PMS. its a piggy back with a stand alone feature. light throttle and cruising around town or freeway the pms is just a piggy back to the stock computer. i have stand alone set to activate at 50% and 2000rpms. this means when im above 2000rpms and at 50% throttle the pms runs the car completely

MegaSquirt built, tested and ready for install......have quite a bit to do to the car before I can install & get it running/tuning. It is VERY promising though, it gives you complete control.

255lph pump

Factory gages +
Boost
Oil Pressure
Fuel Pressure
