local tuner doesnt want to tune with megasquirt..
Hey!
i'm planning on going turbo maybe this summer. im wondering what else is out there for engine management beside megasquirt cause the best tuner around doesnt want to deal with megasquirt...
im just planning to start with low boost but prob gonna push it more later down the road.

well if you care about what he thinks enough to not get megasquirt then ask him what he would recommend and get that.

Megasquirt is for people who want to tune it themselves.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Re: local tuner doesnt want to tune with megasquirt..
what are you running? what are your goals? what will the guy work with? AEM, Hydra, Motec? How much money ya got?
IF you even need a stand alone. The real units out there can run you over a thousand for an entry level, universal kit. Then add on $$$ for every option. There is a reason why people use MS. Best thing to do is street tune it, take it to the dyno and you should be familiar enough with it by then to do it yourself. If you have a WB, you can do a pretty darn good tune on your own. as long as you are smart about it.

ya, google. Workspattheriault wrote:they dont make aem for mx-3..
Who f'n cares if it's made for us or not. The thing about universal stuff, is that you can put it on damn near anything. PnP does not exist, just like the MSNS that you would have used.
