it's about $1425.00 for the base model.... that's like 10x what a megasquirt costs if you build it yourself, and the megasquirt actually has better configurability (Wolf3d for example has 16x16 tables, but configurable only at 125 rpm increments. With the megasquirt you can actually put the rpm bins wherever you want, even though the firmware I'm running is only using 12x12 tables... with interpolation and moveable rpm bins, you have the eqivalent of a much larger table.
Oh yeah, I ran jason's car at WOT to 5k rpms last night on the megasquirt.... and the AFR on the wideband was within 5% of 13.2:1 everywhere except the exact spot where the second set of injectors kicked in (when the second set of injectors kicks in, the pulsewidth of the first set cuts in half, and I guess it takes about .2 seconds for the fuel from the secondary injectors to get to the engine, so there was a .4 second lean spike to about 14.8:1 when the secondaries kicked in, and I'm talking to the author of the code to see if I can get a configurable delay before cutting the pulse-width on the primaries).
It should be interesting to run WOT after the aux ports are working.

The PnP comes with a harness that will plug right into the s5 wiring harness and use the stock sensors AND control the OMP.

I tried putting all spares on it and it sat too low to get over speed bumps.
I guess someone thought it'd be nice to have some bent stock steel rims. (Funny enough, they left the only straight and true rim.) With bald, non inspection passing tires.
Wheels are no big thing, So long as they roll.

I'd rather spend a little extra time soldering stuff myself then spend that much money.

"i want a flat black 7 with flat black wheels, it'd be call the sRX-7"
I remember when I showed up to the garage with the flat black t2 hood and you guys were like "damn thats cool" "how much for powder coating" the look on some faces when I told them it was rattle can super flat black. Flat black rules the world when you don't give a **** about winning paint job car shows.
