February 10, 20215 yr Author allrighty, sorry for the long wait, I've been hard at the wiring! and i think im done! woo this next post is gonna be a long one, ill try to explain whats i did so, the injectors are paired in a way, where #1 & #2 are paired and #3 & #4 are aswell, they are located about a foot past the big grommet hole. lots of connection checking, re taping and tracing done, finally time to wrap it all up! side note: there are only 4 grounds for the ENTIRE HARNESS AND BODY all of them need to be perfect, as each has about 10-15 wires per bolted on connection point. trimmed, cleaned up and re wraped the engine harness. the most important ground is located on the end with the most wires ending up there. (about 15 splitting to another dozen) The upper most wire is using some existing wires on the harness and its nowwired into the intake air temp sensor. Edited February 14, 20215 yr by turbodog
February 10, 20215 yr Author cleaned and re wrapped the power in wires heres the new ecu wired up to the existing harness , will get buttoned up once im sure all the parameters are reading correctly and i know i dont need to add any more connections. (yeah i see the connector that's not shrank yet, lol) aaand thats about it for now..

February 11, 20215 yr Author So far ive gotten the fuel pump to turn on in test mode, same goes for the coil, boost solenoid, all 4 injectors and anything else i can test... i've got what looks to be the right signals now... but i cant find out how to make the whole thing " do the thing" lol.
February 12, 20215 yr Got any issues with the crank angle sensor in the dizzy? Just putting it out there. Cheers Bennie

Cheers Bennie yeah, but its just inexperience that's causing me some issues here.. i may have figured it out last night. im gonna see what results i come up with.. its somewhat reading, but i found out that i wasn't gettting 12v to the dizzy's power so the voltages in the sensors aren't quite right (supposed to be 5V)
February 14, 20215 yr Author aww man, my coil died! and so did my distributor rotor, the metal fell off! :O also, danget! i wish i could be driving it in this right now

Cheers Bennie lol, well, ive got a nice tig, so i may weld up that crack they love to get, but everything else is new... so hopefully hg's keep it goin for a while. i may be in the market for an adapter plate *sigh* ive got an ej25 with a set of ej20 turbo heads... but that's another recipe for head gaskets.... hmmm Honda J series lol Edited February 17, 20215 yr by turbodog
February 26, 20215 yr Author bad turbo, getting a new upgrade soon, and got ahold of an old ea82 header designer... just gotta wait for shipping and then do some welding! this is what its gonna look like after its done, but its gonna be in pieces when it shows up
February 26, 20215 yr That’s an epic project to be taking on! I’m spoob at welding exhausts. Got a crappy bottom of the ring MIG welder to go with it. Can’t vary amperage other than two settings via a switch. Not fun. Can complain since it was given to me. Cheers Bennie

Cheers Bennie yeah, having a good welder does make a huge difference. its going to be my first tig experience, The guy said he will send me some scraps to practice getting the settings right first, so thats nice.

March 3, 20215 yr Interesting. Is that header NOS, or did you convince them to build one for you? Neither of my TWE headers have the flexible section.
March 3, 20215 yr Inferno Fabrications in St. Helens has done EA82T stuff for us in the past - needed an up-pipe for a customer several years ago and he made one up. GD
