Title: adjustable map sensor
Post by: polkcountysfinnest on December 25, 2006, 01:34:17 AM

hey every one i am new to this site but not new to the jeep world here is a couple pics of the adjustable map sensor that i built. I plain on using a turbo on mine so i figured i see how this thing works out for me before i move to a stand alone unit, like the megasquirt that is talked about so much on this site. It seems like a very good box and heck for the price you cant beat it.

Here's what i started out with a few parts form the loacl radio shack

instead of using the termal strips like i have seen so many times before i tried using a project box to house it in. Now i can mount it in the cab and adjust on the fly

This bread board came with the project box. All of the components can be sodered to this.

i also picked up these plugs for the power wires so it make for a nicer installation

i also put these LED's in there for looks the green one shows that i am runing the adjustable part of the circuit and the red one shows that i am just running the stock set up. Th e toggle switch is what is used to switch back and forth
