RBPE 198 Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 What do you want to know? Most aspects have been covered on the forum so have a look through beforehand then ask away on more specific things! VR6Pete 1 Link to post Share on other sites
wessel429 4 Posted May 28, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Im planning on using a megasquirt v3 as ecu, does anyone have experience with that and will it work with the oem sensors and what settings do i need to use Link to post Share on other sites
RBPE 198 Posted May 28, 2020 Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Why use MSnS? You planning on tuning it yourself afterwards and don't want to use oem ecu? It's NA from stock so no boost controls and the speed density aspects are probably a little different than most are used to on aftermarket stuff on the Motronic (GGDSAS/EFGE).

Madpuggers 2 Posted January 29, 2021 Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Cool build, what inlet and exhaust manifold you end up using? Just curious I'm away to start stock piling parts for a turbo conversion.You managed to get all the wiring harness made up for your ecu pal Link to post Share on other sites

You managed to get all the wiring harness made up for your ecu pal Exhaust manifold is a cheap stainpess one (doubt it is actually stainless, more like cast iron) from races-shop.com The benefit is that its quite short so if i fit the engine in the engine bay, i still have about 5cm of room left.

wessel429 4 Posted January 29, 2021 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2021 Intake manifold is from here https://www.turbo-parts.de/intake-manifold/Short-runner-Intake-Manifold-for-VW-VR6-2-8L-24v-Turbo-MK4-Golf-Jetta-Bora-MK4::920.html Its aluminium, needed some modifications because im using a golf 3 throttle body (cable driven) Ecu wiring is almost done Link to post Share on other sites
