Jeff_man, I just read your "blocked' post. ...looks like I'm not the only one that is tired of your badgering comments. ;)

Nice trying to turn this back onto me! :fawk: My frustration is directly due to your relentless and worthless posts in this thread. Thank you for being annoying enough to cause me to dig deeper into the User CP settings. I have never had to use them!

I wouldn't have read your posts if Reverant hadn't replied to your most recent "Is it tomorrow?" post. Rest assured, I will never read another letter you post.

Reverant, good luck tracking down the problem!!! Take your time and don't let it frustrate you. If all five are acting up and were built simultaneasly, maybe try building another by itself and see if you made the same mistake on all five. Compare to the rest to a working unit?

Another satisfied customer, glad i could help.

Reverant 10-17-2011 11:07 AM

Issue #1 was found. The expansion board would randomly shutdown after a couple of minutes - the issue was that I was using the same power supply source for the expansion board as the Megasquirt itself - voltage regulator U5. The regulator couldn't handle the load and the expansion board fell first. Luckily, I had anticipated this and had reserved a spot on the expansion board for a second, on-board regulator. This fixed the issue.

Issue #2 is that there is a source of noise on the car that affects the board. I need to pinpont and the origin and isolate the noise.

chiefmg 10-17-2011 05:38 PM

Thanks for the updates.

hattrick 10-20-2011 12:33 AM

Just wondering how the noise problem is coming?

Reverant 10-20-2011 11:56 AM

Just solved the noise issue.

Fuck yeah.

The good news is that I won't have to eat the new expansion boards (and you won't have to wait until new ones arrive).

The bad news is that it will take 1-2 days for me to fix the boards that I have already assembled.

Hoping to ship the first batch on Saturday.

Reverent is single handedly going the bring Greece out of all its economic woes with his MS building.

Braineack 10-20-2011 01:18 PM

Was driving into work today thinking that he was stalling hoping that the dollar would go up vs the euro so he would come out ahead.

Not going to happen, the last episode of "Decoded", told us there's no gold in fort knox anymore, the value of the dollar should be on a steady decline now. I know, because TV said so!

hattrick 10-20-2011 05:39 PM

Thanks for the update, I want to drive my car again before the snow comes, Dam winter!!

85z28 10-22-2011 05:53 PM

Updates? Trying to figure if I can buy parts.....

chiefmg 10-22-2011 06:32 PM

I sent him my car info today so I imagine he's close to shipping the first five, as he said.

Reverant 10-23-2011 03:45 AM

The first five US units are ready and I have sent PMs to their owners for further info to setup their basemaps. These are:

palmtree
paNX2K&SE-R
chiefmg
rlogan
Jesse99James

I will begin building hattrick's ECU tomorrow, and it should be ready to ship on Tuesday (he's in Canada). Then d@nny's (UK) should ship on Friday.

The next units to build:

1) 2manyhobyz (US, paid)
2) bigx5murf (US, paid)
3) p800bry (UK, paid)
4) towelie (UK, not paid)
5) 85z28 (US, not paid)
6) Jeff_man (US, not paid)
7) Flyin96M (US, not paid)

Just not sure on the order to build them, since the UK gentlemen are in positions 3 and 4.

Three options here:

a) Build 1,2,5,6,7 amd ship them, then build 3, ship, 4, ship.
b) Build 3, ship, 4, ship, 1,2,5,6,7
c) Build 1,2 (and keep them aside), build 3, ship, 4 and ship, build 5,6,7 and ship with 1 and 2.

Any input on that? 4 through 7 will need to pay within the coming week.

I'm for option A as well and my $$ is ready and waiting.

Just waiting on his instructions pm.

hattrick 10-23-2011 02:31 PM

Any idea on how long the shipping to canada is ?

Reverant 10-23-2011 03:53 PM

The last ECU I sent to Canada took 7 days - shipped on the 9th, delivered on the 16th.

bigx5murf 10-23-2011 05:27 PM

The guy above me,is his sn "too many hot boys"? because if it is, he's driving the right car!

rlogan 10-24-2011 10:02 PM

I just sent you my specs...keep up the good work!

ccsfd 10-25-2011 04:25 AM

Progress on knock control sir?

Reverant 10-25-2011 05:06 AM

No progress yet, I've been dealing with the other problems. First batch ships today since I have all the basemaps setup and ready.

2manyhobyz 10-25-2011 09:35 AM

LOL, Wow, I didn't see that variation. It's TOO MANY HOBBIES.
I'm not in a hurry because the more debugging you find on your end, the less problems it will be on this end. Let me know when to send the specs. Keep up the good work.
Thanks

hattrick 10-25-2011 10:48 AM

Did you get a chance to build mine yet?

Reverant 10-25-2011 02:40 PM

Working on yours now. I'll PM you about your car specs tomorrow.

85z28 10-28-2011 08:15 AM

Any details?

Reverant 10-28-2011 08:25 AM

Yes, hattrick's ECU is ready, P800bry's ECU will be ready within the weekend, then starting on Monday, 2manyhobyz, bigx5murf, 85z28, Jeff_man, Flyin96M are next. So, I'll need payments from the last 3 of you guys (I'll PM you shortly).

Flyin96M 10-28-2011 10:57 AM

:yippee:

jeff_man 10-28-2011 11:10 AM

They should land in Cali within this week, where they will be shipped with a flat-rate USPS Priority mail box. Faster shipping can be arranged for if required.

Reverant 10-30-2011 01:20 PM

Thanks for that. I don't need it quicker as I'm still waiting on some other bits, just wanted to have a general idea when to expect it.

Tomorrow. Everything always ships and gets to you tomorrow.

Just wondering if there was a tracking # for my ECU?

85z28 11-02-2011 11:33 PM

Finishing my payment Friday. How much for the upgraded MAP piece for more boost?

I can include a brand new external 3bar MAP sensor w/connector for $68 (these are $72.5 new from DIY) or an internal 4bar MAP for $50.

85z28 11-03-2011 05:28 AM

Which would you suggest Rev?

Reverant 11-03-2011 05:34 AM

How much boost are you going for?

85z28 11-03-2011 07:17 AM

Probably no more that 26?

Reverant 11-03-2011 07:49 AM

Then the GM 3bar is preferred.

jeff_man 11-03-2011 10:03 AM

Doesn't the MS2 have internal map? I have 2 GM 3bars for sale and if this is untrue i need to make sure i keep one.

Reverant 11-03-2011 10:05 AM

It does, but the stock one is limited to 21psi of boost.

85z28 11-05-2011 06:49 AM

Paid!

Reverant 11-05-2011 07:07 AM

Received, thanks!

Reverant 11-05-2011 06:15 PM

The first batch of 5 landed in CA, they should be mailed out on Monday.

chiefmg 11-05-2011 07:19 PM

Woohoo!!
