I don't know what the rate is to be honest. It's one of these:
http://www.drdrift.com.au/onlineshop/product_info.php/products_id/103?osCsid=r0veg70lvs738ibmbskvirucp2

Though I only paid 50 bucks for it.

As for the boost, I'm only aiming for about 10 psi, so doubt I'll hit that wall anyway.

You have a great deal of useful info about all this.. you should write a fordmods tech doc (or use your own site) and detail your work.. Capa have made a fortune from people not knowing what you've learned..

I have been detailing my work on installing EL computer to stealth mounting the supercharger etc.. so yes, I will detail any changes I make to the ECU as well.

have a lot of learning to do in that regard though.

I found this today..
http://www.moto-one.com.au/performance/fuelinjection.html

Its not ford specific, but it's pretty good at explaining what some of the tables mean and general theory.

Masier,

If it were me, i'd look at putting an EL ECU into it, so you can use the EL Tickford LPG binaries (or at least the timing tables from them). If you use the EL Tickford binary you can look at wiring up the Fuel Select input so you can switch timing maps for petrol/lpg just like the factory setup.

All XH's are EEC V.

They do work well with aftermarket LPG systems like Impco.

Are you sure? I thought that the base model 6 had the eec-iv. How I can check for sure??

hmmm, dunno about XH, but this is interesting.

http://www.fordmods.com/forums/ef-el-ecu-catch-codes-t30186.html Lists 33TB as an XG XR6 ecu..

And this software:
http://www.pcmx.net/pcmx/dl/

lists it as a supported ECU with provided files.

How cool would it be to get scannerpro http://scannerpro.net/

working with ECC V ECU's..

the EL dash can get the info.. why does that not mean it can work with scannerpro?

Don't believe the airbox cover. They all run thermo fans and have a knock sensor.

It'll be EEC V. The EL Tickford LPG ECU has EEC IV on it's sticker, but again, it's EEC V.
I think it's because the true EEC V ECU's should have 104 pins (e.g. EF/EL V8's), where the XH and EL I6's have 60 pins.

Is there any reason this wont work with EEC-IV?? All the hardward on the moates site says EEC-IV/EEC-V??
Is there any reason i cant tune an EA ECU? Cheers

All Aussie EEC's up to the AU were EECIV, and the EECV's were actually 4 and a halves, 256 vs 56k bins.

A small update: i received my first sample of the locally built J3 chips and hope to test it this weekend. It can switch up to 8 tunes!

To answer the questions...

an EL ECU will do the trick. will be very easy to get it running.

if you want to disassemble the binary of an EA ECU to produce a definition, the hardware and software will work. if not, plug in an EL ECU as suggested. they are cheap and it works already. why the stupid question? its already been answered!

Cheers for the reply.
the only reason im not running an EL ECU in my EA is because it doesnt have smart-lock. Also, i have a manual EA, with an EB series 1 non-smartlock manual ECU.

I have an EL ECU running my ED motor with log manifold and it hunts a tiny bit at idle, but other than that it is better than the original for low end torque....

Once it's all ready, I'll be putting the blown EL motor in, BBM and all (though the bbm switch will be locked no doubt) and I'll be trying a modified Xr6 bin as detailed by Galapogos01 (who really should still make a tute for all the steps he took to fix his hunting problem including everything from plugging in the hardware to editing the table with lots of screenshots.. icon_smile.gif )

DJ Brown, I didn't have smartlock either.. so I picked up a smartlock bypass for 80 bucks on ebay.. works a treat.

problem is where would you start when sorting probs.

Here is your first step, plug in EMU, Ostrich, Pull dump, go to 0X 22000 and start from there, oh sorry true EEC-IV is 0X 2000, start building your def file.........6 months at least you have something that kinda resembles a GUI tuning tool.
