Thanks, Jonas!

Whenever you get tired of your Corolla, I'm first in line to buy it.

cng1, love that flip up front!

It does make access to the engine bay rather easier

In case anyone wonders the gas ram/hinge units are from an Audi 80 boot lid.

is that not an injection mini with an air filter like that???

It's a 92 SPI injection cooper. When we bought it [mumble] years ago it was part way through a carb conversion and was supposedly 99% finished. In reality it was missing carb, ignition system, manifolds, fuel pump, tank... oh and worse than that all the panels forward of the bulkhead were rotten through and all the panels below ankle-high were also rotten through. Cue a major resto project, a megajolt install and the development of the A-series map from which many of the ones you see floating around now are derived.

More recently though the car has been used as an injection testbed - there was too much FUD floating around about how it was impossible to inject a siamese ported engine so liking to take on an "impossible" challenge we set out to prove things once and for all. We've had all the combinations of single-point and multi-point port injection on there and proven that within limits injection is very possible.

I suppose i better add a pic......

Here is another for the site banner. Its the best pic i have at the moment.

Interesting car cng1, what ecu did you use for the siamese injecting. I was looking at injecting my current project and have fitted a return line and tapped the tank but that is kind of on hold at the moment.

Bog standard Megasquirt running the extra code is all you need to inject an a-series. Avoid the port injected twin-point setup, the single-point SPI setup is a much better starting point. You can run some semi-sequential code that attempts to minimise the charge robbing but I didn't bother.
