  • Megasquirt II ECM

    Does anyone have any experience with this ECM kit? You buy the PCB and assemble it yourself, or some people have pre-assembled ones. Its just an aftermarket ECM, and im wondering what advantages it has over a GM TPI ECM.

      TPI MAF or TPI Speed Density ??? I don;t think its nearly as good as the stock PCM in most cases.

        I have heard of quite a few people using it for their 3.4l turbo fbody build ups. Allows them to tune it since there is no 3.4 tuning out there. Most guys are happy with the setup from what I hear.

          The car is '165 MAF car, however the megasquirt II has a built in MAP and runs speed density or alpha-n. The megasquirt would allow me to run a wideband O2 instead of a regular O2, as well as having a nicer tuning utility.

            You could adapt a different 3.4L pcm to the car without to much effort.

              In addition to this, the MegaSquirt would allow me to run a ford EDIS-8 ignition system so I could do away with my distributor and run an Lt1 intake.

                          You could do that. the EDIS-8 is a decent ignition system.

                            The only major hurdle is mounting the trigger wheel to the crank pulley.

                            I think it would be worth it though, to get the wasted spark ignition and do away with the dizzy.

                              We've gone as far as putting Opti guts in a regular dizzy and will be running a LTCC with COP on our gen1 sbc with 2 turbos. Hard to beat the LT1 pcm logic.
