So I finally got my MegaSquirt installed on the car. I don't have a laptop so I programmed the MS on my desktop computer and plugged it in my car in hopes it would work. Well, it started up the first time. It's extremely rich. I only let it run for 10secs or so because I wouldn't mind keeping some oil on the rings. The question is, does anyone around here have any experience with it? It's been almost 2 years since I tuned the MS v2.2 and that was on a narrow-band sensor. The 3.0 isn't much of a change in tune, but I've got a lot to refresh on and learn. The only benefit will be getting to ride in a 10psi 2500lb car...
Anyone game? I've got a meet up in Cleveland on the 23rd and I ordered me a computer, but I'm not sure if it'll be in in time to get a good tune.

That sounds like all kinds of fun...wouldn't a laptop be a lot faster? Seems like that setup could take forever to get it tuned right...
I don't have much experience with it but i've studied a lot on it, looking at options for turbo-ing my little Prelude, but decided to just buy one already done and tune & upgrade it from there.
nice link too, WTF? lol That's just not right...

My roommate let me borrow hers for a few hours and I got it so I can drive it at least. It's still pretty bad, but I got it to idle nice. I ordered a laptop off eBay so hopefully the guy is nice and can ship fast, but until then I'm screwed, and I go to the track this weekend. |

Well, I realized after tonight's drive that I've forgetten a lot. I think it's now time to upgrade to the MSnS-E software and get this thing tuned for the track.
