Type 4 megasquirt Options

[r_towle]

I am looking for a roll call with details on any type 4 EFI people.

hope we can keep this thread on track.

Please tell us

What size motor
What EFI brain are you using
What throttle body setup do you have
What size injectors are you using

ignition?
And any data logging?

The injection I'm currently running on my 2056 below is actually destined for a 2316cc race motor (That's why I have oversized 45mm ITBs on a 2056. . .)

2056cc
MS3X
45mm ITBs
35# PICO injectors 35psi
36-1 wheel w/ Hall sensor
LS2 COP sequential
Cam sensor for full sequential fuel
The MS3X ECU has an SD card input for direct datalogging off the ECU. I mounted a button and LED on my gauge console for starting and stopping datalogging. I then use Tuner Studio to view and make changes.

this is close to what I want.

Please tell me more about the data logging.
Do you put the SD card in, press the button and it starts data logging....
Then take it out, put it in the PC and read it? Then tune it from there, and do it all over again?

What are you doing for ignition?

And finally....did you build the ECU or do you buy these Megasquirt ECU units all built?

This is the ECU I have.

You can see the SD card slot in it. I use it for logging when I don't have my computer handy or when I can't have any device in the car (like racing). I wired a simple momentary button with an LED to my gauge console so I can activate the logging and deactivate it from the drivers seat on the fly. I think I have mine to record up to 10 minutes at a time when activated. Then I can just pop the SD card into my computer when convenient. This ECU also uses a USB plug on the ECU so you don't need to mess with serial plugs and adapters.

I'm planning to upgrade to the Bluetooth transmitter like Crash914 mentioned so I can just go cordless to my laptop.

I'm using this cam sync to run sequential injection and on the bottom of that page, I also have the type4 36-1 set-up which uses a hall sensor. I also use his LS2 coils, ITBs, harness and CLT sensor, Tangerine cable linkage. It all makes for a flawless package.
