Price is a lot yes, but I really like the simplicity of them.
I have always liked the five spoke wheels

Buy it already!!!

I mentioned that my kiddo broke my PS3 by pulling it off the shelf. I decided to take a gander at it and was able to fix it. The wifi antenna broke off of its circuit board and there was a broken solder joint on one of the diodes. It now works again. You should all be so proud of my soldering skills. kidding.
If I thought I could solder worth a darn I would be building my own MS2 ecu rather than buying it.

Any reason for ms2 vs ms3x?

e-fan control would be nice (but I dont have an e-fan), vvt control would be nice (but I have an M20
). MS3 would be great but MS2 should be keep me plenty busy fiddling around with it. MS3 would happen if I ever went 24v. -
E-fan control? Man I have been swamping myself if ms3x the past two days and I have not read anything about that...
I suppose the m20 would be silly to apply ms3 to, and ms3x is what my 24v is getting!

Heres a nice chart to break down the differences

Oh, just purposing a medium current output as a fan.
I knew that much lol, just didn't think of running a fan on the output.

Im imagining the output triggering a relay which switches the fan from off/low/high depending on coolant temp. I know that someone on r3v was using the inputs and outputs to create a traction control system.

Fan triggering would be nice, and completely controllable!
Traction control
I have been thinking of how to do that for a while now.Sent from the future. Or my phone, who knows.

In theory you could just take the rear wheel speed(Abs) sensor and the front wheel speed(Abs) sensor and make a table of their inputs and when they get beyond a threshold or percentage difference have it cut fuel or spark or what have you.
Once again, in theory

Yeah, I was thinking something pretty much along those lines. Write a piece of C code with some conditional statements involving wheel speeds: if ((RR-RF)/RR)< x then retard timing __ degrees or if ((LR-LF)/LR)< x then retard timing__degrees and experiment with what value x needs to be so that you arent hitting TCS while cornering, and include another conditional so that if VSS<5 mph x would be a different number so the TCS wouldnt kick in as soon. It would also be possible to tap into the ABS control unit and have the ABS brake that 1 wheel rather than pulling timing.
-
I like the idea of the timing retard given a low difference of speed.
Threshold idea came from the fact that cornering would cause wheel speeds to change around.
Good thought on the vss wiring for high speeds, smaller reactions would be perfect.
Tapping into the Abs would take some knowledge... But be awesome!
Edit: you could actually write a full body traction control then, even include cornering stability.
