As said above, been done before, but its not ideal, much more tunable, simpler and reliable to use programmable management

What capacity is the engine? if you use the injctors and everything else sensor wise off of the cosworth and its 2 litre, then i think it will all work pretty close. But still not as elegant as programmable IMO
