Title: need some tips
Post by: lilpooh21186 on March 14, 2010, 11:23:26 PM

Ok i have an idea but im not to electronic savy i the terms of solinoids and shit like so.

Basicly on my new build i will be using ectune for my EMS but i also want to make a homemade water meth kit a local shop guy turned me on to this idea using a washerfluid resivore only problem is he has to pull back wiper handle to engage spray. I know i need some type of ecu controled trigger to activate the pump but im not sure how to go about it. I want to use elecboost control with dual maps one for 7psi stock gate and another 12psi using secondary maps with meth injection. I know there are secondary events that can be controld via Certian condtions but how would i go about activating the pump. i was thinking Run power from the battery to the pump and mabey having ecu act as the ground But im honestly clueless about the shit so help a nog out.

Most of the ECU outputs are good for a very small current, nothing that would support a fuel pump.  Some of them will take half to most of a second about drawing closed the contacts on a common 30A Bosch relay, making that not ideal either.

I have a bag full of DC logic high speed 3A/60V switches from Opto 22 in my toolbox.  Similar to these, but in red and I have ~$3/per in them:

Use the ECU as the ground path to activate the SSR (solid state relay) and you'll be golden.
