how did you convert the box to cable is fitting the 1.4 16v same as fitting the 1.2 16v just use the mk1 1.2 16v inlet manifold ect

 

[steve handley]

just fitted a new drivers side door and flushed the lock also flushed the boot.
i did not weld plates on the inside in the end i bonded them in because knowing my look i would get some major destortion and end up having to filler harf the pannel haha.

cheers steve

 

[steve handley]

found another engine 1.2 16v out of a v reg bravo with inlet maniofold throttle body starter aultinator all sensors ect is it same as the mk1 punto can i use all the bits? cheers steve

 

[steve handley]

been to pick up my engine today its a mk1 1.2 16v it has been converted to a turbo with a deconpression plte ect the turbo is a t15 the guy i got it off says to run it at 0.5 bar is this correct also what ecu can i use were do i get one and how much are they cheers steve

 

[randomizered]

I'll say cheapest for ecu is a Megasquirt that you build yourself........I'll await a flaming and others opinions :devil:

 

[steve handley]

wer do i get one and how much are they.
what do you mean when you say build your self cheers steve

Exactly that - you put the ECU circuits together by hand, although you can buy them fully built. There's a sticky thread on Megasquirt which should have everything you need to know.

 

[steve handley]

is there nowere you can get them built up they look abit technical

to be honist im not up on ecus at all can i not just get the normal one remapped as i have no idea how to build a ecu or fit one and looking at the megasquirt section just makes it harder

 

[rallycinq]

The standard one cannot be remapped for your application, no.

If you don't want to to the job yourself then you'll need find a fitting centre for the brand you prefer and have them fit it.

Beware, you will be looking at the thick end of £1500, supplied fitted and mapped.

ok thanks pd the guy i got the engine off had it in a panda https://www.fiatforum.com/panda-classic/157949-my-1242cc-16valve-turbo-panda-story.html
he had it on megasquirt but he sold the ecu b4 he sold the engine :-(
he said theres a guy that builds them on here thats were he got his.
what parts would i need to build one and are they hard to build and fit?
thank you all for your help cheers steve

read the thread in the sticky

read http://www.megamanual.com/index.html

read the links here http://megasquirt.sourceforge.net/

If you don't understand, can't be bothered or don't want to put time and effort it, then it's definatly not for you! I sing MS's praise, but that's becuase i'm interested in it, and it's cheap. If you just want plug and play, it's not for you.....you'll need to save for something else.

Cheers,

Kristian

could you tell me if this will fit and map to a fiat

It will need a few hardware changes as it's set up for edis, but with said mods it will work

extraefi is a good kit builder as well, not like some others you find!

 

[steve handley]

hi there my engine is being rebuilt at the moment ive told him to take out the decomp plate and just build it as a standerd engine.
i would just like to no because it is a mk1 engine i will have to drill a hole for the knock sensor ive been told there is a spare hole from the punto engine mount do i drill all the way through and tap it out ?

 

[steve handley]

hi there just to let you no i have everything i need now so i am going to be putting the 1.2 16v in this weekend the only thing i have not got is the aultinator will the sei one fit on the punto mount why do people have trouble lining it up if you use the genuine mount and aultinator off the punto???

 

[nelly08]

map ecu for n/a, map 2 if you choose to turbo it. i personally wouldnt buy anyother after installing these and mapping them on many performance vehicles.

Cheers, Josh

 

[steve handley]

i removed the old engine yesterday and fitted the new one today there are 2 plugs off the old tb that are not used on the 16v is this correct also because it is a mk1 16v engine there is no cam sensor will this be ok?

 

[steve handley]

just to let you all no i got the sei up and running with the 16v engine.
now i have removed the engine and it is mounted it the back thought id do somthing different.
i have removed the rear axel tank and cut the floor out from behind the seats
i had a full day yesterday cutting and welding in the frame work and now the car is starting to come together the engine is in place just needs bolting in cheers steve
