    Still having a hell of a time getting Tunerstudio to connect to MS. It won't connect with the serial->usb cable or the bluetooth adapter. I've tried my laptop and my tablet too. Pretty annoying!

      Stumped the efi analytics guys and also the guy who built my MS2 e30 ecu. Sending the ecu back to him today so he can examine it. Hopefully its a quick fix.

        You've been busy in the time that I've been pretending that I don't own a project car.

        I think you and I need to have a sit down talk about parts and what not.

        Looks awesome man I cant wait to see videos

            Thanks man! Yeah for sure. I'd be down for a little sit down talk about stuff. I am in limbo mode right now due to my megasquirt connection issues. Otherwise I am sure I would have been driving around by now.

                That's the next step. I will try using my tablet with Bluetooth connector (tomorrow hopefully) and see what happens.

                    Found a source in Portugal for group 2 parts and picked up the missing link to my kit, the front airdam

                    0c8837caa7bd25153311e95312d07635.jpg

                    Figured out the stupid connection issue and got the car running and idling on its own too.

                      Did some more idle tuning, but was cut short when I noticed oil dripping bad from under the car. Turns out the exhaust manifold melted a hole in the turbo oil feed line. Time to make a new line and route it differently.

                                  It idles extremely well, just needs some road/load tuning (video posted probably wont show for tapatalk users)

                                    ^^^ so much win!!!

                                    Brian (snap) came over tonight and helped do some idle tuning on the ole Megasquirt. Running way better than it was before. I have a small coolant leak and exhaust leak to tend to, but other than that sounds super smooth and healthy.

                                        Does the push button start activate the efan when pushed at 13k clicks per minute when the car is stalled mid traffic?
