Just noticed this from diyautotune.com

A MS PRO mini...

https://www.diyautotune.com/product/the-ms3...-mini-ecu-only/

That is a KICK ASS little ECU that has long term fuel trims, VVT support, E/85 support and a bunch of higher-level ECU functions for $600!

This should work great on any 4 cylinder.
On a 4 it is sequential fuel/COP spark.
You can run waste spark on a 6-8 and sequential on up to 8 injectors.

It's got abilities that a T4 will never need but at that price point I don't think it can be beat.

Had it been available when I bought my M3X P+P (MSM Miata) from them I would have gone Pro mini.

I'd have saved $500...

Totally agree with Greg. DIY Autotune is a great company and their products have come a long way over the last 20 years. Though I do wish they chose some slightly better components on the Microsquirt. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

The Pro Mini looks really really cool. I also would have gone with this over an MS3.

DIY Autotune is a great company and their products have come a long way over the last 20 years.

I became familiar with them in the early- to mid-00s when I was racing an SR20DE-powered NX2000 and we were using this ECU called "Calumsult", where a friend (Calum) had chipped the stock ECU and installed on-board USB connectivity (a big thing back, then instead of having to pull the chip and use a Moates board to burn changes). I didn't know j-shat about tuning and was heading down to Road Atlanta, these guys invited me in to help tune the car and we won that championship race...

I talked 'em into building a PnP for the SR20DE (second one ever, as I recall, right behind the NA Miata) and I ran that and began to learn tuning...and the rest, as they say...

I think the original family has sold the biz but their service and support have continued to be excellent even since. - GA

You know Calum? That's pretty cool. His 'real-time' ECUs were all the rage as I recall. My friend had one on a SR20 in a B13 Sentra.

Also cool is you talking them into making a PnP. Maybe even cooler!
