A Customer is wanting to put an LNF in his Sonic7. From my information we need a wire harness that deletes the Body Control Module BCM. Can any one help?

 

tell that customer its not going to happen

 

Standalone

 

Building the harness is not the obstacle, it's any interfacing the PCM does with it via the CAN bus.

I would contact Lyndon Wester of wester's garage. He's done a good bit to decode this pcm. He may be able to help you get rid of the nessicary programming issue.

 

Thanks, but he could not help.

 

you're gonna need a big ass box of aspirins

 

As BTF said the problem isnt a harness to delete the BCM, its getting the ECM to work without the info from the BCM and being able to access the ECM, the BCM is the "gateway" its the module that control all communication over the network. It would likely be easier to integrate the BCM into vehicle and weed out all the unnecessary circuits than it would be to get rid of the BCM

 

We need a smaller intercooler, the stock SS is to big. Can some one tell me the stock lNF CFM's are needed for the new intercooler.

 

This is why I love the Cobalt community (sarcasm, I am really starting to hate the Cobalt Community). Rather than keeping your ******* mouth shut, because you have nothing to contribute, you bash and hate. Shut the **** up and go your own way.

OP: I am assuming a standalone would be the best option, though more expensive I would feel it would be easier than trying to hack out the BCM, or trying to integrate the BCM.

 

i totally agree, alot of these guys a total aholes.

 

Is there any standalones that can control a DI car?

Please do not overlook my question above? ^^^^^^^^^^^

BTW we "think" we have figured out the Direct Injection / engine wire harness solution for our swap. I know we have heard that before. Our contact says it will work. We shall see. It looks promising

 

what area do you have for a FMIC ? i can take a look at a few sources i have to see what you can work with.. you'll need to tack on some custom brackets or just make some brackets using some standard L brackets from home depot

it looks like you have room for a 12 wide by 11 high idk how deep maybe 3.5" or so since it looks like you have alot of depth in the front grill area

if you can get some better sizes that would help..

also if you get the area of your opening and how much room outside of the grill area you have then you can detemine what you can use for cores/ endtanks ..

that place should be able to help you out once you take some dimensions

that could also help

 

any pics of this project?

arent sonic 7's for kids?

 

then again all my comments are assuming it's a front mount engine which it could rear engine car lol like an atom

 

Talk with QwikRdline he has done some race LNFs in the past with a custom setup so no BCU connection was needed.

 

No pics yet.

QwikRdline? Do you have his name right? Cannot find him on the forum?

 

talk to the guys that build the ariel atom. they currently are using an lnf motor in some of their cars.

 

Qwikredline, sorry missed the "e"

Qwikredline is a great guy and knows his stuff. He built a lot of coblats for GM including the time attack cobalt. If anyone knows the stuff you need to know it is him.

 

All of the Atoms Ecotec are LSJ

 

If you do end up getting this running (which I'm sure you will), please post up anything you can share. LNF interests me on a couple swap projects.

 

on one of the atoms i seen an lnf turbocharged unless they just put a turbokit on an lsj

 

they put the hahn stg5 turbo kit on the LSJ
