EarlsFlyincobra,

I have used Engine Management systems before in the past. The system that I have used was Electromotive and Haltech. I have used them on Grand Nationals and Toyota Supras.

I would highly recommend using a pure Engine management system. The Explore system will have limitations. Also, I am not too familair with the setup but I have never heard of a Ford Explorer come Turbo. That would be 1 major modification.

How would you control the wastegates? Electronically or Mechanical? How would you control your timing?

Again I highly recommend using a system design to do so.

You also might want to look into Motec ENgine systems, this was used in Cart and indy racing.

Haltech, Electromotive, and Motec have alot of extra useful features.

I hope this helps
