Megasquirt? What's the Situation? - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

rkreigh · 01-24-2021

base ms3 pro is about 1100 with the fly wiring that you need to install

you essentially take away all the engine management functions and there are issues with interfaces for mileage computer, security, ect...

gauges work fine. you for sure WANT to run coil on plug and I think the ecotec 4 turbo coils or the merc marine coils plug in perfectly

the megasquirt can drive the 16 injectors fine and has dual wideband, flex fuel capability, and a wide range of boost control and tuning features that make it a very good option for anyone that has "lost the dis"

the LT5 ignition system is quite good, and works fine, but since they are going up in price, the MS is a viable alternative. The raptor "plug and play" version retains the stock ignition system which I wasn't fond of as selling a "good DIS" will about pay off the megasquirt

I'm looking to do this, as the tuning opportunities are significant and the coil on plug is superior and much less hassle to maintain.

If anyone needs a DIS, reach out to me. I have one off my 95 and would for sure pass it on for the right price to a needy owner. Jerry is working on reverse engineering and will likely have a solution soon, and fortunately the DIS rarely fails. But when confronted with that, know that there are options!!!
