Austarion

well, after a lot of messing around over the past year and a half, i have decided to bite the bullit and go mpi.

heres a few pics of the parts i have put together.

large throttle body


mpi manifold

sensors etc

standard injector on the left and larger injector on the right.

my engine bay now.



my turbo.


if you dont know already, my widebody starion has had a bit of a hard time after being stolen etc.( still not found out who it was :glare: )

the engine has wisco forged pistons, cometic headgasket, ported/polished head, balance shafts removed, fidanza alu fly wheel and act clutch, group A garrett t34(360 thrust bearing, maram shaft, .50 exit housing), cosworth intercooler.

the car is now being treated to; emerald ecu, custom wiring loom(proper job), 4x 720cc injectors, 65mm throttle body.
hoping after this, the car will run sweet and will be reliable???? but who knows???

has any one got a rough idea of what to expect power wise?? looking to run at around 25psi ish

comments are welcome :beer

nice. i like that edis distributorless thing :) what sort of strut brace is that?

hi mate.
that is a grumbly racing one from this forum, he made up a few batches of them.
have a rear brace to match too.

the edis modules are readilly avalible off current fords like the focus etc, and apprently makes things a lot better tuning wise.

cars now at carrera cdh, UK to get the wiring loom/manifold etc fitted :D :D :D

went to the workshop to take a peak of whats happening to my baby.

seems to be goin ok, wiring loom is almost finished, and manifold is already finished and getting bolted up today. :D

sorry about the quality of the pic- crap camera+rubbish light.

Mmmmmmm....shiny.

Not sure the throttle cable is gunna work going sideways like that LOL.

Looks good so far..

Fords are good for other parts too :)

Hi can you whrite how moved the thermostat housing to the top end of the intake manifold?From what car is your Multipoint - Galant 2.0 , Hyundai or other?I am looking for MPI and want to know what car to loking for.And what kind ot distributor is yours?And from what car?Want to collect all of the parts also and aftermarket computer.Thank you for the help.

hi, not 100 % about how to do the thermostat etc.
the manifold is from a 8v mitsubishi galant, evo 5 injectors, ford escort cosworth throttle body, coil pack/ignition is an edis set up from for- all zetecs use them(coil pack, tps, cam sensor).
hope that helps a bit??

I like the "2 or 3 weeks it will be running", followed straight after by "keep the comments coming"

You don't need our encouragement, you're doing it champ!

I wonder whether the Emerald EM is available in Australia, any1?

Those Optima batteries are excellent.

And the blue hoses everywhere look mad.

cheers mate,
still need the comments to keep me goin. had too many let downs in the past :(

its coming together
