Why do you even bother taking the time to post? I know both of your
opinions about the system from the first couple of pages... both as expert shop tuners have taken the "proven ground". To me, this is a freaking hobby...
This is how I look at it as posted in previous
Time- yes there is a lot more time and knowledge that has to go into this instead of your plug and play system. It has a steep learning curve to it and there are a lot of things you have to figure out on your own.
Money-
You have to buy or find:
MS2 ECU<-- forgot to add, I had to upgrade to a 4 bar map sensor with altitude correction
$247.00+$65.00
GM IAC, CLT<-- I did splurge and bought new ones... guilty... wanted to make sure they worked...
$17.25 + $16.25
Knocksense <-- uses the factory mitsu knocksensor (or bosh or whichever knock sensor) plus comes with a blinky bulb to show when it is reading knock. can be set for sensitivity. Expensive but better then no knock sensor. I think it is a must for a turbo car
$65.00
WB O2 <-- which I think you should buy even with DSMlink or AEM EMS but that is just my opinion.
315.00
Wire<-- really expensive from radioshack...
um... $20.00 maybe...
Soldering gun <--- however used this to make other proper connections (radioshack again)
$20.00
ECU wiring from another car (Hyundai car worked) + relays
$3 <--expensive....
748.50
make it fair $800 for a ECU+ with WB 02
there you got me...
