Hello everyone,
I'd like to solicit your opinions about what would be the best way to go about setting up a duratec with fuel injection.
Sorry in advance for the long post. I have many questions on this topic and am happy to learn whatever I can.
I recently acquired an SV with a duratec fed by twin webers. The car is running well right now and the more I drive it the more I like it. However, I can't help but feel that with the propper EFI setup this engine would have more to offer. So, what's the best way to do it?
Is it worth dealing with the OEM ECU? I could go to a junkyard and pull the entire intake and ECU from a focus or ranger and re-program the ECU. This would be the cheapest option (besides just keeping the webers), but what would I be giving up?
As fas as programmable ECU's go, which ones do you like and why? It seems like pectel is fairly common on sevens. Why would someone want a T6 over a T2?
I have been searcing blatchat about this for a while and I noticed that motec doesn't seem to be common on the sevens and many people like the emerald. What do you think of the emerald ECU?
Is jenvey the way to go with throttle bodies?
What else is needed, such as sensors, software, gagues, etc.?
Thanks for any input on this. I'm trying to figure out which way to go on this and where to best focus my energy.
