MS on an Ecotec 4
My current project is an Ecotec, can this system be tailored to a 4 cyl. turbo set-up? The engine is being converted to RWD in a roadster. I've always been a carb and distributor person so I've got to deal with the learning curve.

Re: MS on an Ecotec 4
Yes, MS can control fuel and spark for the Ecotec. Several have done it. I may put MS on my Saturn eventually.
Read these forums and the manuals and you should be able to get a handle on it.

You may want to use a 2.0L LSJ or LNF crank...or even the LE5 (2.4l). They all come with a 60-2 tooth reluctor wheel on the crank.
If you don't want to use one of the L61 (2.2L) cranks, IDK how you would get an RPM siganl...but I would assume you could get it form the ICM.
If you us the MS2 extra code, there is some code that will read the 6+1 gm reluctor. IDK how well it work though. You might have to add a second coil dirver to fire both coils in the cassette, but if you are luck, the ICM will take a normal gm DIS signal.
