Where did you end up mounting the Megasquirt ECU?
I tried under the passenger seat, but its not going to fit unless I add about 3/8 - 1/2in spacer to the back bracket. Any other ideas? Keep in mind I have AC, and the center console is already full of speakers. Enjoy! |

Thanks guys - especially Dave.
The trunk is sounding better all the time. I'll have to remove my fire extinguisher, but it was an extra any way. I have a smaller one under front pass seat. I want to build a metal screen cage to fit over it. This will protect it from anything in the trunk that's moving around. I use this car everyday, so both trunks get a work out. Anyone know where I can get some black perforated metal screen? About 1/6 in thick should do the trick. I've already picked out the spot for the relay board. There is a protected area just above the stock relay board. It will be away from heat, and protected from water as well. It's thin enough that I can still remove the stock relay board cover also. That reminds me. Do I HAVE to run the fuel pump from the MS board & software, since the teener has that taken care of already? I'll keep ya posted. |
