Short description of the project I'm working on.
I'm getting ready to order soon.
Thanks for comments and suggestions
- 1988 Alfa Romeo 75/Milano
- Alfa Romeo 164 v6 engine
- 3.0 60 degree even fire V6.
- Two valves per cylinder overhead cam.
- Motronic system stock
- Stock 60-2 crankwheel VR-trigger
- cam trigger available ?
- intake system replaced with dual plenum system.
Target features:
- 2 EGT (Not installed initially)
- WB02
- Coil on Plug (6) VAG active types
- what is the exact type ? Do you know for sure it needs less than 10mA input current on the logic signal input ?
- I'd definitely choose wasted spark coils. 3x higher spark energy possible, so even after 10% lost (due to wasted spark), you end up with a much more durable system that is easier to get life into and harder to kill.
- The VAG COPs are problematic (input, max output spark energy and reliability-wise), even if they are perfect mechanical fit for your cylinder head. VAG cops might be appealing with their low purchase price, but most pays a higher price learning that wasted-spark is better (except maybe for the 5cyl engines).
- High Z injectors
- Offboard MAP sensor
- would you choose onboard if we had 115kPa sensor option ? (we do have the 115kPa sensors, and the small daughter adapter-PCB ready soon).
- The advantage of onboard MAP is +1 analog input.
- Crank Sensor VR
- Cam Sensor VR (audi trigger)
Assembled v3.3 controller
- PowerFlyback yes
- primary_trigger VR
- mounting-style screws
- MAP connection offboard(electronic)
- LCD and PS2 yes
- Knock and EGT yes
- ignition driver 2+6
- 1-wire interface no
- secondary_trigger auditrigger
VEMS parts to be ordered with control
- 2 x K-thermocouple connector
- 1 x Assembled v3.3 controller
- 1 x Sealed sensor connector
- 1 x Econoseal18-harness
- 1 x Econoseal36-harness
- 10 x Injector connector 2pin
- 1 x Wideband O2 sensor
- 1 x Wideband connector
- 1 x LCD4x20
- 1 x MAT sensor
- 3 x Injector connector 3pin
