Megasquirt ECU

How good do they work for the FC. I wired a safc up with no problems and I understand electronics. How difficult is it to install? thanks for all the help

A hell of a lot more complicated than wiring an S-AFC (which is easy, to say the least). And it's a bit more than understanding electronics, it's matching resistors to give a good resolution for the sensors you'll be using, piggybacking the stock ECU to run ignition, creating a fuel map that won't send your apex seals through your exhaust. And that's just the easy stuff

It is do-able, just read, read, read and read. Then assemble the box, play with it while it's out of the vehicle using the testing board, and then get a basemap from someone(i've got one for an N/A), and start it up, at least you'll know what's going on then. Rens and I have run our N/A's with them

My main question is do they outline how to piggyback the computer and adjust resistance for sensors so on and so forth and ow long did it take to install yours?
