Talk about a big shot =-) Very nice setup / motor. I can tell this one by far will over do the old setup. That's a very nice nitrous setup. Those bungs in the headers on those 4 cylinders are all for the wideband? Or 3 is for wideband and one o2 sensor. That's odd. Usually widebands just have one plug in. How does that nitrous controller work with relation to the air / fuel & wideband?

We dont have any type of MSD box for our cars Appearently MSD cant make the ignition any better than it is. The only timming retard we can do it either in the computer or an external type device.

the bungs in the headers are for the ET datalogger. It will measure variances between cylinders. Its different than the wideband 02 sensor. It directly measures temps of each cylinder. Max EGT's that you want to see can be set in the datalogger. Once they reach that setting...on ANY cylinder...a warning will go off and you can have it shut the nitrous down.

The integrated wideband measures the AF ratio farhter back in the header collector. It also has user defined parameters that will shut down the juice if a certain AF ratio is seen. Like say...anything 12.5 to 1 or leaner and it will shut the juice off.

The reason for BOTH wideband and 8 EGTs is...I wanted to be able to see the differences between each cylinder. That way you can see any cylinder that may have a tendancy to be leaner...or richer than others and jet with the direct port accordingly. It will also tell you if certain cylinders are deteriorating over time. A very useful piece.

Timing will be controlled with a custom tune for each size shot I will run.

I bet the jets will be fun to change once that baby is in.

Ill only change them from where I start with the smallest set of jets (200 shot) and where I end up (400+ shot) during the tuning and testing of the controller. Once that is set up the controller will do the rest and the 400 shot...or whatever goes in...will stay there. So I wont have to change them much once everything is set. If I have the 500 shot pills in...I can use the contoller to start at 20% of the 500 shot (100hp) at say 3000 rpm...and then ramp to 80% (400 shot) by 7000 rpm. Or anywhere in between.
