Hey,
For those with working 20B FD set-up, just wondering if you were able to keep some of the creature comforts, ie ABS and Cruise control. I'm going with a stand alone TEC 3, but wondering if I leave the stock ECU in place also, if I can still run the ABS and Cruise systems?

Thanks,
Aaron

 

I didn't keep my ABS, but it should work it has it's own computer etc. I'm not sure about cruize. I took mine out but I'm going to put it back in. I really miss it now that i moved out of Minneapolis a little ways.

 

abs works fine , cruise is out , where i`m at i dont need it anyways

 

cruise is out, as in we cant use it?

 

i meant my cruise is out ( bad habbit of writing ...i tend to get lazy ) don`t really know if you could make it work ....probably could but it seems to be an awfull lot of work for jus a cruise control

 

understood, i use it alot just to keep myself from speeding. so i was hoping to keep it in.
does anyone use cruise on their 20b??? or am i the only weird one?

 

i was planning on (or hoping) to keep cruise, ABS, PS, and AC..... we'll see if that actually is possible once i start squeezing everything in there.

something that i WAS wondering about, was the alternator. i am changing from the stock waterpump, to an FD waterpump (for ease of maintanence should that ever come up).... and ill most likely be then switching all of my accessories to FD parts (AC, PS)... but what about the alternator. id think that i would need to keep the beefier 20b alternator to generate extra power.... but the belt size for the alt. pully is thicker on the 20b units. what are others using? cosmo, or FD alt? also, as far as pullies, i suppose ill use a set of underdrive pullies, but im not sure if my $$ would be better spent elsewhere. just wondering what others have chosen to use. -heath

 

I'm using FD pulleys & & all FD accessories, IE PS,A/C,Alt,WP. The alternator keeps up fine even with an underdrive pulley on it. I'm using stock Main & waterpump pulleys to make sure she has enough coolent flow.
