Re: Help...I'm stuck in wiring hell! (gtschallenge)
fwiw you would probably loose some power by yanking the knock box.. If you are staying CIS-E then you have alot of wiring that you are going to leave. I have a mk1 GTI that i stripped of everything and re-wired from scratch, only thing that is there from the stock ignition system is the ICU (its got a knock box from a 16v, but wasnt there stock). Here's a diagram that i had written up to wire it all:
once our car is all said and done we'll probably run it in GTS challenge

I'm in the process of a complete bare chassis rebuild of my 88 GTI 16v race car. I want to eliminate as much of the wiring mess as possible. I plan to stay with the CIS-E, but there seems to be a ton of wiring that I hope to do away with. First, the knock sensor ignition. Can It just be eliminated? Does anyone run MSD ignition? |
