the map sensor is inside megasquirt and it gets the pressure from the vacuum block that I have connected to the ITBs

It's out of a 1st gen BP 1.8L engine. If you have a 1.6L DOHC you can cut the cam gear cover.

You are definitely not. If your car had some color it would be my favorite. ~jabs @ Mooneggs~

When you do the body work, I would fill all the mounting holes in the frame and remove all the brackets and add a little bondo and paint the engine bay with the body.

Awesome work man. I am inspired. I'd like to know where you put everything.

So today I took it to the dyno... Results: 124whp / 110wtq. Now, this is a completely stock engine with ITBs, 6* advance on the intake cam and a header back exhaust. That's not bad at all! I'm going to try to make the exintake cam mod work. If I make it work I think I can get to the 130whp+ mark no problems. Here's a couple of videos of the ITBs singing :D
