Default MS3 mini recommendable and where to purchase?

Hey guys,

I would like to replace my Greddy EMU soon.
At the moment my setup contains a 1993 miata with B6 engine and GT2560R. But the B6 should get replaced to a BP engine in the future.

The research for a new ECU ends up with the MS3 mini.

Here are two links:
BOFI Racing - MS Labs MS3 Mini Review - Megasquirt Your Miata / MX5
https://www.miataturbo.net/ms-labs-m...s3-mini-96266/

I think this ECU should work well for my setup.
Do you agree?

Does it matter, where I purchase such a MS3 mini? Or is this product always the same, wherever I purchase this?

Till now, I have only found two shops, that offer this MS3 mini.

One of them is a Tuner here in Germany. He offers that MS3 mini for 1030$.

The other one is this:
MS Labs MS3 Mini (Plug and Play ECU) ? BOFI Racing

If the shipping is free (I hope that is the case), their price would only be 825$.


A further question depending the last link. I need to choose 4 options. Just to be sure
Chassis: I select 89-93, although I am going to swap to BP engine, right? (ECU harness stay the 1993 one)
ECU Plug: to be honest, the installation of my EMU was 10 years in the past, so I really don't know if 2 or 3 plug is the correct selection.
Engine: 1.6 or 1.8? I want to install it now at my 1.6 but later use the 1.8. But because the harness stays 1993, 1.6 is the right one?
Origin: Miata (got a canadian one)

Thanks for your advices!
and
Best regards from Germany

Match the ECU to your harness/car.

I only found that homepage where you can't do anything:
https://www.mslabs.gr/
and that sheet:
https://www.mslabs.gr/mslc.html

Is that the site where you recommend to order?

I believe an NA6 should have a 2-plug ECU.

If you're in Germany, BofiRacing are a UK/EU distributor for him if you wanna go through an intermediary for any reason.


Edit: Just realised you linked the review i wrote for Bofi for the MS3 Mini! Teach me not to read properly!

I have one of his MS3 Minis on my NB and cannot fault it! Any questions or real-world stuff you wanna know, feel free to ask!
