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.

So heres the story I built my engine installed my engine built my MS installed my MS and now I dont have a clue how to tune it. I look at the megamanual and it might as well be in greek. I am just not getting it. I am just looking for someone that knows what they are doing to help me get this thing tuned in. I am sure I could figure it out with help or someone can just tune the damn thing. I will pay cold hard cash based on experiance. Heres the setup I am running.
Car:
1996 Mitubishi Eclipse with a 420a motor
Star stage 2 turbo kit
DSM turbo 440cc injectors
All the little extra bells and whistles that are needed to run turbo and MS
I am located in Southern michigan 20 mins east of Coldwater 35 mins south west of Jackson. Very easy to get to and will give travel bonus or trailer car to your location.
I'm by the Indiana state line, but as well as him, my MS car isnt running.. not due to me being lazy, or not being able to tune.. due to faulty hardware.
Hey hal0n Dexter isnt to bad from me only like an hour. Please contact me at storm94@hotmail.com if your interested. Anyone else thats interested please email me there with some information about your experiance with MS.
I dont have MS on my car yet and i am slowly reading up on things - if you decide to do it yourself i can help interpret some of the stuff ( I am an engineer - so i guess i should be able to read "technical" documents....)

Thanks for the offer, I am also an engineer so I also "should" be able to read these documents. I just can't understand how the software works and the readings that I see on my screen. I will have to read up some more and see what happens. shameem I will keep you in mind. If I have questions will give you a shout and see if you can help me.
You really should do reasonably well following the steps in the Megamanual, seaching on topics you don't quite get, and just plugging away at it. Then, if you really get stuck, post specific questions along with your MSQ file and you'll most likely get the help you are looking for.
