[QUOTE="jonboylaw, post: 381691, member: 17621"] If you are prepared to get creative and make brackets and fittings then you can do a Mj for under £300 if you buy second hand. I am just going through this myself, but I am buying new as I know the quality then. It is slightly cheaper to go TPS than MAP so bear this in mind. The EDIS and coil packs can be got from scrapyards, along with the TPS and crank trigger. For a trigger wheel, then Triggerwheels are ok or you could wait on Ebay for a complete instal to come up. Crank trigger is always going to be more stable than a mechanical set up as there is no tolerances or wear, plus you can set the map to what your engine wants and not rely upon springs and vac retard etc. Edited to say that is you have any contacts in the US then buying from Autosportlabs is slightly cheaper if you can avoid the import duty. Also there is a chap on the Samba that sells some neat brakets and triggerwheels with VR sensor. [/QUOTE]
