well I want the e6x for later upgrades.. but is there any reasons why I shouldnt use it on my stock NA in the mean time?

What fuel system upgrades are suggested with these systems?

Stock fuel system will work fine if it is in good condition. The Stock injectors flow more then enough for a stock port on a -SE and a S4 13B. You can see some pictures of my install on my MSN site.

the e6x will be installed on my stock street ported t2 this week, i think its the best way to start especially if you will ever be thinking of forced induction.

I think I'm going to get an E6x for my project. It'll be an '85 S with an S4 block with a RB light steel flywheel, an S5 intake, and a racing beat "streetport" exhaust system. I'll use an FC ignition system. I'm not sure about what sensors I need to replace with the E6X. Anyone have a list of which stock ones work and which don't?

DannyD

i believe it replaces all sensors except for the MAP which has to be bought seperatly.

bouis

But you can use the S4 or S5 TPS, right?

DannyD

i dont know if it is usable or not, but why use the s5 or s4 one when a new tps comes with the kit?

bouis

Because it's not exactly bolt on.

DannyD

I'll let ya know after me and my homie install it this week.

bouis

Great. I wonder if the non-turbo and turbo TPS mount the same way. I don't know much about 2nd gen engines. If it does you'll have to make a spare bracket for me

DannyD

yeah, im still a newbie to the engine myself, but ive got my friend who has a lot of experiance with them, i was supposed to be installing it tonight, but damn dhl cant get the package to me and i went to pick it up today and my other car blew a fuse on the way and put my project off till tuesday because of the holiday weekend.

No.

So how did it go?

DannyD

wasnt too bad to fabricate the tps bracket, took my friend about 10 min to make. i dotn believe you can use the stock tps sensors, your best bet would be to just make the bracket, it takes only a few minutes.

bouis

How'd he make his? I have no fabrication skills beyond bending thin metal with a vice & hammer. Oh yeah and I have a dremel and a drill

DannyD

thats all you need. just get a strip of metel cut it and bend it so it mounts up in the original tps place and its not touching anything else, then drill the holes for the bolts to mount the bracket, then either bolt or screw the new tps sensor to the bracket, make sure there no play whatsoever and install it!!

ill try to get a picture of mine.
