Here is a silly question: What is the difference between the * and Y on the chart?

Thanks for making this a sticky, makes it easier to figure out what's in my ECU

* means possible, modifications may be required.

What hi/low levels do you want to use?

There's a VERY simple hi/low solution that doesn't require anything from the ECU.

Cutting power to the EBC and running on gate?

Question my masculinity all you like, but I'd prefer to have something like 2-3 settings to choose from. I'd like to be able to throw the keys at people and have a reasonable expectation that when the car is returned, there is still rubber on the rear tires and the bodywork still resembles a Miata.

correct. if you don't want to run gate, you can still run a MBC as low.

Yep, thats how I plan on getting 3 settings: High, low, and gate.

I also plan on implementing boost by gear, traction control and launch control. ALLTHESWITCHES! Gods help me

For some reason I just imagined your car's interior looking more like the inside of an A380 cockpit...

That is a standard MegaSquirt-2 and does not look like a Reverant built unit, it does not even have the Miata connectors...

Or search...

Here's the thread where @thirdgen sold his MS3 for an NB1. Pics are there for you to compare: 99-00 MS3 PNP (custom in stock case). Maybe he sold another . The guy seems to be trying to scam you IMO.

@Reverant can comment if he wants to.

And $1500!!!

I already found the thread and contacted thirdgen... Also it's 1500 for a brand new mk turbo kit plus the ecu with a AEM wideband. so it's pretty fair imo. I'm just looking for clarification on the ecu before I drop the dough

Definitely not a unit from us. The guy is either clueless himself or he is trying to scam you.

I can tell you pretty much everything about that unit. Reverant had nothing to do with it. That started out as a MS1 that was running parallel on a 97. Then I put it in my 99 and many modifications were made until it became ms2 standalone. I drove my car for like 4 years with this ms, then I upgraded to MS3.
