Default 2.1 questions

Im now satisfied my cars not rotten in fact it seems pretty solid, however...

i would like to put a 2.1 init but what changes to the managment do i have to make? ive thought of converting it to efi and then adding a chip to cope as i know many people have done this but what chip?

do i have to make any changes or can u run a 2.1 on mfi? and the car currently has a ahmed bayjoo chip advice would be much appreciated as there are so many managment choices i need somewhere to start!

i think a lot will depend on how much boost your running as the mfi is very perimitive. To be honest efi would be better

Default efi

yeah i think efi is the way togo, but am i right in thinking i want the wiring loom from a 90 spec xr3 efi and an ofab ecu, but would the ecu come from the xr3 or from a fezzie turbo? ive also heard that you can use the engine bay part of the fezzie turbo loom but its better to use xr3 loom...

again advice is much appreciated!

dont quotye me on this but to run efi your best getting the whole lot from a fezzie turbo. you are going to need the crank sensor etc. If u know where there is a fezzie that is gettin broken i would grab loom, ecu and crank ensor, probs your best bet. car loom is just the usual escort one i believe
