I've seen a few references to a Megasquirt system being tested by TCD. I'd like some info about this system, as I'd really like to get a MS system on my car.

What MS system is it based on? MSII or Ultra MS? Does it control ignition as well? What about output for boost control solenoid? How will we connect to it for tuning, same as normal MS? WB O2 sensor logging? Cost?

I've thought about doing my own MS system, but if the TCD system does everything and comes in a box that replaces the stock ECU and connects to the stock wiring harness, the ease of integration will be worth it.

Jim,

We'll have a working prototype at 5erFest with fuel and ignition controls. We hope to have the product to market in the fall.

I cannot even guess at this point. We'll have a target price at 5erFest.

Thanks for the info. Fall is a long time to wait, but I guess it will really be here before we know it.
