Any tips or advice ? Maybe some pics ?
Have been told that I can use audi 2.0 8v fuel rail and the mk2 dizzy but I am unsure of what injectors to use?
Also do I retain the aav, 5th injector and vac lines ect ?
And the main thing is which ecu to choose ? Do I need the extra relay box ?
Keep finding info on 20vt's ect running megasquirt but not 1.8 8v's !
Basically I dont wont to sound like an idiot when I ring up to order lol !
Im lucky that megasquirt.co.uk is based about 15 miles away so I can pick it up in person !
Thanks !

Before you order anything you need to understand it.
I assume this is to replace your current K jet?
I've never squirted a k-jet and there's probably no point. You may as well drop a digifant in or similar. I'm guessing you will probably need to change the head for a digifant type so you can fit standard style electronic injectors.
You won't need the fifth injector as MS will do the same job through the main injectors.
You will change the AAV with either a 3 or 4 wire one and the MS will control it by Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) You will need a throttle position switch (TPS)

And yomp, I have a big valve head so don't intend on buying another ! You can get round it by using later mk2 injector seats ( or so ive heard ! ). I have read that g60 injectors work but will have to double check on that before I go buying !
Slowly forming a plan ! Not sure how to fit a tps to my throttle body yet but im sure I'll figure something out !

Have bought a audi 8v fuel rail and injectors of fleabay aswell as the injector wiring harness.
Also put in a cheeky offer on a 2e dizzy !
Cant get through to megasquirt on the phone so will try an email tonight to order the ecu itself.

It has a shaft mounted tps ( well I think its a tps) on it !
Hopefully I can switch the butterfly shaft ect over to my current tb, will need to make a bracket to hold it in place.

Slowly moving with this project ! Ive used pb digifant injector seats, vr6 injectors, audi 80 (abk) fuel rail. In the process of making the brackets to hold it all in place !
Just need to find/make the fuel feed and return pipes now !

Anyone know what size and type of fittings attach to these on the fuel rail ?
Found some audi 80 fuel lines but they have the extra pipe for the 5th injector which I dont need ?

cant help with fitting, all I can suggest is try various bolts till you find one that threads in nicely or buy 2 sets of ABK fuel lines, or maybe cut the nuts off that set and flare up your own set of metal pipes?
also try local hydraulics suppliers, they should be able to sort you out

My ecu has arrived now so time to get wiring !
Just need to find out if I can drive the coil directly or still have to use the ignition control module.
There are some abk fuel lines on ebay so will try them. If they dont fit neatly then I can still use the fittings to make my own.
Will have to dust of the soldering iron and get cracking before summer is over !
