Ring gaps would have been set within 'standard' tolerances... What causes the expansion, increased combustion temps?

.004" per inch of bore is the rule of thumb for standard engines.
Therefore, my 202 being approx 3 9/16" bore would be .014" ring gap in the ball park.
But I'm running .020" on the top compression and a gapless second ring because I race it. It's not turbo'd.

But I forget?
Ask this bloke (Wayne) http://www.gmh-toran...ser/5368-2elcs/
I went through this with 2ELCS and my engine builder buddy some time ago.
He will have it written down somewhere I'd reckon? He gapped the rings himself.
His is a 202 and he will be turboing it later.

After i rebuild the engine i found out that the 18rg sump doesn't like holding oil in the engine while doing fast right hand corners, when i did the motokhana the oil light came on a couple of times. I backed off straight away but obviously too late... Mains looks new still *shrug*. Ill baffle up the sump this time

So far i think the EFI conversion has cost him
megasquirt ecu = <$400
Throttle bodies = $80
Manifold, including the webber flanges = $200
VL fuel pump = $140
Swirlpot = $80
throttle cable = $30
And loads of my time for free .
Total = $930ish but hopefully the sound of quad throttles, priceless

It started first kick tonight, gotta be happy about that . Took it for a drive and it ran like a bucket, turns out i only set ignition to the itb load setting . Autotune had nfi whats going on, 90% of the engine's load happening in 10% of the table. Just waiting for laptop to change then ill give it another go.

And does it handle coil packs??
Was toying with the idea of running a Delco 808 on ignition only with a 3 bar map censor to run coil packs on a 202 running off crank angle censor holes in the flexplate.......
But it all got to hard and complicated just thinking about it.
Is the MS nice and simple and strait foward??
Cheers.

The software (tuner studio) is awesome to play with, very easy . You can do up to 8 COP and sequential ignition with a un-modified megasquirt 3 + ms3x board. If you want to keep it simple just buy the pre-made megasquirt 3+extra board for something like US$640, or if your a tight ass like me you can DIY it.
Ah, so they're not actually independent runners, there is a common plenum for a MAP sensor to work with. Makes life easy!
Yep, the only problem is that the MAP signal is still poor. I have it running fairly well, i tried doing a bit more tonight and went backwards, luckily i saved the last tune .

Only seems to handle a 2.5 bar map censor though, that limits me to around 22psi boost
Interesting.
Cheers.

As of this afternoon, we gave it a custom paint job to make it look like it belonged until he finishes preping for paint .

Next weekend i might do a bit on the Monaro (*Gasp*). I picked up a 05 Subaru Liberty GT for its engine (long story) and it came with nice leather seats. Might see if they can be made to fit...
