Megasquirt

Post by chipdogg » Thu May 01, 2008 7:29 pm

Get unit, put together (unless you paid to get it done ahead of time, which ruins half the fun), hook up a few sensors and injectors, get a cheap/free laptop, download megatune, start clicking on menus and punching in number, replace plugs a few times, and it eventually will start.

Then tune it.

Done, it's that easy. Or that's how I did it. :lol:

Next up, how to get spark working :shock:

Hook up a few wires, punch in some numbers, and make sure spark output inverted is set to "yes". :lol:

Yup, that's the idea I got. But first we gotta tune fuel under boost, and the car won't stay in boost since the charge pipe pops off when you hit 5 psi (at 30% throttle according to the datalog, I didn't even get on it lol) and won't stay on. So I'm making him fix it before I drive it anymore. Sucks sitting in a driveway trying to hook it back up way back there with the hot ass turbo...

I got mine from Glen's Garage and put it together last April, it's still in a box in my room. My buddies both got theirs from rs-autosport, the super420a, which just got discontinued. Adam has had his for at least a year, his car runs awesome (built 2.0, hahn 20g, crane 16's, etc) and Matt's is the one we are hooking up (built 2.0, crane 18's, srt turbo <--upgrading to larger one soon). Both intense blue 98 R/T's. :)

I don't have pics, we aren't really picture freaks. I've only been taking pictures cuz I needed to put some up of cars I'm selling and figured since I had the camera and was gonna upload stuff anyways, why not snap a few more?

Maybe I'll take a pic of his driveway when I'm over there next. NYG sport coupe, white coupe with carbon fiber hood and 2.4 (I put that one in), and 98 IB r/t sedan all riced out, but turbocharged and now run by MS (cuz of me again). And his roommates 2000 purple atx sedan. He has a turbocharged 2000 Eclipse 4g64 5-speed there too.

Yup, he has the NYG, the 2.4L white coupe with nitrous on it, and the turbo 4 door intense blue r/t. You'd know if you saw any of them. White one has carbon fiber hood and paint peel. The NYG one is, well, NYG. And the R/T has a body kit, a bunch of stickers on it, and an intercooler.

We thought that was your car there, I see it there all the time.

Spark works on the R/T now, and we are installing megasquirt into his roommate's 2000 Eclipse 4g64. Should be running real soon too.

There's plenty of us around, hell there are 3 Neons parked out front here right now. Matt's turbo R/T, Matt's 2.4L white coupe, and my purple car. The NYG is in Madison, and I'm trying to figure out this 4g64 MS crap right now. And my turbo Lebaron is sitting out front too.
