You say this thing runs on code? Sounds like magic to me. I just plug in gizmos.

well, it still won't be as good for you since you're still batch injection.

Why am I not running sequential injection? Did I not ask for it? Should I have?

Looks like I have to modify the injector harness? Ehhh.

I do have this Vishnu dual feed fuel rail sitting around that I got for free. Do I want to hook that sucker up? Actually, this one is probably for a 1.8 car. Why haven't I sold this for money?

A friend of mine dumped all his Miata parts on me at one point (which is how I got the RC550s) so I need to go through and sell a bunch of this stuff. Can probably make up the cost of the MS.

I was just thinking I have the Bipes and O2 clamp to disconnect before installing the new ECU. Anything to note on that other than reconnect the wires properly? I probably should practice my soldering. Work starts after this weekend as I will have a month to get the thing running and given my facility with cars I will need it.

Is this the VTPS I need/will it fit?

I think this is from a 1.8 car.

Ah, I searched and it seems the 1.8 TPS does not bolt on directly to the 1.6 throttle body.

Gah! Things are never easy.

So, apparently the 1.6l auto throttle body will just bolt right up and the VTPS from that will connect to the factory connector?

Hm, why didn't I just buy the Wells TPS201? Seems readily available and cheap. I can file things. Anyway.
