Did that burnout mark I left convince you? :rofl :rofl

There’s different ways to do this, check these links out of people who have done it to your motor:

What do you want the megaquirt to control? How many injectors? Wasted or sequential spark? Do you need transmission control? Separate maps for N20?

Talk to Rick Abare and see what he runs. Seriously dude, his car should be the blueprint for yours.

You are probably looking at $650 for just an assembled megasquirt 3 ecu. It will do everything you want engine wise, not 100% sure about transmission control though. I don’t know much about that, probably have to buy another part to add that in.

Its just the ecu, prebuilt. If you wanted to you I’m sure Nick (AMDisbest) or myself could build the kit for you to save you some money). The kit is like $450 or something. You might need some sensors and wiring stuff, idk.

Is it an actual MS3 on a 3.xx board or a MSII? Either way it can be upgraded to a MS3 processor. If it’s an MS3 and John doesnt want it I would be interested in it.
