    hey guys,



    I recently got a JDM BIgport 4AGE motor. Now I got the motor and RWD alternator setup only, so no manifolds, ecu, loom, etc, etc......

    Now, iam trying to gather all the gear i need to install the motor.
    So,

    I have just bought a JDM RWD Loom and ECU off another user on this site.

    But, iam slightly confused with the whole AFM/MAP sensor setup. How do i know if i need a AFM or MAP sensor?
    What are the contributing factors? What parts do i need to get a hold of?
    Does it all depend on the ECU?????

    Please don't Flame me, iam just not sure........


    I also got a set of quad ITB with it, but no adapter plate. Do i Sell the ITB's and get a inlet manifold, or go down the Quad TB path?
    What would i need to make the ITB's work? Adapter plate, Aftermarket ECU???????? etc..........

    Any help/info is genuinally appriciated...........


    Oh, and the car will just be used for a daily pig.....

    thanks peoples,

    thanks,

    Joe

    sell the quads and buy a normal bigport rwd manifold.

    will be so much better for a daily and easy to use with your loom. and save $$ in conversion and fuel

    get the MAP sensor, thats what you need, and you will have the correct plug on the RWD loom for it.

    i have a map sensor if you need it, its in 4sale section. Came of my JDM bigport loom.

    not all the same biggo, not sure of differences but i tried a smallport one once (when i thought my original died) it didnt work, car didnt want to start at all, ecu reported map sensor troubles.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Maxhag @ May 12 2008, 12:59 AM) </div>
    Clean quads should sell for around $200-250, ive seen quads sell for $20 right up too $350

    But its usually "the worth of something second hand is only what the buyer/buyers are willing to pay".
