Re: Supercharging (this time, it's real)

I got the supercharger back on. I used some Mar-Hyde Total Prep and got the surfaces near sterile.

I'm gonna go back out, and I should be back later with those ED08 readings that Padgett requested.

Ryan: no hurry or pressure, but will I have the chips by this weekend?

A digital boost gauge on the ECC would be crazy-awesome. If you read the press release on the prototype turbo Reatta cars, there is mention of a "graphical" and "digital" display of the boost, which I assume was on the ECC.

Re: Supercharging (this time, it's real)

I've got it all back together, but can't quite get it started. It will sputter and sometimes will almost sputter enough to keep itself going without the starter motor turning.

I can't think of anything I forgot to plug in or that I did wrong, but I'm gonna cool off and let it sit in my mind overnight.

Thanks Padgett, will check again. I didn't unplug them but I may have caught something on them and unplugged one/them

So how did you get coil per cylinder to work with the Trofeo ECM?


FAST makes a product called 'eDist' that's used for aftermarket ECM's with the LS1 engines. Through a few creative modifications, it can be made to work with the 8253 ECM.

Until you've played with "smart coils" you just don't realize how weak DIS is.
