DIY fuel controller

Post by questionable »

Hi all.

I'm Almost 100% though the design stage of my latest fuel controller. Prices should be about $95 NZD for the regulator and around $150 NZD for the hand controller. This will control fuel only, ignition will come later maybe.
Its a very simple, solid and unique design. Full assembly/installation instructions will be provided and the average home DIYer should be more than capable of using this kit to its full potential.

Names are still being considered, but we have basically settled on BroTec.

I'll get pics up shortly. If your interested, give me a yell and i'll put you down for a trial kit.

regards,
Nathan.

If I didn't have a haltech, I would go for it, but I prefer the Haltech, maybe you should have called it SazTec ;)

I would be in interesting in the photo's though

would definitly be interested! i'm looking at going for MPI as part of the next stage of development for the Lancer, main problem being i don't want to fork out for an aftermarket computer but this sounds like it could do the trick????

whats the deal with programming it? is that laptop styles? and would a dyno be needed? forgive me for the stupid? questions, i don't know too much about fuel programming, just keen as to get into it.

cheers

The world is full of people who knock good ideas.
I bet the person who came up with Microtech and Haltech copped some crap.

Have you all heard of Megasquirt?

www.megasquirt.info/

This is an EFI kit, which has been available for some time. It is sold in kit form, for about $100. Controls fuel and ignition. My neighbour has this efi computer in his Celica, seems very reliable. There might be some good info available on this site.

nar this guys seems like he is tellin the truth at the momet im lookig at selling some fuel/air ratio kits myself
This unit is a huge revolution in DIY automotive performance. It gives you the power to completely tune the air/fuel ratio throughout the entire load range, at 128 load points, providing incredible mapping resolution and brilliant drivability. It uses the Handheld Digital Controller ? KC5386, so there is no need for a laptop, and it supports both static and real-time mapping. It can be used on 0-5V and 0-12V signals, so it is compatible with all voltage output airflow meters and MAP sensors. It can also be set to work with 0-1V signals, allowing modification of EGO sensor signals. This unit has been extensively tested on a wide range of cars including Subaru Impreza WRX and STi, Nissan 200SX, BMW 735i, Lexus LS400, and Nissan Maxima. Kit supplied with PCB, machined case, and all electronic components
what i buy is basic componets and then i put them all together and box them in custom (heat prof as the standerd ones can melt if kept in the engein bay) houseings and there you have it a cheap air/fuel raito chager cheap as chips

Im not knocking a good idea. I just doubt he even had an idea.

How fast would it be? Faster than my friends type R integra?

nomis: wouldn't mind knowing a bit more about it, like is it a standalone to control your injectors or is it just to adjust the computers stock settings, like a piggyback type computer?

what i need is something that can take inputs from (i'm guessing this but it makes sense?) the dizzy (and whatever else it needs to) and control 4 injectors, whereas before my computer only controlled 2. is this possible or would i need a full aftermarket computer for this?

questionable: if you're serious then show us some pics.............

cheers
