Hi braineack

had the same problem as this guy! I did the ms1 mods

I don't mean to be rude - ie pls dont get me wrong, but in your sticky thread could you make a sentence in red or something that the mods are for MS1

upto today I never knew that the mods are different, and I cant understand why. I read the megamanual some 3 times and I didn't see the slightest of a hint.

on a positive note, many thanks for your positive input, you made a Programmable ecu possible for a dumbass like me, I never ever grabbed a solder pen in my hand before.

keep the good stuff flowing

So, I see you got the delivery, Brain.

Enjoy the lulz at the shitty harness job.

P.S. 3am in the middle of a parking lot with an $8 soldering kit soldering iron wasn't the best of sources, let alone using street lamps for light >< Worst. Soldering. Job. EVAR.

Much better. Why people don't use heatshrink is completely beyond me.

Soldering kit didn't come with heatshrink when I had to get it working and the place I picked it up from had none, like I said, it was a god-awful parking-lot job.

Great job Brain! Can't wait to get my hands on it!

Oh no, y8s, a plumber could have done a better job than that.

I'd already started to repair it when I thought to take a photo.
