why dont you ask the person named AdderMK2.
he had a 94/95 cobra and RAVED about the mega squirt.
well guess what, he no longer owns it and does not rave about it any longer.

you have to put that POS together and to find "support", ha ha well good luck.
speed density is junk, a maf system is 100x better.

Coincidentally everybody in the sd section that knows how it works say mass air is garbage. There are ups to mass air & there are downs. Personally I'd take mass air over Sd with the stock computer or a piggyback, with a standalone I prefer sd.

Depends on how well you know your way around the car or how well you can read wiring diagrams. I personally find them easy

Adder couldn't figure out how to get his new engine started with it.
You don't have to put it together, some companies offer them already assembled.

If you don't know much about electronics or don't read the manual I would agree, ms is not the way to go for you. Personally I've had great luck with them, but I took the time to read the manuals. As for the support... I guess some people are just too smart to email the companies that assemble them... they were more than helpful for the first install I did on a car. I personally like the small price tag on a standalone, but I will say it does have quite a bit on it that does take a bit of time to learn your way on, but again that goes hand in hand with the reading part.

Of the people that know their way around it all of them seem to have a good time with it, there's even a guy on this forum running one which put down I believe 533whp in his 4 cylinder mustang with it.
