PDM High Power Output Question

Hi all,

Sorry for probably a verry dumb question but i'm gonna ask it anyway..

I want to power 6 coils in total (1,2,3 for bank 1 - 4,5,6 for bank 2)
when using a 20A high power output you need combine 2 pins,
can i use one pin for powering the coils for bank 2 and the other one for bank 2?

Yes, that would be fine if each coil draws around 7.5A or less.

If they are more than this, I would combine the two pins and then feed all the coils from this (this is what I am doing on my VQ30).

How long is the run of wire from the PDM to the injectors.

Thanks for the information!

I will use Audi TT coils, any idea where i can find the specs for current draw?
The wire would be around 1.2m from PDM to the coils.
I was planning to use 18AWG wire for each pin

If you can find the part number on the coil, I am sure the guys at Motec will have all the details (including dwell times etc).
