Interesting - so I could sell my Vitesse MAF and chip board and SMT6 to raise capital?

I guess that means that there is nothing else needed in front of the turbo but an air filter and you can vent the recirc valve to atmosphere?

What about my Zeitronix - does the Link setup support any sort of gauge setup to easily display boost/Air to fuel/EGT in the car?

It would be impossible for Link to support any sort of gauges.
But it's possible to retrieve any information from the Link via datastream.

There is the DisplayLink.

You do not need anything in front of the turbo, just an air filter. The BOV can be vented to the atmosphere. Can't tell you if you can raise capital by selling your MAF and SMT6, but you won't need it

I was going to get rid of my Zeitronix, but you need a converter for the wideband O2. I believe Link recommends the Innovate, but I already had the Zeitronix. I'll use it for display, but the Link has data-logging capability. I will eventually buy the display for the Link, but it's a bit pricey for my finances right now. It's a pretty cool little gadget:

I'm well aware of the DisplayLink

I think the Link will support some gauges. I know they have or had their own Knock gauge and AFR Gauge. Not sure about what type etc. Best to ask them directly.

I have the Dash Display. A good thing I like about it is it can be ready in direct sunlight. Alot of the others out there cannot. I had another type on a car once and without a shield, on a sunny day I could not see it. Maybe things have changed since then.

I love my Link. This new G4 system is amazing. So many functions. The thing I love the best is the Gear dependant boost control. It works really well.

Now lets see some tuning and results.

I just got the Subaru coil wiring diagram. Figured I'd post it in case anyone does a search in the future.

With the plugs on top:
Pin 1: Input 3&4
Pin 2: Ground
Pin 3: +12VDC
Pin 4: Input 1&2

You will also have to hook up the tach wire on the Link wiring harness. That goes to pin 2 of the red 4 pin coupler under the dash. The Porsche wire is green/black.

I thought it a good idea to post why the Subaru Coil is used.

It has the Igniter built into it so wiring is direct from the ECU.

Congrats Michelle! Very exciting. I'm interested to hear your impressions on setup and tuning. Will I hear you opening her up around town soon?
