The fastest Nova in the world

Lol why you needs extra boost controlzzzzzz tbh I wondered too, but don't care as its your build and your plans etc so if it works it works.

shame nlr aren't looking at CAN I'd offer help if he wants etc

I asked that and said you offered but he totally brushed over the offer, he has other things he wants to roll out before the CAN
I have heard of these little Gizmo's that take an analogue voltage and put it out over CAN

Isn't that what one of your motec boxes are, the e88 or something?

Some time ago the MightyCarMods boys did a Subaru estate with an EJ36 engine (quad cam flat 6) with lots of Haltech modules in it. Seems to me these modules do something similar i.e. convert an analogue signal into a CAN signal. Having said that, I am under the impression not all CAN signals are interchangable and that you can't go mixing and matching CAN boxes of different makes.

The E888 is an expander, gives me a bunch more inputs, not that I needed them but it does take upto 8 thermocouple inputs which the Ecu can't do, so I'll be monitoring exhaust gas temps per cylinder.

Yeh I've seen the Haltech and racepak stuff use al separate little modules to make up a network, why I'm not too sure, seems a long way to do things.
Again my CAN knowledge is basic, but I believe as long as you can get the devices talking the same language at the same speed on the same network you can get anything to talk, it's finding those details that's a bit tricky.

Supergramps!

i read the manual for that and it implied you can drive some outputs over CAN too.

niek, you're right that not all CAN is equal, as there are speeds, addresses, data layouts and message lengths at hand, but with the sniffing tools like kvaser you can work it out fairly fast, or use the Internet as many are well geeked

Bens doing a fab job, see what I did there
Very happy with the drivers cell



Certainly going to feel a lot safer climbing into here than before

I bet that wasn't the easiest piece of tube he's ever shaped
