idle controlcircuit on/off
- idle speed valve
- 1x Bosch cold start injector
- 6x Bosch 0 180 150 200 injectors
- TDC sensor on the front pulley, pulley has one trigger-thingy on it.
- cam driven dizzy (no advance mechanics in it.)
- engine coolant temp sensor.
- oil temp sensor in the sump
- oilpressure sensor
- flapper airflow meter ( which i prefer not to use) (can i use a MAP sensor?)
- 1 coil + powerstage.
Which engine management do i need to use all input of these sensors?
Megasquirt + megaspark? Which versions? Can MS&S be bought in assembled form or do i need to solder a kit together? Does it come with tuning software?
i want to install:
- a wideband lambda sensor ( which brand/type? can all management systems manage all lambda input signals?)- a boost control solenoid. ( can i use one from a particular type vehicle?)- a fuelpump able to deliver 400HP worth of fuel (@3bar) (which brand/type?)
What brands and types of stuf are 'best-buys' for my project?
Any suggestions where to buy?
Thanks in advance
