what kind of engine managment do u need for a bridgeport? full standalone or will a piggyback do the trick?

 

Standalone.

 

i see alot of people on youtube running bridgeport set ups on stock ecus is it just a bad idea? to run stock ecu?

 

If you're going to run fuel injection on a bridgeport engine, you'll need a custom intake manifold to take advantage of the port size. In order to tune the engine appropriately, a piggyback is not going to cut it. The majority of cheap, budget bridgeport setups use carbs.

 

Of course, everyone on YouTube is a rotary expert.

The stock ECU will run a bridgeport if you upsize the injectors, but it won't run well. It will be somewhat like running a bridgeport on a well tuned carb. In other words, it will run like crap.

 

yea i thought so,i was just curious they all seem to run really rough, like i know they will run rough witha bridgeport , ut these seem incredibly rough

 

Bridgeports do run rough. Its not a streetable port.

 

"Not streetable" is one of those things that comes from the days of carbureted bridgeports. With a properly tuned EFI system, the only annoyance with a bridgeport is the poor fuel mileage. And I guess the idle can qualify as an annoyance, depending on point of view.
