Default Small turbo to large turbo conversions

Which companies make these in UK? I'm asking because I'm still trying to find the T25 escort dissy connector (camshaft position sensor) and I tought I could ask from some company if they have any.

Yes I got the T25 "dissy", but I don't have the connector for it.

Surely if you are converting to big turbo and using a cam sensor you do not need to connect the t25 'dissy',this only needs to be left in place to drive the oil pump??

as robbie has pointed out, if your using a cam shaft (phase sensor) trigger this plug is irrelavant.

I have T35 escort and aftermarket ecu. I am now going to use sequential injection so I need camshaft position and I tought it could be the easiest way to use the T25 escorts camshaft position sensor. I just asked at the first post who make these conversions so that I could ask them from any left over T25 connectors.

Right, there seems to be some confusing, in the UK, that sensor and the one you have pictured, is not actually called a camshaft sensor, its called a PHASE sensor, i think people are getting confused as there thinking your going to be fitting a CAMSHAFT sensor which actually goes on the camcover and uses a totally different plug fitting.

If you wish to retain your orginal phase sensor then yes you will need to find an old plug to re-use.

Hope this clears things up for people

Okay So be it, but the phase sensor does give the ecu camshaft position information. Anyway, I need a connector for that sensor. I didn't know what to call it since it is different from the old T35/sierra cosworth dissy. Since it has hall-sensor and only one trigger compared to the old ones inductive sensor and 2 trigger points.

I believe yrkesman is correct generally this item is known as a Cam sensor, only as it isnt placed on the cam, it is labelled as a phase sensor, though still often refered to by technicians as a cam sensor, as thats what it does


What he is after Ryan, incase you can source one is the loom plug which mates onto the plug in the pic .... I think...
