Wow, I could really ---- that solder job up. Just ask Projekteg. :P I couldn't imagine having to solder all that ---- togther.



I don't think I could fit that many empty beer bottles on my computer desk. You've got me beat. :(

soldering is fun just takes practice and the right tools

i agree, i love soldering, just hate desoldering :P if honda ecu's came with desoldered joints, i could chip an ecu in about 5 minutes :-\ damn, i didn't know ms was that cheap. i was thinking about boosting my xterra to get a few ponies, ms would be a much better option than the afc which is what i had in mind since i'm just looking for about 5-6 psi on it.

My buddy just got megasquirt for his eclipse, except I think he had somebody else solder it up for him cause he has no skills, lol. From what little I have read that is suppossed to be a pretty good system. Make sure you take pics and do a good write up Whitey (sure you were planning on it) and I think you should forget the case and house it in a Whitey bend box ;D Good luck mang.

desoldering sucks balls I hate desoldering obd0 ecu's there the worst I didnt realize it was that cheap either kinda cool

lol, I was looking at this nicely machined case and thinking "where's the ghettoness in this?" And yeah you can buy them complete, I wanted to build it myself becuase with this new project I'm doing I wanted everything to be custom so I can say to people "Yeah I built the fuel injection system from scratch, starting with a pile of resistors for the ECU." Here's where you can buy it complete:

I ordered my stuff through Glen's Garage and it was worth it. This guy labels each resistor and really packages everything nicely so its not really that overwhelming to see a pile of resistors. I paid $187 for everything but I also bought a "stimulator" ;) What this does is acts like a running motor so each part of the circuit board you solder, you than test it out and if it works you move onto the next part. This way you don't built the whole ECU than find out it doesn't work :-\ So if I build another one (hopefully I will) it will only cost $140.

Is yours going to be set-up so that you can switch between high or low impedance injectors? He said his was soldered on to some type of board so he could do that so he would not be limited in injector choices. I don't know enough about it to know if that is actually a standard feature or if it is an option that you have to solder up. Seems as if if would be as easy as having dip switches that would bypass the resistors or something of that nature. I dunno. My buddy is one of those people, you just kinda listen and nod when he is talking, because if you question something, or state something outside of his opinion, you get the sermon as to why his idea of thinking is better ::)
