I love nice wires. Engine has audi coil on plug now

Thanks man! This isnt my first rodeo, but ill be sure to document everything so those that come after have it easier. The M111 is like the unknown cheaper option to a k swap. Already set for rwd, boost friendly compression. Its a sweet setup, and no one has really tested the limits.Originally posted by OrangeBlue View PostTotally cool with nerding out.
Make sure to make yourself a very good documentation like wiring diagrams, sensor calibrations, part numbers of stuff you use.
You'll bite yourself if something fails after a year.., having to figure everything out again. Save everything on your pc but also
print it out. Proper automotive connectors, like metri pack, amp or deutsch.
Putting a car on a standalone can be very devastating, i needed two weeks to figure out why my timing light wasn't working with the
new ecu, but doing fine with the factory one... don't let that get to you.
Good luck!

Haha I know right? It is the best solution. Complete control, and RusEFI Micro has e throttle control and is very budget friendly, and fully open source.Originally posted by gnmzl View PostWell, that quickened escalately
In for swap with standalone ecu
It will be here beginning of next week, hope you guys are cool with nerding out (touchscreen gauges custom fit to stock gauge cluster, bluetooth enabled, launch control etc....)
Yea its a sweet build, lots of similarities, but I want to push the SC to see what it can really do (with good porting, fueling, meth injection or e85)Originally posted by mgpdoc View PostSaw a similar model on youtube with the swap, that was then complimented with a nice turbo.

Thanks yeah! Ill be porting the SC, making my own tune etc.. From everything ive seen from the Norwegien and Polish boys, that should be around 240whp/260wtq. Double where I am at now.Originally posted by hinrichs View PostNice, looks like that will be fun after the swap. Cant wait to watch the progress on it.
Yeah originally that was the plan, but these Centras fell into my lap and I had to try them out. I am hunting for center caps still, and with 15s I can go lowerOriginally posted by Graphitemk6 View PostFeel like it needs atleast some 17s. Engine swap will be interesting for sure.
Yeah the M111 is an interesting engine for sure.
