anyone got a link to some good info about the cossie management conversion on the efi turbo?

Ginge !

what convertion a efi turbo to cossie mangment ???

why

Šhatter Box

not worth the light dave if u got efi already

~nomad~

iTrader: (4)

no? seems to me there are a good few cars making good power using it, recko its too much grief then?

Šhatter Box

efi is good for up to 350bhp any thing over that then pectel

Ginge !

thats a little like the fast cars seem to be white and so im respraying mine


EFI managment is decent IF set up right !!!!

the mods for cossie would be to machine the fly wheel to have 4 triggers rather than the 36 to 1 trigger it has and a few new sensors, loads of cash, swop of loom and still relys on the set up

get it live mapped by either kenny@MSD or grove garage who do alex's car as that seems to go well for a girls car

Šhatter Box

as bal says waste off money if u got efi already i seen quite a few frst with cossie mangment and i ask them y they gone that rote when efi is just as good lol and they say there tunner says it better looks like they in safe hands then

Ginge !

well unless they got ofac , but then swop to ofab

btw rudeys car done well on OFAB if i recall

~nomad~

lol, fair play then will stick with the efi. its being built from the ground up and have the parts for both, but efi it is.

Šhatter Box

rudeys 1900 was efi on ofab with pectel baby bored same as me


dave what u doing then zetec?

Ginge !

when it goes wrong remeber it was alex's advice

when it breaks records remeber that i helped to spec the car and a mention in a mag would be nice too

Mr.h.

How and why is OFAB better?
Ive got everything i need to convert over to EFI but my ecu is OFAC?

Nick

Ginge !

ofac map sensors cant read past 15psi

ofab uses a webber 3 bar mapsensor that reads to 30psi

Ginge !

alex think you me should start a rst tuning company and employ stu@fordsport as our idea man

[quote="Mr.h."]How and why is OFAB better?

the later ecu ofac runs a different map sensor not 2.5 or 3 bar as u can with ofab and u cant run what u can on an ofab then a ofac. ofab u can run over an bar with ofac ur cant unless u go and see grove or stu

Mr.h.

Ah i see, so basicly with OFAC like i have im limted with boost?

How can i get over this then as i dont really wanna have to go buy all the other bits as im skint with xmas on the door step

Nick

Šhatter Box

give him an open cheque book is a ticking time bomb

Ginge !

just buy a oafb ecu and air temp sensor and a map sensor aswell as a slight ecu pin swop and a new multi plug for the ecu


or visit kenny@MSD or grove, but im sure that for over 22psi they would rather a ofab ecu tbh the ecu wont have a boost limit and the fueling would be alittle estimated as such

Ginge !

i ahd a mate talk about him the other day from reading on here his posts a while ago

carbon custom dash, defi, engine swops ect and the next time he seen his car all he fitted was stickers

i did mention if he looked closer he would have seen the flocked dash too

16v zetec in hes cab come to think of it where is now oh and ur 16v zetec sold and got some cossie

Ginge !

mine started as a 16v cabrio,,,,,,,,,, then ended up as a 1.6 steel engine then urban legend on here poped into my work with 4500 quid wavign it about in my face,,,,,,,,,,, i went to the doctors the following day and got a weeks sick note to remove the engine

btw ive still got my cabrio AND ive bought a engine, i ported MY OWN HEAD, non of this cheque book racer bollox and ive timed my own cossie engine

not bad for a former traffic warden

i can't see that it is necessary when using weber management to do things like machining a crank pulley to have 4 lugs? obviously that what they run with on cossies, but that doesn't make it better. surely it's possible to reprogram it to use the 36-1 signal?

and fitting a map sensor with higher range to the ofac would surely be easier than changing the whole management system?

Ginge !

they dont though for the ofac hence why its recomended to change ecu's

same with the cossie management if it was possable then it would be done too



do you honestly belive not 1 tuner/mapper as thought of doing such things in 15 years

i have ofab stuff so will use that. its only a 1.8zvh Alex, just building it to pop in a car i have sat about.

foreigneRS

b19bal it's not impossible. and i don't believe that it hasn't been done by somebody.

just because it's not public knowledge yet, doesn't mean it hasn't happened.

Ginge !

if its been done then we WOULD know about it, if Kenny hasnt done it then it cant be done as hes smarter than gods teacher

foreigneRS

i think that you'll find that fords were sold in other countries in the world , and there's a lot of clever people out there. i reckon it's been done, or if not, there are people that could easily do it.

but if there's a tried and tested route that people want to follow rather than innovate, then good for them

Ginge !

think its about reinventing the wheel to look better when theres alloys already made
