just finished installing a megaspark on my 89 accord, so far it works great! I had a little trouble getting a trigger to work though, here is what i tried: ...
just joined the group today, i had an extra megasquirt assebled so last wendsday (7-30) i loaded the mega spark s19 file and wired it to my already "squirted"...

Does anyone here sale complete units. Im not that up to date with electronics but I have a bunch of friends who want to buy these and install them in their...
Hi, I am assembling Megasquirts and other handy items for megasquirt. The prices include parts and labor. Below are the items and their price: 199.95 for a...
Well, I managed to get my car running on the MSnS, but my optical sensor needs to be adjusted. As it is, it runs good around idle but with a little more ...
At rpms over 6000 MSS seemed to go into a revlimit mode. After some code review and some testing I found the problem, the output to the ignition module is "on"...
Great news Scott! Thought for a moment I was going to loose you to the EDIS guys. To avoid any cross-fire my best bet is to get the spark rotor to line up with...
Hi Magnus, ... Hahaha! At the moment the EDIS guys all require additional hardware. I believe it is entirely possible to supply the SAW signal to the EDIS...
Hi Scott! I will think about those "bells and whistles". I though I'd wait until a few cars had proven that the MSS is working before doing a lot of work on...
Just wondered if anyone had hooked MSS up using the relay board and what you did to bypass the FastIdle relay etc. I've finally got my Megasquirt ECU ready to...
I just finished loading the MSS code on my V2.2 MS board and it works great so far. I think i've figured out how to get the dizzy's hall sensor to trigger an...
I don't think it affects much. The standard MegaSquirt doesn't know what is up or down on the engine anyway ;-) When you start your engine you only have 50%...
One question. Are you SURE the ballast resistor is required? HEI fires 1/2 ohm coils directly in normal installations. No ballast required (or wanted). ... ...
I actually got it sorted out.. if you look at the board there are lots of passthru connections from one side to the other.. there are two such connections...
You do not need the ballast resistor with the GM HEI unit. It has current control and dwell control (I know, kinda the same thing) and will run any coil, even...
Well i dont have my car running on it yet but i've got MSS taking input directly from my Bosch Distributor and sending an ignition event to the stock VW...
Hi Clare, I am not sure it is required, but when I shorted across it to see if I got a hotter spark there was no noticable difference. Remember though that...
Thanks Mike, that's good to know. Scott. ... __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free, easy-to-use web site design software ...

Hi Clare, That's news to me. There wasn't any indication of pulse width limiting when I looked at the HEI output on the scope. I wasn't driving a coil at the...
The HEI limits current, which has the same effect as controlling dwell. Having the resistor in the line has two drawbacks. First, it is an extra possible point...
well i'm goint to be running the factory dodge distributor i dono if i can use the turbo dist becouse they have a window in one of the flaps wich is weird but...
Hi Clare, ... Both keep the coil from burning up, but otherwise very different. ... 20 years is a pretty good track record, and the car only sees ~1000...
I cant get MegaTune to run on either of my two laptops.. neither of them have comm1 which seems to be the default. One wants to use Comm5 <usb/serial adapter>...
Dave, Have you downloaded the latest version of MegaTuneSS from the files section? It has an option to choose which com port to use. It works well for both of...
I just downloaded the file a few minutes ago and used the installer and did the same yesterday on my laptop I know you can select the port but it seems like...
