I'm about to have my son Josh build the motor that will be in our '67 VW Squareback for Bonneville. The motor will be a NA 2316cc Porsche 914 motor running MS3X with 2 MAP sensors which *should* be elevation compensating, COP ignition and of course a WBO2 sensor. We're planning to dyno tune the motor with Mario Velotta of
www.thedubshop.net which is my goto guy for Megasquirt and it's tuning, but live at sea level.
My questions are:
1. Since I'm going to be running 2 map sensors (one sensing the engine load and one sniffing the outside air pressure) should I be able to tune it at sea level and have it accurately compensate for the elevation at Bonneville or should I still plan on tuning a little lean at sea level??
2. Any tips for a rookie running this EFI at Bonneville?? The car currently runs MS2 (MS2 extra firm wear) w/ EDIS and is dead reliable. We're taking a big leap on this one and can't yet see the net. . .
We're really looking forward to getting down to the salt for the first time and going balls-to-the-wall and entrance (hopefully) into the 130 club!!
