What did you do in the garage yesterday?

[Pupp]

Epic indeed - always wanted to turbo this but never did:





Always liked those 4 valve Suzuki engines even if the opposition, mate had a Katana 11 that ended up at about 1400cc with mahoosive Amal (yes really) flatsides on it....used to wheelie off tickover, everywhere every gear

Oh dear, having another moment,,,,

I know, people don't even notice now.

Fixed both air vents which direct air on to your feet as they had fallen apart. She was complaining of a cold draft. Nice easy fix for a change.
Finally got around to modifying the boot release button so now no need to switch the ignition on every time. Live feed from the ignition switch sorted it. Happy days.

Just be aware that anyone can open the boot without the ignition on when the car is parked IF they knew what they were doing!

Agreed, I push the button on my key fob

Yes, they can either (a) cut through the hood and remove the targa panel or (b) with the car locked, roof down and windows up they will need very, very long arms. I've tried and cannot get near the button. But it does away with all the hassle of unlocking the car and putting the key in the ignition every time she wants something else from the boot....

HF solutions does a neat kit with a reprogrammed fob with a boot release button.

Power distrubution module in place , no more relays and fuses for engine control , starter motor etc

[phazed]

Sounds like a neat idea.

Got a linky for the unit?

This looks like a big step forward, very interesting indeed.

Does it work as a stand alone option for us all, or only in conjunction with a MoTeC ECU?

[Hoofa]

It can work stand alone but will require an input to condition a output , like the fans it will need to know when to operate, you can then program to come on a certain points and stay on for a preset time after the ignition is turned off , or the ecu can transmit over the can bus information from the ecu,

The motec supports canbus protocol so hard wired inputs are not needed from the ecu, not sure if canems ecu supports can bus, the motec is more motorsport ecu

Here is another version made by another company for your reading , however this is standalone and offers no ecu integration

Not in a garage but out in the boonies - established pretty conclusively with some logging and map tweaking that I am now officially out of fuel flow headroom

Good she's using it but bad it's upgrade time Gary ... The joys of making power

[Pupp]

It's fine Simon; just surprised it's taken as long as it has to get to the limits of the OEM pump and plumbing. Was expecting to have to sort this well before now!
