The FOUR Megasquirt Rover V8 MS2X Kits all are 'Engine Specific' and contain everything required for a complete installation.
When we say 'Engine Specific' - it means that every part is designed to fit the Specific V8 Engine version in question - Perfectly !
If you haven’t already we strongly suggest you read the 'Tab' 5th down on the Left called
‘Which Kit to Choose ?’
The section is designed to help to understand the key differences between MS1X & MS2X filling in gaps & answering
questions and helps guide you towards choosing the most suitable Megasquirt V8 System for your V8.
Even then, we would still suggest you ring & have a proper chat with us & complete with a list of questions or queries !
Just as MS1X customers hate wiring & MS2X Customers are no different, and you to will love the Plug ‘n Play MS2X Looms !
Looms also come complete with their own built in 'Relay' & 'Fuse' box, plus a 'Master Fuse' too, giving serious protection.
The MS2X Kit Looms are professionally made Plug'n Play wiring looms, with only 7 wires to connect - These are listed below.
(PLUS Optional ‘Extra’ wires - ‘Tacho’ connection, & also a Lambda Plug should you - or is that
Have to - run 'Cats’ etc.)
The 7 Wires are your 'Switched Live' - We would recommend this is to your 'Ignition Switch' (Details in the Manual).
Fuel Pump 'Positive' wire. (If you are converting from a 'Carb' system you will need one of our High Pressure Fuel Pumps.)
The MS2X Looms Main 'Battery Positive' cable - Which goes to your 'Battery Positive' Terminal.
Then the MS2X Looms Main 'Negative' cable, Bolts onto the rear of your Cylinder Head.
Lastly, there are then 3 coloured wires for you to connect to your 'TPS' (Throttle Position Sensor)
Everything else is via Brand New fully labelled Plugs. When you have done the above - That's it - Your new Megasquirt MS2X Wiring Loom installation is finished !.
The 4 Differing MS1X Kits are dependent on your V8 engine variant - Identified below should you be unsure.
'V Belt' Engines are easily identified having more than 1 x Belt on the front - 2 sometimes even 3.
'Serpentine' Engines have just one Wide 'Grooved' belt that wraps around every pulley, also these have a Distributor & a Silver Plenum
'GEMS' engines are also 'Serpentine', but have no distributor, and also have Black coloured Plenums
'THOR' engines have 'Banana' Shaped Inlet Manifolds on the top of the engine
