new megasquirt harness finished!!! check it out!
t3h mEgAsQuIrT!!!! just finished building this sweet custom harness for megasquirt. its merged with the stock pass. side harness. and I'm ridding myself of the emissions, and all other worthless crap on the stock harness, so it will be super clean!!!
about to go put this sucker in the FC. hopefully it will work. lol.
and yes, I'm well aware that ALL the wiring is white.
all the extra wire we cut off the stock ECU...oh wait, thats actually not all of it.

lol, nice! I think the best part about doing that kind of thing is hooking it up and the car starts up first try! meaning you didn't **** anything up!
Btw, how did you know how long to cut each wire?

I just got my Megasquirt running. It started on the very first try! Easy as hell to tune. I have no idea why people constantly say efi is hard to tune or that you need a dyno. That's a myth.
My unit is screwed to the back of my glove compartment box. I just don't want it on the floor. I drilled a hole into the transmission tunnel behind the radio and ran all of my wiring through it. It all comes up behind and under the intake manifold. Really clean and the wiring is super short. I think my longest wire is about 3 feet long. It looks great. You're going to love it.

You dont HAVE to have all the wires all white: http://www.rs-autosport.com/
You can use WBO2 sensors with MegaSquirt you know, theres a great DIY one at WBO2.com that uses a VW sensor.
Thanks for posting pics, I was planning of doing almost exactly the same thing

wow, but I only spent $10 on my wiring.
any yeah, I was thinking about getting that WB02 thing, but I'm just gonna end up going to the dyno anyway, so I may just use theirs.

how are these megasquirt computers? that link aove has them priced at $269? and they work good? what can you do with it, does it make you toast?
what can you do with it? you can tune your fuel system, independently from the stock ECU. no, it does not make you toast....well, it 'could' make your engine toast if you tune it poorly.

tofuball, yours is N/A, right?
I 'believe' with the EDIS, you still can't do trailing and leading differences properly.
but I really don't know much about it. would someone like to explain this system to me and kenteth

Who here has put thiers together themselves and how long was the time invested. I've really been considering this. I thought about getting asking my circuit analysis Instructor to give some extra credit for it.
