Well hey man, I really appreciate you taking the time to educate me. The reason I became interested in all of this is that I'm putting an SVX engine into an early Porsche 911 and I was doing research on the factory engine management. I'm going to run it N/A at first, but I have plans for a turbo once I know that I can keep everything cool enough. I just scored an ECU that is supposed to have a stage 2 chip in it (2v7 I hope) and it's nice to know that I won't have to spend hours and hours trying to figure out how to tweak and tune the engine management to make it reliable and powerful tune. It's rather focus more of my time doing what I'm good at (fabrication) and less time trying to learn electronics and how the different systems work. I'll leave that to the smart guys like you
I was afraid I might have to go full stand alone but it doesn't sound like I'll have to. And why would I?
