                  I already pulled the trigger on MegaSquirt.

                  So studs and headgasket would be next in line.

                      This guy in SoCal who works for DynoTech Motorsports.

                      He's giving me the fuel map for the volvo injectors he uses on his drift car and the timing map for his turbo M42.

                        No :(

                        I want to see some bad ass 4 cylinder that I would have built. But I sold out and pulled the trigger on a M50.

                            I put down the deposit friday.

                            He'll build it and then I pay the rest with my next paycheck and he'll ship it out that day.

                            Comes with a pre-wired wideband as well.

                                Yes indeed.

                                He'll do all the soldering and stuff, I just gotta plug it in and play with it with Tim's laptop for a while.
