Name: William Turner
Vehicle: 2002 Dax Rush
Engine: SD1 3.9 Rover V8, with 285 cam & mildly ported heads
Injection: TVR 390 spec - enlarged plenum throttle, Jaguar 230cc/min injectors, rising-rate regulator.
Description: Had intended to fit MS to the previous (ex TVR 390) 3.9, but it grenaded itself (crank snapped in 3 following a main cap pulling out the block ). So, new engine and either a remapping of the existing ECU, or go for the Megasquirt. I chose the latter
Following wideband tuning it's now running well - just needs leaning out at a couple of points on the map for stoichiometric cruising.
