S2000 engined MGA

[mgainaussie]

Much to the disgust of the purists, I have built an MGA with Honda S2000 engine and gearbox..it has a Ford rear end with a LSD. The engine of the S2000 appears to be running a bit rich, with a small amount of smoke after taking off..not a lot to worry about. I don't have much modern engine technology, and was wondering if there is a simple way to lean the engine back? Apart from this, she goes like the clappers, and annoys the hell out of those who think it's an old car!

I am on the Gold Coast, and if there are any tuners out there who can help, please let me know.

What ECU are you using? If stock the problem is elsewhere. If aftermarket, let us know what kind?

What ECU are you using? If stock the problem is elsewhere. If aftermarket, let us know what kind? Standard ECU that only utilises engine functions.

Tried the ye old map whack / ECU disconnect to reset option?

Cheapest alternative: VAFC2 (not recommend)
Cheapest ECU piggyback option: Greddy E Manage ultimate
Best ECU Option: haltech 1000, AEM 1052U V1 or V2.

Getting it tuned on the Gold Coast? Pete @ ProTorque did my S2000 along with a few others in SE QLD. Piece of advice, don't use Matt Spry from PITS.
