8cyl *SFI* P-4 was RE: Traction

[Dave Zug]

The turbo GP I used to have used a 1227727 ecm and had lots of 
features.. of which I'm not sure what ones were directly connected to 
ecm and what was farmed out to sub-processing but the car had the 
usual IO ports plus: ABS, turbo wastegate solenoid output, heads up 
display, was MAP based, was batch fire (although I was told once that 
a SFI version was "out there") if you found the SFI version maybe 
convert programming to batch and use the extra drivers for whatever.

PS
Aanyone ever seen/done an 8-cyl P-4 *SFI* ecm? my camaro would like 
that one.. if I were going to put in the time for a conversion to MAP 
or harness change I would want to try this at the same time if it 
was feasable. hmmm...
