I kinda need my MS, but I have a working JimStim that I could let you use. (JimStim is a regular stimulator plus a configurable wheel simulator)

What is it about the MS you want to know? I might be able to help you out with observations or tests on mine. PM if need be.

For the MS-II, here is a document describing the serial command interface in detail: http://www.megamanual.com/ms2/code.htm#sio

And here's the documentation for the MS-I:http://www.megamanual.com/Code.htm (it's a bit more scattered)

Every now and then they still come in handy when I want to bench-test a major mod, or just troubleshoot some problem. For as little as it costs, keeping it around is worthwhile.

Well, while we're here, and soot's got one on the way, anyone ELSE got a ms i can borrow while i build mine, My ecu went out and I cant really afford to NOT drive my car for that long. i can paypal you a deposit/retainer while i have it.
I expect it will be in my possession for 2-3 weeks, sooner if you need it back urgently.
anything guys?
thanks.

Are you building a blue tooth interface for the megasquirt?

My car is a 2000, would it work if i made a few mods to my car? like installing the CAS I bought. and changing up the settings a bit?
if so it would be awesome to have while i build mine.

What can be cooler then bluetooth on megasquirt. Unless youre building some sort of on the fly tuning screen like a megaview on steroids.
