TPS

Throttle position sensor

This tells the ECU what postion the throttle is at

Now most people mount this up on engine next to butterfly's

I mounted it next to the throttle pedal under dash this ...

A. Makes it confusing when looking at engine how does it work :scratch:
B. Gives a never level of tunablity.

I will be able to make sure just before the butterfly's open fuel starts.
This will help stop the blower sneezing which can be deadly.



Made Alu house/axle block , welded rod to pedal and rose joint bar.

Fuel tank

When I made my lowered boot floor I made it a little bigger than the tank.

So I coukd line it (from demon Tweeks its £97 a sheet) or you could go to a camping shop ;)


Lined and put tank in then made up some Alu straps to hold it down for when doing some duke jumps

Your doing some great stuff Will.

I think you could of come down on weight/ strength of the TPS bracketry & Rod ends, it doesn't need much effort to alter the TPS position.

Must of taken a while to get the ratios right ;)

I saw this lot for real the other day. Really clever stuff :thumbright:
The dash wiring looks truly terrifying up close!

Do you have foam between the tank and the straps mate, can't tell from the pics?

Next I had a braket machined up to hold my huge fuel reg.

It's boost reference so will increase fuel pressure at a 1:1 ratio to inlet Mainfold pressure.


Polished up and nice and close to fuel rails

Will,
I am not saying you will have a problem & most likely all will be OK. But it's not good practise to solid mount regulators.

Thanks mark I see where you coming from its a piston in a bush that won't like being rattled by engine will see how we get on with it can always change later.

Since I am mounting it solid I can use hardline to feed my fuel rails.

I know it was discussed previously, but you are regulating after the rails ?

You want full pressure going to the fuel rails....

Don't worry, I must get better glasses ;)

Well I would love to tell you all stories of making inlet runners longer and the quantum leap phenomenal.

But it's. Basically a 4inch penis enlarger that will make my blower/EFI setup

Stick out the bonnet another 4inches :geek: :geek: :geek:

Yep, you are definitely going to have to cut a big hole for that one, and drive wearing Stilts with a cushion on the seat!!!
