all i know about it is that alot of people use them in 2.3 fords. thats how i learned about them when i have my 2.3 turbo merkur xr4ti. but i was wondering if anyone used them for hondas.

from the company they are a parts kit that needs to be solderd, but i know alot of people buy the parts kit, asemble them, then sell them to make a little bit of a profit. id rather buy one that way then screw up my own. im soldering retarded.

Mega squirt is ok for vehicles that dont have better choices. We run them on some Rhinos, and sand rails weve done. When you have choices like Neptune RTP, and Hondata as well as all the freeware stuff out there for Honda. Just my .07

mega squirt is a build it yourslef ecu, i have run them on honda preludes, for the price it works great and has a lot of options for a very low low cost, it works on any 4cyc 6 or 8
best part is you are not limited to any one vechile

^ what he said. its a standalone engine management system thats DIY to keep down on cost. alot cheaper than other things but just as effective as most. i just want to know who was running it and had anyone ever tried the EDIS with the megajolt piggyback. and also wondering that crank trigger thay were running. just stuff like that. i was thinking about running one in my upcoming build.
