Megasquirt in my 16v by JonnyPhenomenon

2 minute(s) of a 104 minute read

well, I think I will explore that in "stage 2". right now I am working on stage 1. 

going to get and build the ecu, get all the sensors, fuel rail, TB, and stuff that I need for it and connect using the stock ICM. Ill use the dizzy until I can save up for the rest of the ignition conversion stuff. 

it would be nice if I had some money saved up for this already...

why do I have such awful luck??

I ordered my jimstim and some other stuff from diyautotune on the 4th. and the parts left Georgia on the 7th. they traveled to Florida on the 9th, and today they are in California.

I live in Maine.

lets all track this package together, shall we?

yeah well. Im dissapointed. and the thing is, I only ordered a couple things the first time because I wanted to get an idea of how reliable they were. this doesnt look too good for them.

but in reality, it looks like the post office is to blame..

true true..

OK, the good news is that the package arrived today, and let me tell ya, this jim stim looks awesome. if the actual megasquirt is half as cool as this, Im gonna be psyched.

I have been spending a lot of time reading and considering the installation. I think that I may reuse the stock coolant temp sensor instead of adding another one. I also read the megasquirt kit comes with the correct db7 connector to make your own wiring harness. and as convenient as the relay board might be, I may just use the exsisting relay panel and fuse block. 

I just ordered this stuff two minutes ago.
