You can run with just a fuel chip. You can increase the boost but just need to be sensible as the timing on a standard ezk is quite harsh meaning you may run into ping at peak torque if you up the boost too much. 10-12psi will be safe enough.

You can reuse the head bolts but if you want new for peace of mind I have them in stock https://www.classicswede.co.uk/B200_..._15922652.aspx You can just run the fuel chip if keeping to moderate boost but longer term I would fit a daughterboard and run both chips |

Morning fellas,
I'll go with the daughter board kit and run both ecus chipped...in for a penny and all that! Classic swede I'll be putting my order in over the weekend most likely. Are you open to call or just online?

Ok so the aux shaft from the b23a is now installed in the b230ft.
I'll fit the distributor tomorrow once it's clean. The b23a system had a single lead coming from coil and a single black wire coming from engine loom. Am I being stupid but how does the ezk system work? How is it advanced/retarded just by voltage?

Ok thanks.
I'm posting an image which shows some of my wiring...what I'm interested in knowing is this... So the fuel pump relay is white and near the bottom. The red/yellow wire goes to the fuse box (then tank pump) and the fat side to another connector. I believe the red/yellow to power main pump eventually. But what else does the black (ground?), green, green/white wires do? There is also a fat yellow I that connector which goes to another connector. This has a fat blue coming to it too which comes from the fused side of the fuse box. Thoughts? Thanks.
