Only running ignition. Might go 7 port in the distant future.Sounds like a great build! Will the megasquirt just be running the ignition or will it be fuel injected as well?Thought I would post a topic on my latest project. I plan to put a 1293 turbo engine into my mini thirty. I'll post pics & clips of the car running in due course. I've always wanted a turbo engine, and started looking into used engines, but didn't make financial sense to invest so much money into a iffy engine, that's tired, and worn, at best.
The spec list.

The block was built by steve benross, and he will also be doing my cylinder head.
Let the games begin. :)
Sounds like a plan, as I understand it fuel injecting the a series is a real pain anyway because of the siamese ports!
