Theres is so much information in this board about people wanting to install a haltech for the first time. Why don't we make a list of everything that can stay and go. One for emissions and one for with out. Onless some one has already done this and I just over looked it.

 

no one has really done a complete step by step instal..i plan to in the comming weeks when i wire up my haltec on my new engine

there are a few write ups on instal but none super detailed

is a list of connections..leave out what u want

 

I ment more along the lines of what you can remove. See my engine caught on fire and I have now pulled it out. While its out I want to know what I can remove on my car and what must stay. Which vaccum lines can go and what else must stay in the car.
Can I leave the meetering oil system in the car and just let in run on safe mode disconnected from the ecu permently? Or will it be to much oil or to little?

Let me guess...you posted that your car caught on fire, and you asked what you should do (versus the high cost of replacing all the parts that burned)?&nbsp I bet you someone said go Haltech...

Do you have a grasp of basic fuel injection and engine control systems?
Do you have any idea what it takes to tune a stand-alone EMS unit?
Are you paying someone else to install and tune?


You might want to start by telling us if you want to keep any of your emissions?


The engine needs some type of internal lubrication.&nbsp You have your choice of running mechanical oil metering, trying to keep your electrical oil metering, or going pre-mix...

You're asking waaaaay too general and vague questions.&nbsp You might want to give us more info the next time around...

Sorry your right Ted. I don't care about emissions. I would prefer to not use a pre-mix soloution but if it ends up being the easyest then maybe I must.
As far as knowledge goes I'm not sure. Mechanicaly I think I'm pretty could but electrically I'm not. But my father is so I'm not to worried. But no I have no ecu tunning experience and I wasn't planning on having some one else install it.

-Do you have a grasp of basic fuel injection and engine control systems?

Yea I haven't really been stumped yet.

I've never seen a mechanical version of the oil mettering unit though.
