MegaSquirt trigger wheel sensor solution, What's your design?? Options

[draganc]

Hi guys!

I’m planning to upgrade my D-jet system on a 75 2.0 (2056) with a MegaSquirt system.

I’m still debating how to mount the trigger-wheel-sensor and would like to see some of your solutions.

Thank you for your input,
Dragan

I am doing some MS test work now.. I ended up using an electromotive 60-2 toothed wheel and electromotive sensor to do the job.

Which MS setup? Did you get your hands on the new MS-III ?

Understand clearly that my use of MS is basically not by choice.. I am basically having to interface with the system to gain a first hand set of experiences with the system because it is becoming popular enough and working well enough to demand understanding.. I plan on running two separate FI systems in my 912E when I get it reassembled next month. The car has already ran 3 different systems in the past.

Trust me, I really don't want to have to screw withMS, because I still have scars from it. If I didn't interface with it I'd be just as closed minded and backward as the people who I complain about continually.

That said, I chose MSII rather than MSIII because my MAIN GRIPE with MS is that it is too equipped with bells and whistles that pull the tuner/ user away from the task at hand with the engine...

A system is no good at all if it is too complicated to interface with.. A TIV doesn't need a bunch of crazy features to be properly tuned. Keep it simple.

I have the opportunity to test another system alongside what I already have planned, I am open to working with you on it.. We have already offered a D/L jet retrofit kit in the past and could easily compare some differences.

I have to agree with Jake, I been trying to get MS1 extra too run on my engine.
If you don't use stock parts, injectors, intake manifolds, plenum chamber,etc.
You will run into problems!!! The only help I got was reading through all the manuals MS1,MSII and MSIII, the answers were there but were hard to find, if
you want a example change from MAP to TPS and see how many tables you have to change.
