2/15/10 A year has passed, and the Megasquirt is finally hooked up in the Mustang and has fired it up for the first time! (photo at bottom) I still have a lot of learning to do about tuning and getting everything ironed out (good weather for test driving will help also,) but I’m looking forward to it. Before that, though, I still have to run a permanent MAP line, machine the radio delete plate for mounting the MS there, and get my JAW wideband hooked up and mounted so I’m not stuck using only the narrowband. Oh yeah, I have to figure out how to set up the nitrous control with MS, also, but that will wait until I get a better handle on tuning and a decent tune.
2/15/09 A formerly unassembled Megasquirt v1 pcb3.0 from diyautotune is now completed and functional. I’ll be using an EEC-IV adapter board for zero rewiring, which only needs a few jumpers to be complete. All I need now is a relay cable and to read up more on Megatune.
Update via commentary … I ended up reconfiguring this Megasquirt for use with the Sunbird. I will probably put a post up about that at some point, and I think I also may get another MS someday for use with the Mustang, but for now it’s just going to be running off the EECIV.
