I have been running a fmu/stock ecu turbo setup for years now and I am ready for megasquirt. Tired of all the bugs/unreliability and really just want to make the jump from one to the other.
I'm new to the whole megasquirt/tuning deal but have been doing alot of research the past couple weeks. So I'm asking what specifically is needed other than the unit itself. I'd like to do a complete standalone system pre assembled, I'm thinking a megasquirt 2 assembled unit from diyautotune.com with a 8' standard harness.
Now to the specific questions I have. Other than the assembled unit and harness, is there anything else I will need to order from diyautotune? Is there any specific mods I have to do to the unit to work correctly? I have read, and seen videos of guys installing megasquirt and they are installing a second coolant and manifold temp sensor, what is the reason for this? Can we not hook up the existing sensors to the ms? Map sensor?
As for fuel, I am running a begi/cartech rising rate sfmu, and understand I will need a 1:1 rising rate regulator instead if I'm correct? What model works best?
Thank you
