Phil Meyers Gr2 16v Rally Car
Phil contacted me in between events to do some tuning on his Gr2 Rally Rabbit. He chose to take on the challenges of a first time Megasquirt isntallation and pulled it off nearly flawlessly! He had a small issue with the origional board he had aquired for the project and was forced to order a new board only 2 weeks before the first event. Phil took on the task of assembling the board as well and once again completed it without issue. He brought the car up to me and we got to work, it ran just well enough at that point to get it on/off the trailer. After a few hours of street tuning the car was running incredibly well and since then he has had no engine issues to speak of. I had a few minutes to take some snapshots of the car so I took full advantage.
Here is the car at it’s second event after the EFI conversion, Oregon Trail ’10
