Just starting on the MS installation on a disposable 850 engine on a test rig, but for the love of XXX will can someone tell me how to get the megatunix to work so I can play with the ECU I borrowed?

you could always get an old machine and throw a linux distro on it. keep meenig to put megatunix on my linux box downstairs, but not got round to it yet.

Thanks evolution, I just tried to install it on my very old workshop pc that runs linux as well and it's an enigma to me! So I will go for megatune for now on the old pc at least that has a serial port which makes life easier :). Would be cool to have it running on a mac though.

Peter, One thing you also have to be careful about is which version of megasquirt you want to run. Megatunix does not support all versions completely. So if you're planning on using MSnS-e or MS-II, Megatune is a better choice. By the way, on another subject, did you see TurboDave's suggestion about financing an MS-II ECU for software development (by myself) and engine testing (by Marcel)? If that's something you may consider, you can pm or email me. Jean Thanks Jean! I would be more than happy to fund the MS module for the mag, no problem. Will send an email/PM later. I have decided to use the workshop PC for now as it has a serial port makes life easier. Have mocked up and inlet now using an old st1 manifold with injectors wedged in it. I take it they need to be as close to the ports as possible? I will then use the old SU base as a TB and cut the rest off, fab a cold air induction kit for that and it should do. I am restriced to around 50 bhp with the K series injectors, but that doesn't matter for a stock 850 to start with...doesn't matter if that leans out. Will snap some pics next week and post. Peter

Thanks evolution, not just me then! I am good with that sort of thing and I had a mate who installs bank unix networks and routers try it last night and HE couldn't get it to work either, so no hope for the rest of us :)
