Engine management question.... Megasquirt??
I started this thread in the engine management forum, but I think that this Megasquirt is a fantastic option specially for those looking to DIY and saving lots of cash... I'm surprised I had not heard about before..

I am working on building a Megasquirt for the Evolution right now. I currently have a bench setup with a full engine wiring harness with the coil packs, cam and crank angle sensors. I chopped the connector from a stock ECU and used it to make an adaptor. So far, I got the coils to fire when triggered, but I'm not sure if they're being triggered at the right times due to the layout of the cam angle wheel. We'll see... I still haven't put it on a car and tried to start it yet.

I have gotten a LOT done since I first posted. I got the megasquirt to properly "decode" the cam/crank position trigger wheels so I have the coils firing at the correct time. The car is running now... starts up right away!
Also, I currently have been working on boost control (using the stock wastegate valve), and IAC control. I have tested these on the bench with success, but haven't tested on the car yet.
I still plan to fully tune using a wideband o2 when I get a chance. Also, to test the launch control/flat shift among other things on my list.

I know this is an Old Thread but I’m doing this know and I can’t find too much information on how to get it to work properly, could you help me ?

With an MSPro and a patch harness you can pretty much do whatever you need, if you're after a mega squirt that is. Unfortunately they don't have native DBW control though.
