Has anyone used or currently have this setup? I am interested is how it handles for off-road. I currently have a turbo 2110 Stroker motor and would love to have it fuel injected.  |

There are lots of ways to do it. I've done a couple, doing another right now. It would be ideal in an off-road environment. |

I’ve never personally had dealings with Mario at the Dub Shop but I’ve never read a bad word about him , only praise .
He would be a good place to start your inquiries.

I have a full Mexi EFI setup for my 1915cc. I cobbled it together myself but a used a lot of Dubshop hardware from Mario. I think he is top notch. He is very good for the "techy" side of the VW hobby. He went from a small gig to a nice shop with a water brake dyno very quickly. I like his willingness to invest in expensive tools to make his product better- 3D printer, laser cutter, Land&Sea dyno, automatic wire cutter and stripper, etc.

once you get over the mountain of the learning curve of the megasquirt, it seems to be an excellent system. i love it.

It used to be you could go to the junk yard and save a few bucks to fab stuff yourself........but with Mario's quality crank trigger and sensors.....along with the IAT and CLT sensors he builds that bolt on....it's not worth trying to find that stuff yourself.
All his stuff is basically bolt on and it works with whatever ECU you would spec with him.
I speak from 10 years experience with his products. I started in 2012 and have not had one failure related to his parts.
