I tried taking a pic the other day of my sensor location but couldnt get it
its drill n tapped into the exhaust port area so it get hot pretty quick
Its a single wire type from VW from memory
hers a pic of the left hand side wiring it goes through the tin ware to the sensor
will try n get a pic tomorrow
Thanks Dave,
Is that on the drivers side of the engine?? Looks to be near cylinder #2???
Would love to see the other pic. 😵
😏 Gotta love a Buggy!!! 😏
Yes on drivers side easier to get to the other side has air cleaner n junk
Based on my experience with EFI this is what Id recommend
Injectors are way too big . I was running 580s in the S3 when it made 330whp and they were about 90% duty cylce . Your better off getting 280s off a golf gti if you plane on going turbo or even 200cc off a VR6 if your keeping it N/A . Also the newer injectors have a better spray pattern than the earlier ones .
I would also run heatshielding on the fuel rails . if your going turbo the rails will prob need to be replaced as will fuel pump .
What fuel pressure are you running ?
Is it wideband or narrowband ?
Is it running a MAP sensor or TPS only ?
Where abouts is the temperature sender ?
the injectors are 260cc i had them flowed
fuel pressure is 45lbs
it runs TPS then flicks over to MAP
the temp sensor is in the head
Hi
I am new to this forum and searched and found your EFI project, fascinating !!
I want to do something similar but am struggling to find much information on it... Any tips ?
I was thinking along the lines of a Ford EDIS ignition system hooked upto a Megasquirt, not even thought about fuel rails and injectors.....
Any advice would be appreciate.
Thanks

Hi,
I just found this forum today and it sounds great. I have a '71 Ghia with my home built FI on a 2276cc NA engine. I used a 52mm TB from a '87 Dodge van 3L v6, CB FI end manifolds with my center section. CB fuel rails with 3/8" steel hard lines to the 20lb injectors. I run 40psi at the injectors. I installed two new 3/8" steel fuel lines through the tunnel with a pre pump filter up front and the HP filter up by the starter. I have EDIS ignition with Megasquirt MS2. I only have about 100 miles on the car so far but performance is unbelievable!! Now if I can figure out how to send some photos I will and also happy tp answer any questions. I know I had a lot of them.
Good to find you guys from down under 🙂
