is Danny helping you out with it?

Looks like preparations for april are well underway then

Yeah, he's down this weekend.

We seem to have bitten a rather large chunk off.  Now we just need to make sure we can chew it all up in the next few weeks....

MS box, new fuse and relay box, battery and soon to be hooked up wide-band boxes are all residing in the rear seat area now.  The washer bottle is also ready to be strapped into the boot.

Engine is now MS'ed up loom-wise.  Still need to sort out the other two looms - sensors and lights and get them back in.  Got lots of surplus wiring out, too.

It has run on MS, using the dizzi as the crank position sensor.

Even from the initial running it has a very crisp bark when the throttle's blipped.  I think this is going to be maintained across the rev range as we're now running the larger ABF throttlebody, as well as the MS.  Very much looking forward to driving it.

enjoy

How are you using the dizzy as the crank position sensor? From a mechanical point of view I mean, what aspect of the dizzy is equivilent to the reading of the crank position?
How many stock sensors have you replaced with wideband?

Good work, interested to see how much better you think it runs with MS.

All those wires and electrickery stuff would give me sleepless nights (doesn't help being colour blind as well as clueless)

standard narrowband lambda sensor is replaced with wideband and it's controller.   so we can read AFR's between 10 & 20:1   instead of 14.7:1 +/- a iccel bit

other than that the MS is useing all standard vw sensors + it's internal MAP sensor.  

TPS sensor is ABF as throttel body was upgraded to ABF item for more flow
Air temp sensor is ABF as we had one
coolant temp sensor is old digi one
injectors are g60 greens on 4 bar reg

Air flow meter not required as currently useing speed density

the 2e dissy " can " be use for cranck trigger just the same way digi 2 used it.   bit of a pita to get first start untill you've worked out the offset of the sensor in the dizzy.  it's around 23 degrees ( from rotor arm centerd over notch in dizzy body ) if anyone needs to know.   it can be a bit of a pita because untill you know that getting the offset rigth the sparks can miss the connection to the relivant plug lead in the dizzy. toothed wheel much more accurate and easyer to setup, at some point soon ish i think it'll be getting upgarded as wheel and pickup are allready purchased   they just need fitting behind the flywheel. wasted spark and coil packs will also be makeing an appearance i think.

Good work, interested to see how much better you think it runs with MS.

Got high hopes for this as the management on it before was just ALL over the place, at the very least fueling-wise.

Auto-tune with the wide-band should get the fueling on the nail pretty much, then we need to figure the ignition map.  Danny is waiting on some knock sensing kit which should complete the whole picture.
