Hello and greetings from norway!
This is my first post :)

The car is a french Citroën Xantia Activa 2.0 TCT Turbo -96, fully hydraulic with hydractive 2 and activa-anti roll system
The engine is PSA XU10J2TE RGX 4 cylinder 8v turbo injected bosch ECU with piggyback "tuning" chip (+ 16v spare top)
It is the same engine that Matthijs has in his Peugeot 309 sort-of-GTI already running freeEMS, PERFECT! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

The goal is to represent this awesome project with my very own freeEMS ECU build :)
I have interests in computer programming, linux, hardware, some basic electronics skills such as arduinos and other lower voltages.. and ofcourse cars!\ my hydra-pneumatic!
Fun times combining my interests with this project are going to be had! :twisted:

The car does not look to fresh at the moment so pictures will be posted much later :indiff:

Welcome to you, too! :-)

alright, here are some pictures of the car in the shape i got it in, and some pictures after i did my best patching it up (replacing broken electric windows motors, back bumper and broken mirrors and much more)
check out the second last picture, it's self-leveling! so cool :lol2:

the paint is in bad shape, and that red ass does not look great :oops: so a full paint job will be done at some much later point..
otherwise it has nice leather interior and everything runs

so on to the diy efi part, first thing i will have to do is to get my hands on the CardS12 module or this module which need some mods?
recomendations are welcome, i'm leaning towards the one from technologicalarts

Cheers! :-)

I highly recommend you just get a Jaguar board. There are still some left IIRC. Find the thread in buy/sell/for sale and see if it suits you.
