I just saw this on Facebook - posted by DIY Autotune. I figured you cats in the know might have some deets. :-) Guess not. I haven't been on here a lot lately so I didn't want to assume this was a surprise.
So anyone know anything? I'm just curious. Don't imagine there's any compelling reason to go with this over just updating my MS1.

While I didn't ask, I'd see no reason they wont release this for 90-05. We arleady have DIYPNPs running those years.

Very cool. I guess that 1st gen MSpnp9093 in my green car is now effectively a paper-weight when it comes time to replacement. Where are the details on the DIYAutotune exchange plan?

Response from my question on the DIYAutoTune facebook page
Onboard Peak-n-Hold drivers allow you to run any injectors you'd like, hi-z or low-z.
Improved Knock Circuit that is tuned for the knock frequency of the engine and eliminates noise based on RPM.
Det Can output allows you to plug in headphones to the knock circuit and listen for knock while you tune!
CanBUS is brought out to the spare connector allowing easy addition of external can devices.
Base maps will come ready to fire the car up easily and fine tune. (this is available for some DIYPNP applications, but not for the majority of them)
We are beginning work to build a larger network of tuners that are familiar with and tuning MSPNP Gen2's as well. When we put these in their hands and they see how easily they install and are tuned, and how the results are as good or better than what they've been using, they'll become very familiar with TunerStudio and MSPNP, and that will be a good thing for all of you. We started putting an emphasis on this at PRI, and have further plans to grow and expand this shortly after the release of the first models.
They'll have a warranty since we built and tested them here. Kits are only warrantied against DOA components, not the assembled final product since we didn't do it/test it here.
That's what I see right off the top. I probably missed something....

We looked into offering this as an extra cost option. It got as far as a working prototype. Turned out to be cheaper to use an off the shelf Bluetooth dongle, and the internal Bluetooth design wasn't any easier to use.
The first Miata MSPNPs out the door will be for '90-'93 and '94-'95, but we plan to offer NB versions in the future. One of the reasons for the Gen 2 design was that the Gen 1 design wasn't flexible enough to make a NB Miata MSPNP.

correct. and they already have access the NBs in the shop. The only thing that would be holding them back is the alternator control circuit they'd have to build in...otherwise running the NB is nothing new to them. Like I said, we already have MS2 running 90-05.

If I want to run sequential fuel, an NB crank sensor w/ modded CAS for the CMP should I look at the MSpnp2 or MS3?
How much and how soon could you do one for my 1991? (PM me if you want)
I feel like I should "grow up" and put a better computer in my turbo car, its keeping me up at night.
