Default MS1 in NB

Hi,
I want to known if it's possible to install a MS1 v3.0 PCB in a 2000 NB??
I start the assembly with a TD04 turbo and I search an ECU
Thanks a lot

I'm not sure what the question is. It can fit, it can work to control minimal functions. If budget is a major concern, I would suggest the MS3-Mini from MSLabs. They come from Greece. Requires you to put the PWB into a stock case. Some idea of functionality can be seen here: MSLabs

The MS1 will not have the capability to control the NB alternator, which is a big problem. I'm not sure what else you may encounter.

It doesn't sound like you can afford to turbo the car. I'm just making an observation.

I don't know but you may need to rewire the injectors for batch fire on an NB if using an MS1. I'm not the right one to ask.

Do you have a wideband and a stronger than stock clutch?

I would definitely consider a speeduino over a MS1.

I don't have a wideband and I have a new stock clutch for the moment.
I already wanted to try a megasquirt with a stock config

But if you tell me the MS1 is not a good choice for a NB, I don't buy it

You can use one of my alternator kits to control the alternator. They're on Ebay.

Won't work, you need at least MS2. My writeup is gone, maybe Brain still has his online somewhere.

Did the MS1 ever even support the NB cam and crank signals?

IIRC, like 13 years ago 99+ owners were putting the CAS from a 90-97 on the back of their head to run MS1. which IMHO is retarded.

Yeah I did not really want to mention that route. I also do not know if OP has 1.6 or 1.8 and such.
