Any last minute advice?

ok with in a couple days im going to buy my MS

this is what Im looking at:

http://www.diyautotune.com/catalog/m...-kit-p-59.html


Its the MS2 PCB3.0

Is there any reason why I shouldn't get this and get a different MS. I have done a lot of searching and it seems like this is the best one.

Am I wrong?

Please let me know before I buy this, I have bought fuel management stuff that was not enough before and really don't want to do it again.

Again I am planning on running a t61 at about 18-20lbs maybe more if I get a doweled s5 block. I have large street port. Will be using 750 primaries and 1600 secondaries, dual 255s, no emissions and will be shooting for 500whp on race gas for now, possibly ethanol down the road. I will probably tune it down to what ever I can get it it run 93.

I don't see any reason this shouldn't work for you.

Pretty shortly, James and I will have released ms2/extra 2.1, which would be what I'd run if I were you.

Ken, is 2.1 going to provide an option to poll the sync VR tooth in addition to the current interrupt driven scheme?

well, the interrupt-based method seems to be working fairly well, at least with the latest release of 2.1. You still need to build the second VR circuit though.

so i need an lm1815m some resistors a few capacitors and some jumpers and that's it. (obviously I need specific capacitors and resistors and I know their values already)

Where do you guys get the lm1815m? Mouser? Newark? Radio shack?
