I'm new to this list........ So Hello

Well - the title says it all.
I will probably keep my 1.7L for at least another year and I want to replace the 33 year old F.I. with something new.
I'll probably get new injectors too.

Has anyone converted to a Megasquirt on a 1.7L??
Any significant improvements over a properly running stock F.I. system??
Any negatives??
Easy to tune (I have a LM-1 Wideband meter)??
Any particular megasquirt model??

Any recommendations??

thanks

Anyway, I've been thinking of building an engine for a long time and would love to get away from the stock cam. The way carbs have skyrocketed in price leads me to believe that Megasquirt is the way to go. Kit Carsen FI would be nice but at $1500 it's kind of pricey.
