Advice on install

Post by jesterscorpion »

Here is what I have and what im wondering is what all else will i need to run the MS-I v2.2 witht the V3.0 chip as a full stand alone (no factory ecu) in a 97 eclipse GS with the 420A non turbo. I am adding a turbo to this car.
BLOCK
Hot Tanked
Decked
New Freeze Plugs
Bored and Honed +.20 to even up the bores
JE 10.5:1 pistons
Crower Rods
Clevite Main and Rod Bearings
ARP Main Studs
Gates Timing Belt
Mechanical Tensioner
Melling Oil Pump
New OEM Water Pump
Underdrive Pully

HEAD
Race Port and Polish
SS Valves
Crane Stage 2 Turbo Grind Cams
Crower Springs
PT LIfters and Rockers
ARP Head Studs
OBX Adjustable Cam Gears
Felpro MLS gasket


AIR FUEL EXHAUST
OBX Intake Customized and matched to head and TB
Modern Performance 60mm Throttle Body
AEM Fuel Rail
Vortech SFMU
Walbro 255 Pump
OBX Turbo Manifold
1000cc injectors (still need to buy)
2.5"i.d. Exhaust with high flow cat and resonator.

TURBO
Prolly going with a Garrett GT-40R

MANAGEMENT
MS-I V2.2 with the V3.0 chip
MSD Coil
Zeitronix Wideband O2 with display
10.5mm Plug Wires
MSD high output coil
EGT Probe
Ign. control from a 4G63
Air temp sensor
Coolant temp sensor

I know that I already have a wire from the MS-I that goes to my crank sensor but what do I do about my cam sensor.
I know that I will have to wire the VSS from the sensor to my Speedometer behind the dash, and that I will need the mopar voltage regulator.
Nything else that anyone can think of will be greatly appreciated, as I have read so many manuals and install notes that my brain is about to explode.

Ignore it.
