If the software to control an ECU (paid for or free) to get into an ECU is not available (to the public I mean) then I think its a dead duck eek I would hate to be at the mercy of someone/company to alter/tune any ECU I wanted to use irked

Well guys, if you want to keep your car pretty standard looking but would like a better set up come and speak to Mark Adams. If you don't mind junking the lucas system, go mega squirt.

Simples!!

Either way though get somebody that knows what they are doing to set the thing up, it makes the world of difference.

Does this mean that Mark is tuning RV8s with Megasquirt installations ?

If I get my car back by then, I'll certainly consider it. I had the Tornado chip and setup by Mark before I switched to Megasquirt. Recently I wish I'd stayed with it !
