I am using a "special" blower. It is technically a supercharger, not a turbo. It is a converted electric blower now pulley driven. (built by me.) It looks just like a mini ATI procharger.

I guess I'm alittle emberassed by it's previous use. It was a pool line blower.

The specs from the original ...

Wow! thank you.

That clears things up signifigantly.

I think I will try to use Speed-Density first with the MAP sensor detecting the little boost (6psi) I will be using.

If I have any problems with low or crazy signals at low load, I'll try the Alpha-N setup since I will then have a MAP sensor ...

I thought a TPS was required to direct the injector(s) duty cycle.

Ex: at 50% throttle they would only be injecting half as much fuel then WOT. determined by throttle position not MAP pressure.

I thought a MAP sensor was used to determine mainly the timing curve. (espescially in a boosted ...

Minimum sensors needed.

So I've done a bit more homework. But I can't seem to narrow it down.

(idea) Project recap: 8hp Kohler single cylinder engine (K181). 6psi supercharger. MicroSquirt running fuel and ignition. I've successfully gotten 37hp (10hp block) to the ground on alcohol garden tractor before using a carb. But ...

That kinda clears it up. :?

When it comes out, will there be a more detailed explaination as to how to hook it up and use it? That will help.

I understand the relay board to be a power distribution point directed by the MS-II box. Like the relay panel in my ford truck (the ECU tells my fuel pump ...

Microsquirt Access Board?

I'm getting really amped up about purchasing and playing with a Microsquirt on my little project. I've read through nearly the whole MegaManual and everything I can on the MicroSquirt. I plan on using it on a single cylinder supercharged engine.

But my brain must be overloaded. I can't seem to wrap ...
