Ea82t Dissys
Ea82t Dissys
i have a EA82T (3 plug ecu) and i have a Microtech LT10. My dissy has the four wires coming out but the problem i am having is the computer has been set to read a crank angle and the cam angle from the dissy but i only have one pulse out. When the engine was fitted they bypassed the signal and had it wired to the dissy like a point set up.
Is my dassy wanked? or does the earlier one only send out the single pulse(crank angle) The Microtech came off a car that had the 4 plug ecu so are the dissys different?
I just need to know so that i can either get a later dissy or send this one and the ECU down to Microtech and get it reset. My cars off the road so the quickest option would be better but i am not willing to bodge it i want it all done right..
cheers..

Hi steff...i answered your gearbox q,s on the buggy forum...Dubcrazy wrote:thought as much, so anyone got a later dissy they want to sell me?
i am guessing they fit with no issues
steff............................
Dont worry about getting another dissy,your one will do
To make the micro tech see your dizzy you need to install a 1k pull up resister
the early dissy gives a sine wave..and the late dizzzy gives a digital square wave
The 1 k pull up resister will turn your sine wave into a readable signal.
12v to one side of the resister when ignition is on..and send the other side of the resister to the trigger side of the coil...and you WILL have a signal which will trigger your ecu..DONE
secondly...this is only the beginning of your ecu install....you will have to install a trigger disc to give you a pulse sinc so the ecu know where your crank is at...its a little complicated but you will get there...
to make an ea82t go hard...you only need the factory ecu and disconnect the over boost switch and the zero boost switch then connect a 200cc - 300cc holden injecter v6=200cc 5.7=300cc.. it really does not matter as long as its 200cc or 300cc or somewhere in between,and have the 7.5 psi overboost switch activate the injecter,it will go linear and that is exactly what you want.....walla...fit the extra injecter in the centre of your pod filter..and this will bring you up to around 140hp - 150hp..as long as your engine is volumetrically efficient..cheers

Air intake from boost threshhold to redline isnt linear, and neither is fuel requirements.
If you want extra fueling, use a power trasistor triggered by the factory injectors to power the auxilary injector with a duty cycle that is proportional to the rest.
Id also be a little weary of injecting fuel anywhere before the throttle plate, and definately wary of injecting it before the airfilter

i have to say Scoobidoo's idea seems a little scary but the advice i have had from him in the past has been very indepth and very helpfull so i would say this would be to.
Right now i am just intrested in gettign the ECU all hooked up and working, then when any bugs have been worked out i will start on extra power.The engine has been totaly rebuilt from top to bottom so its nice and strong. To be honest i am not chasing massive power as the set i have in my car it will become unusable. Before the rebuild it dyno'd at 112Bhp at the wheels and that was enough to be able to give VT clubsports (225kw) a scare over the standing quarter. I have used VL turbo injectors (260cc) insted of the standard subaru and along with the ECU i am fitting a 90psi rising rate mappassi fuel reg.
We are hoping for around the 150Bhp mark and untill i drive it i dont know if i want to go anymore. Before the rebuild it was a total arse to drive in the wet with the back trying to constently over take the front so we'll have to see how it goes now.

If you tigger the fuel supply for the extra injector from the factory ecu is not linear,so,you wont get want you want from the factory ecu injector trigger,be as weary as you want..then maybe i should be as sarcastic as you want ..not that i am..but metophorically....the amount of no-it-alls on forums exceeds their ability to make something work.
You want proportionally controlled injecter duty..and you will get a pathetic proportionally controlled power increase
anyone else who wants larger increase,s..go linear for your full throttle /cfm requirements
I have been hands on inhouse dyno improvements for 30 yrs...and i still dont know enough
There are 2 schools at work here..the theory..and the reality...
With respect Suparoo..i have watched you over the last 5 years, from some one asking q,s on ea 82t,s to some one who source,s all their info off USMB and quote,s the trends back here...i knew you when you knew little on these engine,s...but i also respect your highly organised ability to keep people informed on the forgotten ea82t...
you are meticulous and thorough in your analogy,s ...cheers to you...
ANYONE PLEASE COME BRING YOUR AFTERMARKET ECU FITTED STI WRX UP AGAINST MY EA82T and i WILL shame your sorry ass.......
This is what sucks about forums..constantly being challenged on proven knowledge...
Its sitting in the back of a Baja, highly cut down beetle with fiberglass panels. nothing to them hence the power to weight is fantastic! Running 9lb of boost to get that figure with a really good over all power curve..steptoe wrote:hey steff, what is this motor in ? With your user name sounds like it may be replacing Hitlers revenge type stuff ? What boost pressure was the engine using to get the 112 WHP?

By crude i was mainly referring to the injector in the pod filterSCOOBIDOO wrote:Crude is something a women would say when you have a fat.....crude is what is required at 7000rpm
I didnt say that an extra injector doesn't work, i simply gave my opinion on ways it could be improved.
Un-intentionally, my fuelling idea was more suited to the 4 plug ecu,.. RPM + Air Flow + Fuel Map = Fuel Injected
I simply forgot you were takling about the 3 plug ecu,... RPM + Fuel Map = Fuel Injected (which is kinda irrelevant seeing Steff has a programable LT10 ecu)
I wouldnt go as far as to say that.SCOOBIDOO wrote:some one who source,s all their info off USMB and quote,s the trends back here
Yes i read and relay information between the forums, but this is bad why?
If you want to discuss fuelling requirements, or flame me further, send me a PM
Sorry to have upset you

Yes but it also turns the inlet tract into a bomb if the engine back fires and ignites fuel upstream of the throttle .
You don't want to get caught on a public road with anything injecting raw petrol upstream of its throttle/s .
Cold start injectors are a bit crude and usually have no regulation , ie they are on or off and switched by a water temp sensing probe/relay .
You can do a bit with the std system provided you don't mind testing (properly) alterations to AFM and throttle switches (the open throttle one) - and larger injectors of course .
Actually I'm just starting to look into slightly larger electrically compatible (resistance value) hose tail injectors , I think the 3 plug MPFI-T system doesn't use an injector dropping resistor so the native injectors must be saturated (high resistance) ones .
A Nissan minded associate has offered me a set of 280Z Turbo injectors which are supposed to be ~ 265-280cc low resistance , US boards reckon these are an easy upgrade in EA82T's though they probably ment 4 plug ECU ones .
I think I still have a set of Nissan FJ20T injectors which I think are same as above though 370 odd cc flow rate . The closer to std you can use means the lesser the fibbs you have to tell to the factory computer so lesser compromises .
A little how ya goin but slightly larger squirters with slightly less rail pressure can help but spray patterns still need to be acceptable .
I stay well clear of rising rate regulators like the Malpasi , all factory systems use 1:1 regulators .
Your calls , cheers A .

full throttle supply in all carbs is upstream of the throttle plates
Maybe you could hook up with ben some time...and watch a sunset..

Which is sorta why I did not include an intercooler on my EA82T LPG unit. Already had one backfire due to excited driving on weak valve spring and the bonnet copped a thump from the underside when the turbo inlet pipe tried to go skywards. My gas guru took a few hits to his intercooled 351 LPG turbo before he learnt not to intercool draw through applications
