I've never heard of it before... Saying that, an ECU is just like a calculator... If there is a reputable tuner in your area that deals with a 'megasquirt' ecu, then speak to them about it. Personally, I'd be running a Power FC D-Jetro...

As if there's an ECU called Megasquirt.

For most of our cars i'd say the Nistune or the PFC d-jetro as there's loads of people that can tune them. I've gone the more difficult route and got a HKS Fcon V Pro (v3.3) but got such a good deal on it I could pass it up, plus I have a HKS tuner in the town I work in Really i'd steer clear of ECU's that aren't generaly being used by others as this limits greatly the tuners that can map it.

Megasquirt is not compatible with the Nissan trigger..

tbh Nistune is much more capable than bodging a Megasquirt on..

if your looking to be running a LOT of power then i would recommned the LinkG4 ecu,

all above in stock.

Apparently megasquirt is like a 'my first ecu' lol, that's what a tuner I know calls them...

hahah.. well said..

i think they are for people that have something like a TR4 that they are converting injection..

dont get me wrong.. they are capable units.. but the fact they dont accept oem triggers and have nowhere near the configurability of for example the G4. means they are worlds apart

thanks for the input guys, just wanted learn tuning in a cheap way. More of a impulse thing. Given up now! ha..

 

[martinbattye]

a cheap way of learning to tune is not megasquirt..

for the S15 it is Nistune.
