Any tips or advice ? Maybe some pics ?
I'm probably worrying too much though, not like G60 ecus have problems driving the coils direct without an ignition amp

with the wiring diagrams it depends which ECU version you go for and how its been built, this is one to ask the ecu builder about he'll know which diagram you need to follow

On another note.. is it possible to take two feeds of the coolant sensor ? I bought one from extraefi but I was hoping to fit in the hole where the thermotime switch was, but the thread is too large ??? Could maybe get a new boss welded on the coolant flange??
Maybe there is another sender that will fit in that hole ?

Need to replace some of what is left of the original bay loom as there are quite a few splits and breaks !!

Thinking about using this instead of the current throttle body, maybe smooth out the inlet side for more flow ? Would save me the job of switching over the tps as mine has no lugs to attach it…

only thing is it looks quite restrictive on the smaller port vs a normal GTI one, though not sure if that would actually make much of a difference. Think it might be a 2.0 16v thing? anyway heres a mk2 16v one for comparison:

sometimes the front half can be split o0ff from the main housing, if so you may be able to fit a mk2 one on there to open it back up?

I have to run a wire from the ecu to the fuel pump relay, I have heard that pin d13 on the fuse board is a good place but will have to check. The relay is currently fired by coil so I assume it will be obvious when I pop it out.

Not looked at this part of the wiring yet as I deliberately left all this till last.
Got next week off work so hopefully should have it up and running by next weekend, well as long as the weather holds out as im doing all this on my driveway !!!

for an ms install though I recommend you use the ecu trigger to D/13 and swap the fuel relay for a 67/80/167 relay so the ecu has full control over the fuel pump
the GTI cabby will have the fuel pump wiring in as you sday, plus the male spade I mention hanging off the same feed you can utilise for the lambda heater

Could'nt use the audi t/b as there is no idle screw !
So I moved the tps and shaft into the mk2 8v t/b and made a little bracket to hold the tps !
Just enough clearance and works a treat !

Its recommended that they should be about two feet from the exhaust ports, if I do this then it will only be measuring two cylinders ??
To measure all four it would need to be right at the end of the down pipe which is beyond the anti roll bar ?

Also there is no wire/pin for d/13 ? Do I have to put a pin in myself ?
Checked other wires on the connectors and they tally up ? I wonder why fuel feeds are coming out of the wrong pin ?
Makes me nervous about using d/13 lol. At the moment my fuel pump relay only works when engine is running/cranking (no priming) so should be ok to use for setting up ?
Also another dumb question but changing the relay means that I dont have to disconnect the coil/rpm signal
I assume as there is no pin for it on the relay hence switching the d/13 ?
Otherwise I could connect the coil signal straight to the dash loom and then replace the coil signal on the d connector with the ecu signal for the relay ?
Of course this could all be rubbish haha.

Modified the old airbox by removing the air plate and arm, and blocked the metering head hole !
