I first found out about Megasquirt from Kyle (2000 Turbo GT) while I was in the middle of putting my Turbo kit in my car. I don't really understand why I went with the idea but I'm glad I did! I'm also currently Megasquirting my Integra, so lets hope I will have another success story posted soon.

Aaron,

Very, very nice. What trans are you putting in it? I'm betting on a nice viper-spec T56, since the IRS swap tells me you are a road racer.

Actually I'm still in between what I want to do for the Transmission. On one hand, your right, the Viper Spec T56 is a GREAT transmission, but on the other hand, I'm trying to see if I could get away with a built TKO 600 for weight reasons. I'm still trying to figure out exact specs on both but if the weight is at least within reason, I might look at the T56 simply because it's so close to the ground. Until then, I'm going to run 400whp on my stock T45 with a semi-weak cluch (Centerforce dual friction). I'd rather have the clutch slip than the transmission blow up. I like to look at the clutch as somewhat of a fuse

By the way, this is the guy that did almost all the initial work, building the Megasquirt and installing it. I mostly just cleaned it up a bit. I'm goina work on an MS-II for it here soon. Car never ran this well before Geek got into it!

Looks good, just tube out the back half and you're all set.
