Ok so i finally decided that the megasquirt is the way for me to go and found a set of injectors to use
i found a set of gst 450cc injectors to use for just the cost of shipping. i know i will need the flyback board but the price was right. even if i have to send them to be cleaned i still dont have that much invested so far
next aeromotive, harness, sensors, wideband, unit itself after looking at the list i realize that i am not even close to having everything i need yet am i forgetting anything while i am at it

i am assuming that my current laptop will suffice it doesnt have a serial port so i a hoping that the USB adapter that i am currently using to download my pocketlogger files will work with the MS as well
otherwise i may have to ebay an older one with the serial connection

Look for an older laptop. A real serial port is very helpful, I've found that MegaTune is unstable with a USB-RS232 converter.
I'm lucky to have access to a newer laptop with a serial port. My work bought it because it's the only laptop that Dell still makes with a real serial port. The hard drive sucks, but whatever.

damn oh well ebay has older laptops pretty reasonable but how old is too old then what would be a good recommended minumum speed computer to run megatune

i remember reading something about the pcmcia adapter but after the problems i had even getting the usb to serial to connect to just my palm i am a little leary of adapting anything i definetly dont want to be straneded so i figured it would be safer to just get a laptop with a serial i am still a good couple of months off before i get the MS so i am not too concerned yet
so i can give it a try i am looking at june to have everything i need and the MS ordered
i was at first going to get the ms from rs-autosports because it is 319 for the MS with spark control and the harness but they dont do a base map so i will be placing an order with Mrslick
damn clutch set me back almost 2 months if i felt confident enough i could put it in myself but id rather pay someone and know its done right
