I too would like to see a NODIZ...........I'm guessing it's some kind of street-wise Noddy?  |

Tepper has one fitted to his 205. He seems be happy with the device.

I'm running Nodiz in my Wolseley 1500 fitted with a Silver top 1800 zetec (130spec) fueled by Honda CBR carbs. I've got no complaints so far but I am still running on the map that was supplied with the unit. I have heard that they are a pain to remap as the blue tooth connection on them is poor and drops out a lot. The guy at Nodiz was really helpful when I ordered mine and claimed to have a map that matched my engine and carb specification and that my unit would come with this pre loaded. I am inclined to believe him as my car pulls like a train and has no flat spots or hesitation anywhere in the rev range. I've not had it on a rolling road to see what kind of power it is making but I can say it is plenty fast enough for me.

What is the advantages of running a system like that with carbs?

It's mappable.
My system currently is just a belt driven dizzy.
It's quite rough setup, and have had countless cars with c20xe it should be a lot smoother running.

The curve is probably going to be wrong on that dizzy, as it's no doubt an unmodified 1.8 manta item using the 1.8 ignition bits to make it run

It runs ok. pickup from idle is hit and miss, top end misfires, also theres a vac advance on the dizzy, should this be connected.
Anyhow the NODIZ seems to be the cheapest option, ive looked at H&H kit they can supply for around the same money, but tahts mechanical like my setup, granted a lot better better and made for the job,

Plus, it cleans up the bay not having the dizzy hanging off the engine, i can use an unmodified belt cover

I went down the Nodiz route and so far I'm very happy with it, seemed to be the cheapest and easiest way of sorting out the ignition when going over to bike carbs. It uses bog standard bits off a mk1 Zetec engine so no problem getting bits from a scrapyard. Support from the company was good, they were helpful when it came to getting my rev counter working and if you're in the south west they're located in the same premises as M-Tech automotive, who did a great job of getting it mapped. I've heard there can be issues with mapping due to the bluetooth, but I've not had any problems with it and it didn't ever drop the connection while it was being mapped. My unit is mounted inside the car, maybe problems arise when it's mounted in the engine bay? The main advantage, as others have said, is that it's mappable. After the carbs were setup, I watched Simon at M-Tech almost get rid of a mid-range flat spot on the dyno curve by dialling in more advance, which would be a lot more difficult to achieve with a distributor. I'm sure that the car behaves itself a lot better due to having modern, mapped ignition - the power curve is pretty linear and it's a lot more driveable in traffic than it was on a dizzy. There are a few other bits as well - outputs to run cooling fans, rev limiters etc which can all be set as needed. As well as that, you can run a digital dash on an android phone. Here's mine on a £15 HTC:  Ignore the inlet air temp, I haven't got a sensor hooked up. So yeah, very pleased with it but don't have anything to compare it with apart from the old dizzy. Happy to answer any more specific questions if needed  I should add that I have no affiliation with Nodiz or ME, I just think it's a good piece of kit and so far there doesn't seem to be that much info about it online so reckon it's worth sharing my experience. |
