Swedish Mike Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Help me out guys, is there any US built cheap EMS´s out there for 5 cyl? Possible to buy a "ready to use" MS?Will use the distributor and ignition from 850.The thing is this, a kid bought my old engine and are mounting it in a 242 with BMW tranny.We need some sort of EMS but he can´t afford Nira or other 1500 USD EMS´s.Thanks guys!/Mike and Project 242T5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Che'_Moderator Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 1500 is a cheap EMS. Gems is 3kish, Pectel is 4-6k, everything I can think of is over 1500. Do you NEED ignition, injection and datastream? If you dont need a datastream you can go with 034EFI. Look for the nearest box of cracker-jacks and check the bottom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to buy something cheapcheap.I need a basic EMS without logging and ignition, our best bet right now is a stock 4.3 but faster to wire a stand alone and easier to do custom maps./Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price?/Mike i personally haven't tried it on a 5 cyl, i know it'll be batch fire, but it'll work. i've worked with pats 240/ms1 and it's incredibly easy and fun to tune.megasquirt is a really cheap (pricewise 300 for ms1, 500 for ms2) standalone that turbobrickers love to use for 4 cylinders. www.megamanual.comwww.msefi.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
