The MegaSquirt Project has experienced explosive growth other the years, with hundreds of new MS installations occurring every week - a phenomenal success! MegaSquirt has been successfully used in all aspects of Internal Combustion engine applications including R&D, Industry, Race, and Research. The MS project has transformed itself from a simple R&D project into a full-featured mature engine control system. To reflect this the support structure has also changed to meet the needs of MegaSquirt Users.
Moving forward, the R&D forums for MegaSquirt project are in a read-only mode - no new forum posts are accepted.
However the forums will remain available for view, they still contain a wealth of information on how MegaSquirt works, how it is installed and used. Feel free to search the forums for information, facts, and overview.While the R&D forum traffic has slowed in recent years, this is not at all a reflection of Megasquirt users, which continue to grow year after year. What has changed is that the method of MegaSquirt support today has rapidly moved to Facebook, this is where the vast majority of interaction is happening now. For those not on Facebook the msextra forums is another place for product support. Finally, for product selection assistance, all of the MegaSquirt vendors are there to help you select a system, along with all of the required pieces to make it complete.

Alright with all my bugs worked out, i finally got this thing running decently... took it to the track and its still slow, and still has rough spots in the tune..but i did get some datalogs so can you tell me how this looks..
Ms1, Main board v2.2, code v2.98 and an older version of megatune..
run 5 was done after a little pit tuning, after looking at the datalog on run4
One thing i noticed is the air temp shows real hot. I wonder if its heat soaking? Anyway, you got that idle set real good. Nice and smooth. Time to turn up the boost! Although you might need some bigger injectors. ;)
I will second, your MAT is really high for only 4 psi of boost.
I suspect you would get more power without the turbo and with some nice cool intake air. (You could do the math and calculate the air density. I'm too lazy.)
yeah, i have an intercooler..
sorry, the IAT sensor isn't exactly in the intake stream. I need to get a bung welded in to put the sensor in...so its kind of just chilling (not really) in the engine bay, hence the hot temps
Your just wasting your time without an actual IAT. And if this is the temperature the intake is getting... gag! You might as well put on a restrictor plate too.
It is used by the computer to calculate the air density and thus the required fuel.
