miniboo:

we could buy threw you and you could send em to us as a present, thus saving money.

and not too naughty either!

[Ethel]

Make sure you're comparing like for like, you can get a pack of components from the States - a built unit costs much the same as one from Martin.

[miniboo]

yeah i am comparing a kit. which works out at around 45 quid. if people are being charged 30 quid on that then it is wrong i think.

100 quid for a built MAP sensor is good as they cost about 80 from the tstaes before tax. so i guess he is buying them as a kit and then building them at home.

[Tomf]

Well iv been told but about 3 people that they got charges 30 when importing their megajolt units.... They said it was something like 10 handeling 15 import tex and then 5 for something random lol.

[smudger]

so the things now are:

mini pulley with purpose built bracket?

is this the best/easiest route for the crank pulley/VR?

group buy of dizzy plugs from MRA?

finding a decent reliable source of the latest coil system.

so all i need is a trigger wheel setup now(might speak to fastcarl)

[miniboo]

Also where the hell does one start with the mapping?

[The Matt]

The jolt will come with a basic map installed, something like 12 deg at idle, up to about 33 deg at 7000, that should get it running OK to start with.

[smudger]

why the EDIS system?

whats the latest system that can be used?

as in can you use a system from the duratec engine?

[miniboo]

i think megajolt was deigned around the edis system alone.

won a cheap laptop on ebay today that has a serial port: http://cgi.ebay.com/...I...p;rd=1&rd=1

hopefully it will run the megajolt stuff ok. if not i will put a bigger hard drive in and stick back on ebay

[smudger]

have read somewhere that you can use a PDA with right software to run it.

[miniboo]

yeah you can. i think that the guy wth the Midas's uses a PDA and bluetooth serial adaptor is his username LVM18 or summit like that?
