going to megasquirt

well since i have once again outgrown my injectors,and lowering the fp even more to compensate,im quessing the car isnt going to idle/part throttle drive very well.so ive finally broken down and bought a fully assembled mega squirt.
atleats now ill be able to do some real tunning,instead of relying on my wideband/fmu, and adfpr to do my tuning.

the main thing that was keeping me away from going with mega squirt in the first place was having to build a whole new wiring harness,but i found a guy on ebay that makes pre assembled harness,alls i have to do is cut th ewires to lenght and solde ron all the sensor/conector pigtails.

hopefully its a good as everyone says it is,but i quess ill soon find out

why solder. just replace the connectors inserts. car quest/parts place has an *** load of them. I did that to fix my window connector when the wire shifted and ripped out
