Scott can help you tune, he's with Spectre. They're in Ontario, which I think is near Irwindale and West Covina.

He's one of the best tuners I know, and does a lot with Megasquirt (since Spectre sells the EMSpro, which is basically a megasquirt).

Scott is definitely one of the best tuners with the squirt.

I could probably ask Scott if he minds tuning your car.

You should've come out to the meet last weekend, I actually flew out there. We tuned several cars, including T2GTUS's

Doh, T2GTUS was telling me about it too. I could not make it because I have no car, and I had other plans. My car is soon to be running, I'm in the process of installing my engine and I want to get my car tuned very soon. I will have the money by the end of this week. How was that dyno day anyways?

BTW here is a mod list in case it matters.

S5 t2 streetport by R and R rotary
550cc primary and 1600cc 2ndaries
walbro fuel pump
rb turbo back exhaust
Greddy fmic
vortech bov
s5 hybrid turbo with to4 intake side upgrade
Megasquirt V3?? I have to ask my buddy which megasquirt it is
I will b running 91 octane with 2 stroke oil.
Thanks

That dyno day was a blast. It wasn't *just* a dyno day, it was more of a megasquirt meet, with Scott tuning a lot of cars during it.

There weren't a whole lot of people there who wanted to learn to tune it seemed though, there were a lot of people there who just wanted their engines tuned.

Scott checks in on this forum on occasion, so he might be able to talk to you directly.

Well, I wrote a decent amount of code for ms1/extra, and along with James Murray (in England) wrote a ton of code for ms2/extra.

Scott uses ms1/extra in the spectre EMSpro, and has been in the megasquirt community for a long time, so we originally had some contact on the forums.

I met him the first time in person at the Spring meet in Richmond, VA.
