My tuner did comment on tuning it, he was very impressed with the system. With the enhanced functions you can run multiple, switchable fuel and ignition tables. This gives you the ability to really get the car dialed in for Vtec/boost and also lets you have a very smooth AFR target at any load/RPM.

Do you have an obd2 dongle for your phone? Would love to see a screenshot of the obd2 monitors supported

Thanks for the info!

I've been talking to Jei about tuning my supercharger build, and he mentioned that he was really excited tuning your car. What are your plans with the car and the MS3? flex fuel with 8 injectors with FI?

Has anyone got the link to the software you use to set the ecu up?

I really like the idea of using the traction control as i have a racelogic and AEM at the moment but i like the idea of intergrating it all into one ecu. Especially as the wiring from all the wheel sensors is already done and could quickly be attached to the ecu

I've been crazy busy during the holidays so I will be getting my smog on Wednesday. I'll post my results as soon as it's done.

No I don't have an OBD2 dongle for my phone. I will take some pictures during the smog to see what exactly is supported.

My plans are to build it out as a street car, I have a dedicated track car so I'm not interested in tracking it. I will be going turbo here very shortly and I want to make sure that I can retain a streetable car under low load conditions but have enough fuel to support my power goals. I like the idea of having a street car that can walk all the Ferrari's and Lamborghini's in the area.
