well, I take it track night didn’t go as planned? What happened?:(

Junk is slow af

But I was talking with a guy last night about holley ecu, needing new injectors, needing a lot. And he brought up the holley injectors and it just clicked... the holley can run low impedence injectors that are like $1k less than a set of high impedence (all the stock ecu can run) injectors that I had stuck in my head I needed.
So I've been going back and forth like injectors won't help to go any faster if I don't have a new ecu, ecu won't help to go any faster if I don't have injectors.
So justification for spending money getting closer

Sounds like the Holley ecu is the ticket.

making the engine run is the easy part, theres plenty of very good engine management systems... im attempting to integrate it and keep everything else working. which means i need to simulate outputs back to the bcm, abs, hvac, fuel pumps, etc or do sort of a piggy back and make the stock ecu think its still running the engine so it can relay the info back to all the other modules via the can-bus

But do you really NEED things like lights, heat/ac, cluster, abs, etc? I mean fuel pump yes obviously but maybe you just want things you don’t need. Priorities priorities priorities. :devilfinger:
