Your not wrong there!

Nothing like the satisfaction of building it up, flashing the firmware and watching it run the engine first time! (even if it is only ignition at the moment).

Indeed, doing the V4 Megajolt was a satisfying experience.

I'm interested in the injection but I hear differing reports on how effective it is on the 5 port heads. I could, at a push get hold of a SPi system from a 1275 Mini which I understand is pretty effective when used with MS and rather unpromising when used with the Rover system.

I know what you mean with the siamese ports issue. Not a problem with mine, using the crossflow heads ;)

Turbominis forum has some interesting info on siamese port code though for Megasquirt. Sounds promising.

Just ordered a Innovate LC1 wideband to plug into the MS2 so I can do the self teaching mode.

Thank you Geoff,

Am I right in thinking he's used the throttle body from the Mini SPi system?

Cheers Stan. Just got to get some lenses to go with them but I think they should do the trick.

Hows your Corsa Spyder getting on. It looks great. My wife likes them. Every time she sees a picture of one she says she wants one ;).
