Anyone have this guide saved as all the pictures have gone?

Interested by pics too .

Tbh I don't think there will be another version saved somewhere else as there's not many people who have or will fit this.

Make sure the cable and connectors to the injectors are properly sized and connected/soldered. If wiring is weak, e.g. on a singe injector, you risk the injector to loose power, not performing enough, lean burn, high temperature inside cylinder and ruining the engine. I have the TC in the trunk of the Europa and behind the seats in the Spexige. On the programming side, there should be pretty good sample settings available. First step though is to know where your wheels are (which wheel ABS output is connected to which TC input Fr/Fl/Rr/Rl), you have to find that out yourself.

Hi,

 

Ask Carsten, ( member cs_ ) if he might share a login to his site. He has a lot of pictures and info (in German) on there. 

 

Info from Carsten:

In the left menu column klick on "!VX5 Blog"

Then select PAGE 052 from the upper pulldown menu.

You'll find the setup file in one link at the bottom of PAGE 052. It's the latest setup I developed. I am using it myself since then and lots of other drivers use it also. You only have to change the wheel diameters according to your wheels.

Did mount an extra clutch switch which triggers at another elongation of the pedal. Did not find a way to electrical connect to the oem one, seems to be some kind of electronics in it and did not want to hassle with the engine control unit.

"

I also fitted a new clutch switch, overall installation is quite straight forward. Only tricky part is getting cables through the sill.

 

BR,

Mattias

Hi ,pm me have some pics.

I have a question about the ethernet cable at the ABS. There are 4 pairs, (colured and white)

should you just cut of the white cables at the ABS? Not connect the white cables to each other on the ABS side.

But connect the white cables to each other to Race TCS side and connect to Race TCS? 

Then the white cables are not connected to anything?

De vita kablarna agerar som skärm och är därför bara kopplade mot jord i ena änden.

Where have you guys placed the control unit for the TCS and how have you attached it?

Doubble sided tape?

Hi Per,

 

I attached TCS to the back wall in the area between the seats (instead of the cup holder) with VELCRO.

 

 

 

 

I will send you a private mail within next week.

Best regards
