I'm looking for a bit of help.

The time has come for me to start playing with the 911. (3.6 964)

I am looking at fitting throttle bodies which don't concern me.

The injectors also don't concern me.

The ecu side of things I need some help with.

What I want is a system that doesn't rely on a MAF sensor, I want little or nothing in the airflow down the TB's.

So I'm looking at a system that will use a crank position sensor and whatever else is needed to do the job this is the point I don't really know where I am, I'm going to be doing the job myself, except mapping I would like the maps to be done by someone with experience so I get the most out of the car.

What systems are available? Megajolt look cheap can they be used? I want to keep costs down, I don't want the electronic side of the job to exceed 1K really, if it can be done for less great, I imagine one prob I will come across is most of these kits seem aimed at 4 cyl cars with 1 distributor, mine is a 6 cyl with 2 dizzys and 12 plugs.

Anyone with any advice?

Hmmm i know the motec set up and to be honest I really can't justify the cost.

Are Omex good? Never actually heard of them before?

how would you set the distributor/coils up to trigger though? is there an output on the ecu to do this and I assume you would just have to split this off?

Sorry didn't explain myself very well, Old cars had points, obviously mine is pointless, so on a car that you took the points off and put electronic inition on you would put a small control box on, which I imagine is replaced on my car by the engine ecu, so does an aftermarket ecu have an output to trigger the coils?

You know when you don't know the answer to a question and in answering it someone makes you feel like an idiot for not knowing the answer in the first place?

Thanks thats actually a handy looking book.

I did know that ecu's control timing and fuel, my original question if you look up was regarding splitting the signal from ecu to coil/distributor as there are two on my engine, I assume that is the way around the problem?

The main attraction is to lose the poor inlet system, without going down the route of PMO's.

where abouts are you nick, would be good to see an installation even if on a 968 just to see how it all goes together.
