any updates?

UBHSTRY

Yep, sure do have one...LOL I have some how ended up going down the path of a MegaSquirt for stand alone engine management. Just got it together, and had a VR-4 3000GT side track me a few weeks ago. Got it running well, and sold, so getting back to ole Lex now

Hope some people have used the megasquirt on these. If not, guess I have a long tall mountain in front of me. But, man, for the price, holly crap batman.

Actually, would be nice to kick up a cheap intake manifold like the TT supra. make my life allot easier. Cant get enough clearance off the turbo from the stock manifold.

Your exhaust housing is too large; thats why.

Not many (no Lexus owners that I know) have gone the Megasquirt route with the 2jz-ge. It requires some serious retrofitting depending on how you want to set it up.

With the megasquirt you pretty much have to make your own engine harness. But the versatility is really amazing on these things. Everything you need can be incorporated into fine tuning, right down to the IAVC and steps. In addition you have to know some intricacies on fuel injection and ignition. I.E. dwell, banks for injectors, duty cycle settings, etc. I have done alot of research on these and am planning on boosting a KA motor in the future and this system is what I am going to use. I hope you bought the new MSII, it seems to be well worth the money. I think if you take your time and do all your research you will be very happy with it in the end.

UBHSTRY

Its a learning curve, no doubt about that. But should be well worth it in the end. i may use this megasquirt in everything I put together for now on. Its pretty universal, as universal gets anyways...LOL

UBHSTRY

Yep, I got the MSII, the newest stuff. Including the Stim board that can define the trigger wheel.

SMP142
