Megasquirt: Can I run one TWM TB with my Lynx manifold?

[eurotrash]

The manifold I built has a split collector with the 1/4, 2/3 port configuration.

This pic was obviously taken before our visit a couple weekends ago.. there are no slobber trails on that manifold.

Can you squeeze 02 sensors in the collector halves and have them read accurately?

Scary, I was just thinking the same thing. The collector has a plate welded internally to segregate the port combos so weld in a couple of bungs and you have it!

Now we need to make it happen.

an interesting exercise, but for all the effort, and already having the EMS, i would just go for the four ITB's. you are almost there, why short yourself the power and tunability by forcing a lessor solution?

Well mostly because I already have the lynx on my shelf and I don't have a dual sidedraft manifold. But also for the 'interesting exercise' part, but that actually gets back to my original question: is that both interesting and lucrative enough to risk experimenting with instead of the 318 setup. . . I still think the answer is yes, but I'm still more skeptical about the injection timing with Megasquirt than with exhaust O2 or manifold condensation issues, cause after all, the lynx did run pretty well with the carb! So my gut says that it should work even better with Megasquirt, but I guess I'll just have to try and find out!

I wouldn't worry about it. It'll work eventually... Just get proper sized injectors... the timing is a tuning issue and can only be worked out properly with man hours after the assembly is put together.

injection timing

it just won't matter. Really. Go for it!
