Fuel injection

[Garrick Clark]

Would using the Dells with just the throttle blades work as throttle bodies. Injector bosses welded into the manifolds.

Micke:those are the FAJS ones right?Do you have experience with them?Are they any good?

Cheers,Arnoud

FAJS a company in China that makes very nice carburetors
The quality is very nice even on their copies.
 Used a lot in folk racing and Rally   (A cheaper form of rallycross  ) in Sweden

Yeah that's a good price. So once the throttle bodies in place what  is a common ECU to use that can self tune

Yes
It's just the hardware
The ECU is up to using what suits you best
I know a car that has them 45mm In it they have 1040 whk  (So that should be enough)

Dells as throttle bodies would help me get a better ECU

That would also be a nice option, seen the fajs before, but bought the vw speedshop ones because the fajs were not big enough in my opinion but I saw that they also sell bigger ones now.

As for using the dells as tb's that should be a possibility. A friend of my has 48 ida's as tb's. I dont know if it is needed to block the fuel/idle circuit, but maybe nice to machine the venturi for 40mm, because you don't need it anymore.

Regarding the ecu, I use Megasquirt 2 (extra, sequential ignition) for years now. I know there are a lot of other brands on the market, but don't have any experience with them.

Thanks Mark.

Thanks Mark.

i'm another one for Megasquirt, ran MS1 2.2 which is very old, for a long time, then i built a V3 board and now just starting it with MS3 V3 which is a huge step up....

are you planning on tuning it your self or taking it to somewhere in particular? in which case check what they tune... 

[Garrick Clark]

Well. If my last of many last attempts at Dell blow through doesn't work I'm looking for some reputable shop to fit n tune it.

If you’re looking for someone to tune it then Ed at Fusion Motorsports is your man. He’s mapped many 500+HP turbo VW motors and knows his onions. https://www.fusion-motorsport.co.uk/

The ECU question is a whole can of worms as each have their followers. As people have said before choose who you’re going to use to map it and take their recommendation. I use OMEX on mine now and am very happy with it but Syvecs are amazing (but a bit overkill for my N/A motor).

I’m using the CB 48mm throttle bodies which are fine, been running them for over 10 years but don’t know if they’re boost suitable. I shall be putting together a boosted motor soon and will use Jenveys on that, great kit, good price and a UK company so good support.

max ecu is amazing and very well priced .dta will get it done ,but by the time you have bought wideband and data logging you can buy a max that has it all inbuilt  also has 8x egt/cht k type inputs wired to loom
vw speedshop throttle bodies are good and well priced your dells are probably worth as much as a set of speedshop t/bs ?
