Converting Megasquirt to miata
I have a friend with a 5.0 mustang with megasquirt V1. He offered to sell me it for 80 bucks but it is for an old 5.0 mustang. Is it possible/worth my time to convert it to run on a 91 1.6 miata or should i just buy a plug and play for my miata?

If not, You are better off buying one already built for your car |

I've done a lot of conversions, but never tried to turn my ECU into a car!
it would take like 30min at most to convert it over to miata mods...then you need harness, but I'd do it for $80. |
I would Take Brain up on ^that offer.... that would make it the Cheapest Megasquirt ever attained in the history of Miata.... lmao
Damn good deal |

I don't think he was offering his help for $80. I think he was saying if he could get a Megasquirt for $80 he would go through the trouble of converting it.

Though I'm not sure I agree for a MS1 |
What does a ms1 not have that ms3 has that you would actually need to run a turbo setup?

I was saying: If I were in your shoes, I would buy a MS1 for $80 and modify it to work on my miata. Does the cars harness not work for this? |

1.6turbokid, read through this and see how much of it makes sense to you. That should give you a better idea of what you're getting in to.
