'90 Caravan - 2L DOHC Turbo

MegaSquirt has allowed me to put a much newer and more efficient motor into my work van. This van started out life as a '90 Plymouth Voyager with a 2.5L turbo 8valve motor in it. I got 250k miles out of that old motor before a lack of oil pressure prompted me to change out that tired old motor soone...

Re: '88 Dodge Omni, 2.4L MS2Extra

I just finished converting to E85 and installing a turbocharger (stock SRT4 turbo). I installed 100lb injectors to keep up with the fuel demands, and to give me some room to grow. Works like a champ, still fires right up and idles when it's cold. I'll be moving to sequential injection with the MS2-E...

Still going great. 20k miles on the car now since the engine swap and MS install. Got cold starting figured out earlier this winter. It now fires up like an OEM ECM at any temperature. I have remote start on the car and it always works, idles at a good idle speed during warmup too. I'm using an aux ...

Still running like a dream. Been through a couple oil changes now. Sold my backup car and this is now my primary daily driver. I get about 32mpg on my commute to and from work. I imagine I'd see 35mpg on a freeway road trip, if not better than that even. Power is outstanding, haven't had it to the t...

Let's see.. What's all new.. Biggest upgrade was the step up to Megasquirt II running the MS2-Extra Alpha code. Got at least 1,000 miles on the new CPU. I'm very happy with it for the most part. Wiring up the IAC idle control soon. I swapped in some low impedance 33lb injectors. This dropped my peak...

Gone through the first tank of gas now. With mostly city driving on the car, and lots of WOT blasts, I got 28mpg out of the first tank. I'm happy with that. I'm going to have to swap in bigger injectors, the duty cycle is pegging at WOT at 5800rpm. Forgot to mention in my first post that I had also ...

'88 Dodge Omni, 2.4L MS2Extra

I have a blog about the swap, http://www.turbododge.info/Archive.html But a quick summary is, I swapped in a 2.4L DOHC motor from a '99 Stratus into an '88 Dodge Omni (actually, it's titled as a Plymouth Horizon..). I used the stock crank trigger (Neon/420a mode) and fire the stock coilpack with the...
