What you will find here: Intended to display minor modifications to my Westfield SEi, this blog now witnesses the two year rebuild (and more) after a major crash in October 2011. Have fun and feel free to add a comment at the end of any post.

Fusebox inlay

While working on the car, I became aware that I didn't tag the fuses. The relays are large enough to put a sticker on, but how to do with the small blades? I made this simple inlay with Microsoft Paint to cut out and next time I will put it inside the fusebox.
Cheers.

Emerald ECU running

Even with lots of preparation, some little mistakes when connecting the new Emerald ECU made that it didn't run as of first start. Some calls and emails later it ran. As mentioned elsewhere, only the ignition part, injection will be enabled later this year. The staff at Emerald is great and very helpful. The final test on the road revealed a fine running car with the same performance as with the quite aggressive Megajolt map. Further mapping will be done later.
The pic also shows the new fuse box. Fan and fuel pump are now controlled with the Emerald ECU. Concerning the fan, temperatures for on and off can be set individually. The pump runs for a few seconds, then stops until the engine is cranked. Two relays remain unsused for the moment. One will switch the high pressure fuel pump, the other one will connect the injectors and maybe also the coilpack.
The pic of the new fuse box with its cover in place is quite a clean appearance, especially compared to the old  fuse box .
Cheers.

Fusebox

You may laugh at the view of the actual fusebox, but during the four years I own the car, I already upgraded so many things... but not this little jewel. A new one is ready to be fitted and very much on the top of my tasks list.
Cheers.
