i understand, matt is still a good port of call as he started off by building the megasquirts up from day 1 so he will be able to inform you on any extra bits you may or may not need, i was going down the megasquirt route but then matt has introduced the v4 which is a far supperior ecu, im also trying to get to grips with this side of tuning, there is a lot to take in when it comes to mapping but it realoly is intersting and fun
As for import tax I heard somewhere if you send it as a gift there is no tax to pay but I may be wrong. How far off is your birthday.lol
