    I am going to look into Megasquirt, I just don't know enough about it! How difficult is it to install and integrate into the existing engine management system.

    Anything you could tell me would be helpfull and appreciated!

      Search!

      Now that is a dumb statement! I have searched and I have read, I have been to the megasquirt board. I am not sure that it sounds easy or necessarily reasonable! It appear a number of people run into installation issues?

          And if you would you would also find a very good member on here that makes the MS systems for our cars and at one time had a eaton supercharger on his m20. So obviously you have not enough then...

              Good god I'm glad I stopped looking at relocating to Kentucky. Oh, and nice Accent. I had one for a year as a go to work car I bought for $55.00 + new thermostat.

                Thank you for the link to that post, I am hoping to have a setup very similar to that one! :p

                  I undersatnd how to search

                  It is not that I don't know where or how to search, it is a matter of finding the information I am looking for.

                    just be diligent in your search and you wont be flamed. My biggest pet peeve is someone being too lazy to search and wanting other people to do the work for them.

                      I was not criticizing the creator of Megasquirt, I just have not learned enough about it implementation! I understand these systems are complex and sometimes take a lot of work and fine tuning for each application.

                      I stated earlier, I am a Broadcast RF Engineer included in that work is a lot of analog and digital control equipment. I spend a lot of time working with relay controllers, digital/analog IC, and Control Scripting! We control our transmitter and satellite receivers this way, we measure filament amperage and plate current by computer, logging those readings and automatically adjusting power levels. I don't know if I am ready to get into my car that deeply yet! I love my work, but there are times I don't want to see any more control circuits!

                        RS4PRO3 is the R3V Megasquirt guru as far as I'm concerned. I know him personally and he builds and loads a starter file for each car. It isn't that difficult to hook up to your car and get running.

                        Mine was the very first one he did way back when. The M90 thread mentioned earlier in this thread is my setup.. It has been in the other body since March and running strong.

                          The wing is bolted in to the frame of the trunk lid, the pressure form the wing is causing wear marks, where the trunk meets the rear of the body above the latch and tail lights, the trunk lid now has a permanent bow in it and the frame from the wind resistance. In the future, I hope to build a frame/cage in the trunk and mount the wing to it, making more effective use of the down force.
                          So let me get this straight, you took a car that already understeers like a whore on crack and added MORE rear downforce? That is so baller, I wish I could be you!

                            Do you have any interest in reproducing your s/c mounting bracket? Is your m90 a t-bird unit?

                              It handles pretty good!

                              I drive on very curvy roads everyday at considerable speed, with no problems so far! 8) I will look into this further, I want the best handling my 325IS can have!

                                Tell you what, if you want it to handle better: replace the trunk with one that's not fucked up and DON'T put a spoiler on it, Take of the graphics (they're causing wind resistance,) and return everything else to stock as well. Next, sell the car to someone who doesn't drive like a retard on public roads but instead, hones their skills at track days or AutoX's and I can 100% ASSURE you that your car will be faster and handle better.
