Kinda like that little box w/ a switch that somebody posted up?

 

no idea

 

I just saw it the other day...someone had a PnP box that kept things clean.

 

sounds like hte same list of parts i have, i'm having trouble figuring this one out myself

 

If I go in on this GB, all I need is:

MSV3 w/ board mods
LC1
Wiring pigtails or full harness, depending on where I decide to stick the MS unit
Tuning cable
GM IAT

Right? I'd love to do this, as long as I'm not missing major components, or being required to build my own wiring harness. I can deal with vampire clips.

 

IMm pretty sure the wiring harness from the MS unit is included... then you just have to tap into your miata harness... If you look at the diagram that arkmage has uploaded, you will get a better idea of how it works.. the wiring doesnt look to be that hard at all.

You tap into the input signals (CAS, iat, 02) and then you hook the outputs (spark control, injector control) to switches that lets you switch control back and forth between the MS or the stock ECU... seems pretty simple to me.

 

i think so far chad is the only one that has confirmed that he is in.. if you want to be included in this GB, please PM me and let me know.. As soon as i have enough people, and there money all gathered together, im going to order.

 

to to keep this simple for me here is my plan, im going to get the board that is modded.. Tap into the inputs comming from the engine, and leave them attatched to the stock ecu as welll... Then im going to get simple male and female connectors. I will cut the output wires before they go into the stock ecu and put male connectors on the leads comming from the engine, then female connectors on the leads comming from the MS, and female connectors on the leads comming from the Stock ECU. Then i can just unplug the outputs from the MS, and connect them back to the stock ECU any time i want..

 

I'd love to jump in on this, but I can't do anything until I get my taxes back...however, my b-day is coming up...maybe I should ask for something early

 

the MS will include the DB37 connector for the harness, but not the wires. You will need to get some wire and solder the harness together. I made the mistake of paying an extra $10 for a DB37 for the harness as it wasn't in the list of included components of the kit, so I have two now.

 

miatamania... it will prolly bee another 30 days before this all goes down... so that gives you a month to get the $$ together

 

HAHHAHAHAHA

LOCKED!

Good ol Gord!

Re MS and LC-1 group buy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,
Just a note to explain why your post was locked - see the Guidelines section on Group buys.

Normally, we'd want you to clear a group buy with us before posting it. In this case, I'm pretty sure none of the forum sponsors sell the MegaSquirt , and maybe only 1 or 2 sell the LC-1, so I think it's OK to proceed.

Let me know if you have any questions!

The pic on his Avatar just has "i suck ****" written all over it

 

gotta protect the F-ing sponsors!!

 

if none of the sponsors sell MS then how are they being protected by locking the group buy thread? I hate m.net

 

oh tis LC1 some of them sell the lc-1 what a ***

 

ah least its just locked not deleted.

 

I would be interested, but really at this point there is no way i could go through with a MS install- im still nervous about installing my bipes this weekend.

Good luck though.

 

Wow, that is unbelievably lame of m.net.

I remember reading a MS related thread over there, where keith from FM said the MS had some bugs, but they were "looking into it" or something. interesting.

 

HAHAHAHAHAH just think how much money you could make selling MS units that were PnP for various cars... If you were a MS guru so to speak

 

AdBrad, that seems simple enough. I'll have the cash in 2 weeks. I'm in.

Why would you ever reconnect to the stock ECU? Tee hee hee. :gay:
