injection and ignition mate, has 2 injector drivers that can each run 1 low impedence or 4 high impedence injecters per driver.

so can run up to a v8 (not idealy) or can run batch injection on a 4 cylinder and ford EDIS wasted spark ignition.

can run boosted engines with suitible map sensor.

just like the look of it for me running a N/A 1.8 16v in my nova, possibly on TB's

It can run a v6 ok, just using batch injection, by firing 3 of the 6 injectors at a time. not ideal but it would run fine.

if i was running anything bigger than a 4 cylinder or a boosted setup, i would look at full megasquirt for the extra features and injector drivers IMO

id like full megasquirt but i also like the fact that this is fully programable injection and ignition for Ł299 with unterminated loom and USB connection.

microsquirt can be had for around 299

megasquirt is more like 450-500 all in unless you build it yourself

Here you go, megasquirt all the way, for the sake of Ł150, you can have the all seinging all dancing ecu fully assembled. But thats just my opinion, each to their own
