Pro EFI ECU Install Part 2

Here's an engine bay shot that shows everything in place, including the replacement intake pipe. Everything works at this point, and the car has been raced in this configuration several times now. All that remains to be done is the removal of unused sensors and solenoids.


Here's a closeup of the intake pipe and air filter. It's made out of mandral-bent aluminum sections, TIG welded together, and wrapped with reflective insulation. It starts out at 3" at the filter, necks down to 2.75" at the first bend, and then necks down again to 2.25" at the turbine inlet. The flange just past the filter is for the airbox heat shield (yet to be fabricated)

Note that the BOV inlet was retained, even though a speed/density system can vent to atmosphere. Why waste filtered air?


Another shot of the intake and intercooler piping. Notice how much larger the air filter is, and how straight the intercooler piping is. Lightweight, free-flowing, and as straight as possible. Little things add up! The turbo can now spool from dead idle to 24PSI in 1.5 seconds!


This is a screenshot of the ProEFI interface, showing all that's available. The yellow blob is the fuel map. More control than you ever thought possible!
