Finally spent the $$$
 
I went by DIYautotune at lunch and picked up my mega squirt kit. I finally got tired of reading posts from everyone else building their own. I'm sure I'll have a slew of questions when I get started this weekend. Who knew I'd be looking forward to a potentially rainy weekend?

I got to talk with Jerry for a few minutes. They have some interesting projects going on over there...

Yah Scott even I am on the bandwagon, and im an IDIOT when it comes to car electronics.

Man once you start building it you'll realize that it's more than worthwhile to build it yourself. Specially if you have any sort of hiccups and people are helping you troubleshoot hardware. You'll actually understand what the hell they're saying when taking about the rs232 or R17 for ex.

adbradley 03-07-2007 06:59 PM

yeah building it yourself FTW

im really glad i did it, but wish i wouldnt have gotten the POS internal usb adapter, hate that thing

Ben 03-07-2007 08:21 PM

That's awesome Scott. I'll have to bum a ride from you once you get it in.

GTS Miata 03-07-2007 08:53 PM

I'll definitely show it off when I get it in... who knows how long it will take, though!

Ben 03-07-2007 08:56 PM

Well then we can race. Let's see if you can get your MS in before I can get my Link working :hs:

GTS Miata 03-07-2007 09:17 PM

OK, desolder your link and then we'll start the race.

Ben 03-07-2007 09:26 PM

that would be tough as it's in a box headed back to colorado, where a voodoo doctor will perform a fixerectomy and then send it back. So you have at least 20 days head start.

GTS Miata 03-08-2007 08:04 AM

20 days, that is a good head start! :bigtu: The wife goes home to visit her family in a few weeks for spring break, perhaps that will give me the free time I need...
