New ECU project - Page 3 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Bosch Motorsport P50M. Expensive little buggers. They have no internal ignitors so have to be driven either direct (if the ecu is capable) or with some external power stage. In my case the ecu can drive them direct.

And forgot to mention, you have to buy the boot separately.

So in theory these would not work on an ls1 car right? I am using D514a coils in my experiment

That’s right, not with a stock gm ecu

That looks impressive.

custom plug wires finished and routed. you can also see parts of the motorsports-spec wire harness.

And I got the ECU powered up and running. Cam and crank patterns are detected and in sync. Whew!

I'll be cranking it up within a few days.

Nice work Todd, I can`t wait to see this engine running on this top performance ECU.

I am pleased to report.... IT RUNS.

After initially having the cam sync 360 degrees out of phase, when fixed, it freakin' starts right up. I'm thrilled.

New aftermarket ECU
custom wiring harness
sequential ignition coils
from scratch calibration

Sweet, sweet LT5 music barking out of the exhaust. I'll try to make a blog video tomorrow.

The end of the beginning... now I have to optimize it.
