Hey if you're willing to do it I can use them. It will speed up assembly for me by a lot.

Yes! I can work with those. The first picture is just a little better than the second and I can read the resistors values easily.

I would have to wait either for day light (optimistic scenario) or summer time day light (realistic scenario) or my brother visits me with something fancy (pessimistic scenario, probably would not happen any day soon) iso 400 8M under a 100W desk light you cannot read resistor values, a better phot...

Thank you so much. That would be great.
If you could break them up into quadrants or by what each section is responsible for it would serve me and be great for the wiki too.

Frankenso wiki should be pointing at http://rusefi.com/images/Frankenso/ unless that's the folder you are already looking at. Do we have anyone with an assembled board and something like Canon 1D? I did look through the wiki but actually found a better shot in the forums. Macro shots with a Canon 1...

If anyone has some high resolution shots of an assembled 0.4 board I'd appreciate it if you'd post them here.
It would speed up the assembly process for me.

I found one of the front of the board and it's about 2.5mb but it isn't high enough resolution to read the wording on the components.

My intention is too build a harness for the car so I avoid hacking into the existing harness and can switch back to the stock ecu if needed.
I've ordered solder paste as well. Hand soldering each component will take forever without it.

Board Recieved!

Started work tonight but it's tedious stuff.

I may be wrong but I think.... C16 = engine rpm A16 = atmospheric pressure from ecu (usdm ecus had a daughterboard with a pressure sensor) A20 = torque control (during shifts the ecu drops timing to soften the shift) The USDM tcus took atmospheric pressure into account when shifting and used differe...

Sorry about that. Its in Fig 12. They show the TCU connections and the connections to the ECU.

Thank you for the http://www.alcyone.org.uk/ssm/tcureverse.html link! Great stuff.

I have a 1995 SVX. Thanks

Do you have a schematic that shows the TCU? We might be able to do a reasonable guess about what signals it needs. A very nice and intelligent gent from England had some level of success reverse engineering the tcu and ecu. Heres a link to the work he did on the tcu http://www.alcyone.org.uk/ssm/tc...

I may have just purchased a Frankenso kit. Just sayin

I do have a TCU and there is some communication that happens between the TCU and ECU. Something to do with load and rpm I believe. But I think some people have had luck disconnecting it. Solder paste won't be an issue. I'll find something suitable on Amazon. The SVX does have a separate ignitor. Bas...

I'm going to stop asking questions and bothering you nice folks and spend tomorrow studying rusEFI.
Maybe organize my thoughts a little more.

Ok I'm gonna throw down the gauntlet now.
I'm only interested if this will also support the addition of a turbo down the line.

Also I'm not as smart as I sound.
Mostly just a hobbyist with no formal training and a little education. I know a little about everything but not a lot about one thing.

Does having a hot air station and prior skill in populating boards count? I like these keywords. https://www.tindie.com/products/russian/frankenso-04-diy-kit-/ I didnt say I liked it. :D But it looks like if I want to try this system there really isnt another way. Before I pull the trigger does it ...

I'm located in northeastern CT near Rhode Island. I am only aware of two un-soldered boards in CT, your chance to be the first one! EG33 is the one with over-heating issues right? In Lemons a Forester with EG33 (three or four of these) did not do well :( The guy who build my Lemons miata engine use...

The cam sensor can be found on the drivers side lower camshaft.

The "teeth" so to speak are molded on the camshaft itself.

There are pics of its location in this thread http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/showthread.php?t=39128

Thanks for the fast reply! I'm located in northeastern CT near Rhode Island. The Eg33 has two crank angle sensors and a cam angle sensor. COP with a separate ignitor. There are a couple svx forums to check out. Here's a link to a specific post on the workings of the sensors. http://www.svxworldforum...

Hello from CT in the US. The Subaru EG33 was only found in the 92-97 SVX and only mated to an automatic transmission. There are many people including myself looking for a standalone ECU solution that is open source or at least less than $600 dollars. However I we need full sequential injection and s...
