I think we'll try a MS and work from there, if we hit a problem we'll try to work round it. Its the learning by doing I'm most interested in.
How did you come about your idea and original plan? Would you be willing to share any details?

Steveh,
I was already in the ECU business for a major company as a design engineer reverse engineering other ecu's to write chipping software for others
I wanted my own car tuned but at the time it cost 1000's to but a chip.
So after about 2 years work and learning to map, I made one from
scratch !!!
Sounds like a long time but when you consider the amount of software needed and design effort along with experimention and the fact it was ALL my own work it, it was fun and worked out great.
Unfortunately, when people see stuff like this they want you to sell it.
That was where I fooked up and the rest is history...LOL
I will help if I can but its a lot of work !!!
