MANY THANKS FOR ANY HELP

 

The dump valve needs to be the recirculating type because if you vent to atmosphere then measured air isn't going into the engine and fuelling problems occur.

 

Correct.

Bob, how are you getting on with your EEC dissasembly mate?

 

hasnt the small turbo unit got a re-circ built on to the side of the compressor housing?

how do you get around not useing this?

 

Yes it has. And i personally recomend you leave it like this.

 

Quite far but some of it is still guess work or unknown. The DCL data stuff's been hard to get my head around. TBH I haven't done much recently as I've got too much other stuff on and I think I might end up using a normally aspirated ecu ('93 Mondeo probably) for my supercharger project as I don't need a map sensor or wastegate control. Also I dislike the 'tacked on' approach Ford took with adding the extra code onto what's basically a normally aspirated ecu's code.

 

STU, i have recently changed my turbo to one of these on my S1 , and i have just plumbed the re-circ valve in as i would a normal d/v.... seems to be workin well, i hope this was how it is supposed to be....

 

You will be fine pal, the issue arises when you use an air mass meter which im presuming you dont have.

BOB, i have invested in teh full pro version of SCT (Im sure you know what i mean) So if i can help at all let me know.

 

Mmm, didn't know SCT covered European spec ecu's. Wouldn't mind seeing it being used

 

They are trying hard for us to support them and are doing quite well so far.

 

wat do u recommend i do ive only just bought the car and its got that setup
