DSM = FWD
Pony = RWD
Fact of the matter is Pony = carb. NO ECM. Making tuning easier? I'd have to wire in a '95 Elantra harness, and make that work with an '89 Sonata harness, for the sake of "simplicity" incorporate an ECM into a stock Pony harness?!?
Poubelle. It takes 3 wires to keep a Pony running (Spikie can atest to that) and I intend to keep it that way.
I hate EFI. Every bit of it. Even MFI, which sucks because the metering plate gets caught up in residual carbon and oil deposits (I've owned enough VW to atest to that). I don't enjoy some stupid VLSI circuit telling a solenoid when to open and close, a goddamned 02 sensor (which I will have, purely to keep an eye on the stoichometric readings, especially after boost) gathering readings from a confused TPS and CPS which then work with a bunch of EGR solenoids to produce something that can all be incorporated within a well tuned carburator, using purely mechanical mechanisms...
I believe in mechanical purity. I have a very good understanding of electronics and computer systems (which is what I am studying... for the last 6 years)
yet this notion of something other than pure analog feedback deciding when my engine should do this and when it should do that honestly disgusts me.
Also, if you've seen recent pictures of the 4G63 swap into my Pony, I've had quite enough BS with wiring... I'm gonna post up some side by side pics of a stock 1987 Pony 1400L compared to a 1985 Pony 1600GLS fitted with a 4G63... TOO MANY WIRES! Too many single point of failures.
EFI = Bullshit. Sorry to offend 99.995% of ppl here, but I'm gonna go the carburated way.
And make it work, the way God indended it to.
