Things to note:
1.) The MS shown does NOT have a case, and no mention of a case is made in the description... do they not get a case? Mine come with cases.
2.) There is no mention of the mods needed to the MS to make it even work with the 2GNT Tach signal, let alone work with the Crank Position Sensor... Mine come standard setup for either the 2GNT tach. signal or Crank Sensor. Your choice.
3.) The specs list 4 Bar MAP sensor option... very unlikelly. I am the only person in the US driving round with the 3 BAR MAP sensor under development... sorry, but no one else has the software for the 3BAR MAP, let alone the 4 BAR MAP... tut tut.
4.) Do these MS units come with preloaded base maps for the 2GNT? Mine do.
5.) Do these MS units come with free tech. support? Mine do.
6.) Megatune build 296? sorry but you need the latest 331 build to run all of the latest features that I have preloaded into my MS units.
7.) Can these MS units come pre-configured for ignition control using the Stock Crank Position Sensor? My MS units can. I am as far as i know the only person with a daily driven MS powered 2GNT with full standalone ignition control using the Factory Crank Position Sensor.
I'm not trying to rein on anyones parade here, just I think whoever is making these units, or selling them may not be as dedicated to the 2gnt market as I am, nor are they likelly to be able to offer the support that I can. The last thing we need is unsuspecting MS buyers stuck without any help...

62436, RE: Megasquirt deal if interested Posted by etx, Dec-07-04 03:45 AM
Buy them from MrSlick. He's the one that figured the shit out, and worked with people to get it working on the 2gnt. If this other dude has all the same shit he's just a cherrypicker.

Thanks guys.
I'm not saying don't buy from this guy, I just want people to know what they're getting, and know what they are going to get into with a project such as the MS...
Peace.

- Relay Board avalable for an additional $100.00 each
$100 for the relay board? What the Shit is that? Sensors? Has this guy ever setup or tuned a MS on any kind of car?

62444, RE: Megasquirt deal if interested Posted by MrSlick, Dec-07-04 05:19 AM
People should also be aware of this one piece of very important information:
It is NOT possible to fully test an MS that is not mounted in a case... You see those 2 verticle FET's that you see in the pictures are the injector driver FET's... They put off a lot of heat, and are heatsinked through the case...
If you tested the MS with no case attached, you would more than likelly burn up those FET's.
I test all of my Megasquirt's on the test bench, and they also get burnt in for at least 1 hour on my 2GNT... ;)

again. if you visit www.bimmerjim.com, he has set this up many times for alot of people. He got a 17 second bmw to 11.88 and this was his fuel managment system for it. He knows what hes doing. Here is what he said in reply to what slick said.
Quote: 1.) The MS shown does NOT have a case, and no mention of a case is made in the description... do they not get a case? Mine come with cases.
In the group buy post I stated that the cases are not included in the group buy, but are available seperately. I can include one for an additional 30 dollars. They can be made or purchased seperately if you choose to DIY.
Quote: 2.) There is no mention of the mods needed to the MS to make it even work with the 2GNT Tach signal, let alone work with the Crank Position Sensor... Mine come standard setup for either the 2GNT tach. signal or Crank Sensor. Your choice .
The megasquirts im selling in my group buy are basic units. they are not targeted to sell to any one particular kind of vehicle, but I sell them to work on any veicle, primaraly as a fuel control unit only. You cater to the 2gnt crowd, I cater to everyone, Of course modifications to the board to run MSNS or MS & EDIS can be done by request if somone wishes to have ignition control also.
Quote: 3.) The specs list 4 Bar MAP sensor option... very unlikelly. I am the only person in the US driving round with the 3 BAR MAP sensor under development... sorry, but no one else has the software for the 3BAR MAP, let alone the 4 BAR MAP... tut tut. 3.)

Thats a bold statement. i wouldnt count yourself so sure that you are the only one. as I stated, a larger map sensor is avalable for an additional charge. the ms units in the group buy come with the 2.5 bar. If somone wants, even larger map sensors can be made to work also but have to be mounted remotely. you may not know the coding to make large map sensors work, but i do.
Quote: 4.) Do these MS units come with preloaded base maps for the 2GNT? Mine do
No, the only precoded basemap I can offer at this time is one for a car like mine. Which is not a 2gnt.
Quote: 5.) Do these MS units come with free tech. support? Mine do.
Yes, they do.
Quote: 6.) Megatune build 296? sorry but you need the latest 331 build to run all of the latest features that I have preloaded into my MS units.
Into your base units, yes. Mine are not configured the same as yours. and 2.25b296 is the Mega tune version and firmware used. included in the group buy are software cd's with software installation instructions for that version of mega tune.
Quote: 7.) Can these MS units come pre-configured for ignition control using the Stock Crank Position Sensor? My MS units can.
Again, no. The group buy post states what it comes with. The basic universal setup. If somone wants something in addition to what comes with the group buy, I can help them get it.

You are corect that I am not as dedicated to the 2gnt market as im sure you are. I am not a 2gnt driver. Im certian that you are in fact better suited than i to offer support for the 2gnt specific crowd than I am.
I want to make it clear that if anyone feels this offer is not the best choice for them, that they should not participate. I dont want to step on anyones feet here.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. i dont post on your forum, my group buy post was brought to your board by a friends request that thought some of you might be interested. So, because I dont post on your board, here is my email if you have any questions. sgpbimmer@yahoo.com

62464, RE: Megasquirt deal if interested Posted by tim97rs, Dec-07-04 09:16 AM
thank you for the offer, but im gonna go out on a limb and speak for the whole 2gnt community and say: Thanks, but not interested!
|
62466, RE: Megasquirt deal if interested Posted by grain, Dec-07-04 09:46 AM
wow, i can feel the rip off. lets see here.
www.glensgarage.com
complete ms (with cases): 140 simulator: 40 relay board: 65 145 plus shipping , 6 bucks.
so costs to order the shit = 150+/-
you want... 300 plus cases(30), plus sim(60), plus relay(100)
i dont see where this is a good deal.
- Laptop or Desktop computer with a db9 conector is required for tuning adjustments, but not necessary for normal operation. yet, with the regular setup hes running, your car wont run w/out having a labtop to fix the ve tables, and accel enrichments, and warmup enrichments... dont even get me started.

ok no need to bring up deals anymore. i just thought it was a good deal since i hadn't seen anything recently. If your not interested (2gnt community) then you can close/remove this thread. Sorry for the waste of space.
