    Can anyone confirm that i can do this to my agu using all AUM hardware? Got the lot on offer

    Thanks in advance

    OE mounting point for the EGT sensor is in the turbine housing pre-turbine. Though for ease you could mount it in the manifold collector.

    An AMK doesn't have sai pump.

    Pick up ECU # 06A906032HJ/HN for your stuff plus the rest of support components similar to what Nathan as to get for his engine.
    Or get your MBE992 connected!

    I can see why Nut20v is going with this as his 20v will be pushing big power, but I think its hardly cost effective for myself and potentially others that have almost finished there conversions using AGU management.

    The annoying bit now is finding a competent mapper to custom code an AGU in a mk2. I'm sure plenty will do it in a mk4 but less likely to find someone that will touch a mk2 20v :(..

    Does anybody have any suggestions as I really don't want it mapped without a rolling road session.

    Also does the ecu need a feed from the can bus hi/lo aswell as the k line and the positive/negative to map it?

    Big power is not a problem with any ECU. They get big power out of VR6 M3.8.1 and VR5 10v M3.8.5 ECUs and those do not even have a boost function!
    The problem with these is the early 1.8T M3.8.3 ECUs, use a PLCC44 eprom that needs to be socketed like a Aug 95 onward VR6 021906256 ECU. Some of the later 3.8.3 ECUs, ending with 018CG or CJ, are flashable but not readable unless the flash chip is removed and read in a programmer, with the right 200BB adaptor. Also without an emulator the mapping process is pretty time consuming. That is on perfect hardware, you have the hardware and connections not being done right many times, adding to frustration in delivering the calibration.
    Wide open dyno type mapping is one thing then there is all the part load stuff to refine as well. That can only be done on the road.

    Try Jabba or Stealth.

    No, that is just for crash and ABS messages to and from the Cluster. All of these can be turned off in the engine calibration,if the mapper has a well defined definition file.

    Does the loom need the both lambda's?

    The main one you need is the feedgas or wideband sensor (B1S1).
    You will not have the need for a catalyst so the CMS can be deleted. Bill will know what to do with the software to take care of this hardware omission.

    Come to another problem on the loom the N249 Turbocharger divert air valve it seems to control a lot of vacuums can this be deleted out or is it needed here is a picture

    The whole N249 valve, vacuum tank and one way valves can be deleted, especially as your car is not a S3/TT/LCR on a stock wee biddy K04 huffer. Bill will know what to do in the software to switch off the ECU driver that actuates that solenoid without and also stop the fault code associated with it.

    But until Bill does code out the N249 then have it electrically plugged in but you can bypass it out of the vacuum system.

    I dont have one to plug in and dont want to buy one so it wont stop it running then its being run in on bills dyno so he can do all that when its there.

    rig up the vacuum to the recirc from the turbo compressor or manifold and when at Bill he can tweak the file to get around the lack of hardware problem.

    Ah, that solves that then. I thought you were running it in on the road then driving down to Bill's. :thumbup:

    You must be getting closer to getting this beast mapped now!
