    Nissan trottle bodys on a Delorean

    I put Nissan throttle bodies on my DeLorean last year and thought I would post a few pics. I also made fresh new fuel rails.
    While I was at it I also changed all my fuel hoses to braded nylon.

    I like that setup because is removes the intake and W pipe. Was it hard to match mixture on both banks?

    Definitely a very clean looking setup. Looks easier to work on. Is it running as good or better than stock?

    I have been EFI for 13 or so years. Its was a night and day difference when I switched to EFI but my stock FI was not doing well at the time.
    It has ran great ever sense the switch and im always trying to tweak it to get a little more ummmff out of it. Adjustability of the timing was to me
    the thing that made it snappy and responsive over stock and the new throttle bodies just added to it. I need to dyno it again to see what it does now.

    I would have to test that. Right now I run the stock exhaust and would have to separate them and put 2 o2 sensors to check.
    I did check the exhaust idle and multiple rpm with a temp gun and a FLIR and they were around the same temp.
    Also they look like they have separate air in, but the IAC routed to the stock location should balance it.

    Interested in hearing more about your ignition setup

    Yes looks very nice! Interested in what you are doing for ignition and modifications to the stock timing.
    Thanks for sharing your project!

    Here is the megasquirt ignition setup I run now and for the past 13 or so years.
    I have a few timing profiles. Last week I just freshened all my timing stuff and made sure the crank said the same as the megasquirt as it changed a few deg over the years..

    Awesome! I always wanted to try something like this. Neat to see it done and done well by the O.G. EFI wizard.
