I was already planning on going with the ms2 v3 board with the newer chip. 

how about this waste spark coil here:

and this crank trigger wheel 

http://www.034motorsport.com/p...d=454

altho it just occured to me that that is made to fit a 16v with vbelts, and that doesnt quite agree with my plan to do the serpentine belt conversion. hmmm.  

this fuel rail,

Im still dont quite understand the injectors thing. stock 1.8t injectors do not look at all like they will fit down the tiny holes that the 16v injectors are in.

are you saying that those holes are just a cup and can be removed to make way for the digifant cups?

anyway, I found these at URST, think they might be what I need?

and looking at those, I dont see how that fuel rail will attach to them.  

what kind of wideband o2 sensor do I need? shouldnt I just need the sensor and not all the extra stuff?

what fuel pressure regulator should I go with? the only one listed on 034 is a 5bar. I got the impression that megasquirt preferred a lower pressure FPR, but I cant remember where I saw that....


EDIT: moved parts list to the bottom of the original post.

still need to pick out the exact FPR, piles of assorted wiringbits, maybe figure out some sort of idle air control solution, and on and on and on....




thanks for all the useful information. I have a lead on the stock 1.8t injectors, fuel rail and throttle body. Im going to modify my original post with my parts list and change it as I get things bought. 

what do you mean by "injector service" ?

I have an 92 8v digifant motor in the corner of my garage. Ill chek it out and see if I can get the old cups out. nothing wrong with reusing them right?

thanks for the tip on the jegs hose. I was thinking about that last night. that stuff looks perfect.

as for the wideband, do I need a controller or can I just get a sensor and depend on the megasquirt ecu to interperet its signal? I dont understand why they sell these wideband sensors all with controllers. what is there to control? its a SENSOR!

  

also: do I need an exaust gas temp sensor or will a good wideband o2 sensor be good enough?

Wow looks good!
