R36 with stand alone ECU..?

[Tonz Magonz]

If it makes the motor run the same way as factory , its a great price compared to Haltech..
Time to start looking.
Would the immobiliser defeat still need to be done with the Ms3x..?

Thanks for the ECU lessons too.!
I'm slowly learning...

No immo in the mega squirt. Depending on the price you pay for the std ecu. With no need to tune the ecu. You'll be adhead staying oe.

Do you think you could make one run on std ecu so easily?

In a mk3?

On a basic level I do. Installer ability is going to be a factor. I don't see it as being harder than making a MS from scratch. TBH even as a major part of my working life I have spent making looms and installing electronics. I would pick the OE gear over a 3rd party.

Looking at what the engine/any engine needs. Once there's a petrol pump in the picture, the only potential issues is adequate flow and pressure.

After that the ECU needs a number of grounds, power and ignition switching. The ECU has 2 plugs, essentially one goes to the engine for the ignition, injectors and sensors etc. The other into the car for the switching and control.

As long as you haven't been given a pile of scrap for looms, by the engine supplier. I don't think it could be so hard to do.

The diagrams are downloadable for a few euros. Here's the ones for the Polo as an example of what you get.

Hi Gavin,
I'm now looking for a low Km mk4 R32 motor with OE ECU and loom.

Are you able to quote a cost to disable any ancillaries not needed but keep those needed to run motor, cruise control and tacho ?

I would send ECU to you from Melbourne.

Regards Tony .

Hi Gavin,
Finally now back to working on the R32 install in my splitscreen kombi after building a car for Valla Spectacular..
Hope you are back to fighting fit ..

My original auto elec is unavailable until January so,unless someone is able to recommend a south east suburbs auto elec, I'm now looking to have a go at modifying the ME 7.1.1 ECU wiring to work within the kombi ..Are you able to advise where I should look to find the suitable wiring diagrams ..?

Cheers Tony

[Tonz Magonz]

Sorry...
I just saw the info you mentioned earlier..

[Tonz Magonz]

Being a bit lazy here but does anyone already have the ECU pin out info from another source..?
Happy to pay for the convenience.

Be best to go to erwin, but this should get you going.
