Been lurking here for a while gleaning all of the excellent MegaSquirt info and decided to post up some info on our GRM $2008 Challenge project in hopes of getting some help
The car is an '89 Festy we picked up for $525 with a botched BP swap. The PO completed the swap but never got it running, I think mainly because of the hacked wiring (yes it's all butt splice connectors ):
More info can be found here: http://www.feoa.net/modules.php?name...wtopic&t=52156
We are currently trying to figure out how to wire up the MegaSquirt we picked up for $150 (MS-1 v2.2, will run MSnS-e). The harness is a mess and they unplugged everything for some reason but we were able to find all of the sensor clips (Disty, TPS, 3xtemp) with the exception of the coil.
The plan is to wire them into the DIY Autotune harness we have and we're currently trying to figure out what we need off the body harness for power/ground as well as relays for lights and other stuff. The team is 4 MEs and 1 EE so if he doesn't know what to do we'll be relying heavily on forums to figure this stuff out
Any pointers/tips would be greatly appreciated, I'll be sure to post plenty of questions once we get there
I'll leave you with a few pics of how the car currently looks:
