static,get your no1 cyl at TDC & check the marks on the wheel.-Just to see if it's been changed from factory setting.


That's EXACTLY what I wanted to hear. Saves buying the timing light while also letting me know it's happy to drive to SRR and be thrashed for a bit.

Thanks!

Howdy. You can tweak the fuelling at idle by popping out the plastic plug on the MAF sensor (if its the flappy door bosch clone ) and adjust the screw underneath.

The SAFC will make a difference as it adjusts the sensor info in conjunction with the tccs mapping.
Better solution is to bugger off the tccs and get a Hydra Nemesis or similar ecu that is standalone and programmable....which funnily enough is my next step.


Must admit I do like the look of the Hydra EMS. If I were into MR2's I would definitely try one.

Iirc, I read somewhere that Hydra already made an ecu package with windows software & connector lead (home mapping yippee!) for several manuf/models & were planning on adding to the range.

How about a wide band lamba sensor as well.

Um, I think I have a different setup to the one you've described. The plug doesn't seem to have a screw beneath it.

Does the Hydra ecu for the MRT feature home mapping? That'd be cool. I'd love to learn a bit about mapping - and I learn best by doing!

Yeah its a stand alone, but obviously you would need to be very careful.

Agreed Don't recomend the,'Lets see what happens if I turn this up a bit..' approach.
