M70 V12 powered midengine car. 12 separate standing throttle bodies from Suzuki GSXR 750 -98.

Cams not decided yet but probably Dr Shrick 265. Heads ported. Flywheel button type with Tilton 2 disc clutch. 360 rotating extraktor. Renault UN1 gearbox.M70 has firing order 1-7-5-11-3-9-6-12-2-8-4-10 and is firing 2 cyl simultaneously.

My engine has originally two cranksensors 60 degrees apart (in perfect sync: one is used). Triggerwheel is 60-2 on crankshaft


Triggerwheels VR,HALL


V12 ignout 1 VEMS ECU is perfectly enough for this V12

2 cyl fire simultaneously. 6 ignouts for 12 ignition transformers (or 6*2 wasted spark) would be easy for passive coils, but active coils was requested:

the logiclevel i259 output can drive 2 coils/output with logiclevel inputs

Of course 4 stepper + 8 logiclevel (0 IGBT) would be an option (ign dualout is correct for this setup => each cyl fires only once / camrot => engine is like two I6 engines ) but there is a better option to drive 2 active COPs / output (even the nasty type COPs); with more power outputs left for extras or spare:

total 2*6=12 active COPs can be serviced without igndualout configuration.


WBO2 : Dual LSU4.9 (ordered one, adding 2nd for no extra charge; using flying loom connector for extra inputs anyway)

What do I win by using two LSU4.9?

Normally EC18 has more analog inputs (and only 1 WBO2).

In general it is a good idea to have a good match for the engine (eg dual WBO2 for a V12, 2 EGT inputs, and properly selected secondary trigger), even if just one is planned to be used initially.
