MAIN PAGE
I have an '88 Volkswagen Scirocco
My goals
- To have control over engine management
- Make car reliable (near stock levels?)
- Learn about what makes all these variables work together
- NOT TO BLOW UP THE MOTOR
Car Specs
- Suspension
- Eibach Sportline Springs
- Tokico Shocks and Struts (for now)
- Poly bushings
- Engine
- ABA 2.0l 4 cylinder motor (From OBDI Jetta or Golf)
- PL 16v head (From 1.8l 16v Scirocco)
- Thottlebody with TPS (From automatic Corrado - bolts on)
- Turbo T3 .60/.48 (From ~'84 Ford Thunderbird)
- Gillis boost controller (Manual screw type)
- Intercooler
- Fuel Injection from G60 Corrado (CURRENTLY)
- 48# high z injectors (correct if wrong - high z meaning constant voltage to open is what I am assuming)
- Transmission
- Stock time-bomb
VEMS SETUP
I am going with v3.3 assembled. Here is the current plans, which are subject to many, many changes.
Planned components
- Sensors
- Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
- GM #25036751
- Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor (MAP)
- 2.5 bar (on board ECM)
- 1 Wideband oxygen sensor (WB02)
- Bosch LSU4
- 1 knock sensor (engine can accept 2, so perhaps I will eventually use 2)
- Exhaust Gas Temperature sensor (EGT)
- K Type
- Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)
- From automatic Corrado
- Fuel Pressure Sender
- Probably the one at the VEMS webstore
- Boost Controller
- Also through the VEMS webstore
- Intake Air Temperature (IAT)
Ignition and Injection Setup
- Crank trigger from ABA code motor - I won't be using a Hall
- VR std 60-2 VAG wheel on ABA crank. Those using different blocks may have to use external setups. See MembersPage/DerrickScirocco
- Part # 021 907 319 B
- VR std 60-2 VAG wheel on ABA crank. Those using different blocks may have to use external setups. See MembersPage/DerrickScirocco
- Wasted Spark Ignition
- 4 output coilpack from 99 2.0 8v VW - new beetle for sure, AEG engine code (this way I can use my stock plug wires)
- Part # 032 905 106 B
- 4 output coilpack from 99 2.0 8v VW - new beetle for sure, AEG engine code (this way I can use my stock plug wires)
- Sequential Fuel Injection (apparently it's an easy change toggling batch -> sequential, as long as you have the injectors wired separately)
CURRENT STATUS
I am looking for a good post AREF mod config for the wideband oxygen sensor

MembersPage/PhatBob - Hi, we're loving that tooth generator php app! One of the guys found: http://www.starshadow.com/~koabi/carstuff/VEMS/Information%20to%20setup%20your%20VEMSv3.htm on your site, so that it doesn't cover the same ground as:
http://www.vems.hu/wiki/index.php?page=MembersPage%2FPhatBob%2FUserGuide
Do you want to work together on incorporating the texts together and developing a guide? I like the CD idea, and am currently working on one for the Round wideband.
PhatBob: GrmRacer ( MembersPage/GrmRacer ) actually kindly did the installation document. You should talk to him about combining the guides - sounds like it could end up being a good community resource.
