Mega vs. Micro Squirt

[Intrinsic]

What is everyone's opinion regarding using the Mega vs. the Micro Squirt on my Fastback.

DIYAutoTune recommended the MicroSquirt as I don't have boost or other considerations, just planning on a fuel and spark control setup.

Thanks

micro was designed for moto applications. Mega is upgradable, who knows if you decide to go big down the road.

Well, one thing good about the microsquirt is that you can mount everything very close to the engine and not have to worry about running long lengths of wire. However, supa is right about being able to upgrade. I actually was going to purchase the microsquirt, but they were out of stock when I purchased everything. Went with the MS2 instead. I still want to do the microsquirt though.

After reading the "MicroSquirt3" info page ( http://www.microsquirt.info/ ) I see a couple of reasons not to use it:

1. Can only drive one low impedance injector per bank
2. No internal MAP sensor

Easily solved by using high impedance injectors and an external map sensor. The external sensors can be mounted on the engine somewhere. I'm running high impedance injectors on my car right now.
