I've adjusted afterstart enrichment a bit and it idles much more smoothly from cold (it had been stalling after a couple seconds) and using VE live to smooth out the running. It still bucks and stumbles some at low speed rpms, but less. Working on it.
Still would like to fix the fuel pump circuit.

I'm back from vacation.
Here's some photos of the MS2V3.
Perhaps you could point out anything amiss? Maybe point to the offending transistor? Not the greatest pictures, but I can take more if needed.

Oh wait...this resistor here is probably the culprit:
Replace it with a 1.0Ohm (one ohm), 1/2W resistor from Radio Shack (or temporarily remove it and replace it with a wire to test) and it should work.

Yes. Coil output is reversed on the megasquirt, and the fuel pump didn't run, so it took a while for me to get it right as I would work on it a little while off and on when I had time, then put the OEM computer back in as it's the DD, etc. I meant to get this going a long time ago, so it will wait until colder weather for me to start working on the turbo hardware--I just like to drive the Miata in good weather, and my daughter is driving my Acura until school starts anyway.
