Well, for over 12 years nobody could do anything with the mystical EEC IV, even though ive had the kit and wanted to try for 7 of them.

Escos is T28, same footprint as the T34 mate.

No idea, not a consideration at this stage, when bolting the turbo on at his own cost, Will was instructed to fit one we KNOW will work and i can get a good estimate of horsepower on without having tom use a dyno. It made sense not to fook about confusing issues when we were so far in the dark with the management capabilies as MAF throws in its own complexities over speed density.

Rick.
Id say at a guess it will do around 0.25ms as std.
A high impedance 55lb PH injector on a YB runs about 1ms at idle, so no problems at all.

Hard to say what we will market the software at, as the infuriating thing is, once we release it ever tw@ will copy it.

To give you an idea though, here is what you will need on your T28 EsCos.

Parts list:
55lb injectors. £300
Cooler plugs. £50
Uprated pump. £150.
Chip will definately unlikely be anymore than £500.

Then you need a:
T34.48 with -34 fitted. (We dont sell the turbo )
LT 4x4 manifold (We dont sell)

Shouldnt be too bad compared to fitting a downgrade from a sierra as you dont have to buy the:
Loom
Ecu
Sensors
HT leads
Coil etc
Distributor... (Why fit a distcap back on your great engine?)
Plenum & throttle body Etc

And you are of course gaining closed loop and wasted spark as standard, not to mention adaptive fuelling and spark control.
