    Why megasquirt? A lot of wise men in UK seem to use them rather than more commonly available systems so curious why you oh wise person chose them????

    it's cheap, i can build it myself, and it will do almost everything i want it to do, the almost is going to be solved soon as they are working on the timing circuit for fully sequential injection, in the mean time ill use batch (3 and 3 instead of gang fire with all 6) fire with the factory harness, once the timer comes out ill build a custom wiring harness. heres one of the sites if you want to read up on it http://www.bgsoflex.com/megasquirt.html i only have $350 in the whole thing
