Supercharge your vw

Slowly ...tinkering with my bus ,work and making stuff for others gets in the way

Check out my other thread on my Dec 72 Westy

 

been messing with the throttle body linkage ...completely home made cable set up costing a massive £9 will post more pics of the fishished
items when back from being anodised....as you can see in the pic home made cable end with 4mm x 7mm ball bearing

 

Cable linkage works incredibly well with loads of adjustment and cost just £9 ....( ok so that was just the cable the rest I made so no cost .) .this joins both throttle bodies together at the middle ...the throttle cable attaches to the end of one of the throttle bodies via another bracket .....

 

Amazing skill here! Looking forwards to seeing it finished.

I was gonna say that. Can't quite figure out how it works but it looks ace.

 

Throttle bodies are joined middle to middle and throttle cable from pedal goes to the end ... As they are off a motorbike I had to work with what's there and it's very similar to the rather expensive cable linkage unisync ... It's all being adapted to work cheaply or free ..

 

Now I have worked out tapatalk more pics

These are the bigger J tubes but fitted to the bus to trial them out , and the über rare tins fitted

You Sir are my Hero !

 

He hasn't started it yet.

 

Or likely too anytime soon ......unless I pull my finger out

 

Wiring ( not my strong point ) but that's all of it ...

 

looks neat

 

@lhu1281 That power board looks ace, here's the one I made for my megasquirted van, which incidentally still isn't on the road due to the faulty "reconditioned" gearbox... (been waiting since august don't need to go into it but suffice to say don't ever buy a "Wrights" recon gearbox)

Anyways here it is, the black box on the right is my home made coil-on-plug driver box (made from 4 x BIP373), and I used deutsch connectors so that I can unplug my injector/coil/sensor looms and leave them on the motor, this proved its worth when i had to drop then lump out again after finding my recon box was fubar...

I re-purposed my old ECU to make a "cradle" for the Megasquirt so that is housed where the original one was, my bus was originally L-Jet injected...

Love this project cannot WAIT to see it on the road mate (still intend to document mine I will eventually)

 

Awesome engineering going on but I think i'll be running some of the posts through google translate to see if it helps me understand it any better lol
