Also any ideas on another good vaccume source? Before the MS installation I had my BOV and water injection solenoids T'd into the vaccume source that went into the Throttle Body. Well now I needed a source for the MAP sensor on the MS and have so far T'd into the same source used already. I dont think it will be a problem, but in case it is any ideas where else I can T my map sensor into for the MS?
In my car, there was a joint in the vacuum line between the manifold and brake booster. You could pull apart that joint and T in there for a very direct lead.
Alrighty, the timing was verified at a chosen angle of 62 netted a 9.8-10.1 degrees on the timing wheel when the timing was locked down in MS to 10 degrees. The variance was due to a idle surge. So kudos to all that helped develop the NGC code!
I am compiling a write up as we speak and I should have it done in the next few days. I will include a basic MSQ that will fire up the car, idle, part throttle and some light boost but, due to all the possible combos out there, I will make it go pig rich after a few psi.
can you just t off of the line going to the boost gauge its already in the car anyway? or would that be a bad idea somehow lol
When I wired in an e-manage for a friend, I used the boost guage line and found that the boost guage bleeds off pressure. When the guage wasnt teed in, more psi was seen by the e-manage. Then if you put the guage in the circuit about 1-2 psi less. This is from 15-19psi and only recording peak boost. There were no leaks in the lines other than the stock guage. I'd say to tee closer to the manifold, than at the end of a long line. It might make a difference

To add:
einstein's MSQ had a trigger angle of 61, so it was very close. And when leaving the PCM in control of IAC functions, you need to tee into the TPS so the PCM can still read it...

Good work. Email me an MSQ file that runs the SRT-4 and I'll add it to the zip archive as a "base map" of sorts.

Also, for those of you that are really brave... The MS2/Extra developers (MSnS-E for the new MS2 chip) have added support for the NGC 36-2+2. This is brand new "alpha" grade code so only hard core testers should use it. When this code gets finialized it will be real nice.

There's no way it could have come with MS2/Extra without an MS2 chip. But yeah, $90 ms2 chip and the alpha code.
Well mine has the MS2 extra....on the bottom of the box it doesnt have anything marked by MS I or MS II...the 3rd blank down it has MS2-Extra marked....cant remember the version # off hand...029V?
Edit....here is what it says from my order....
1 x MegaSquirt v3.0 ECU for 420A Engine
- MAP Sensor: 4.0-bar (44 psig)
- Upgrade to MegaSquirt II: Standard MS-I Controller
So it has the MS2 extra marked on the back of it....I am guessing I have it on the new board just needing the cpu now?

regardless of what you have, you'll probably get charged $90 for the upgrade anyway
