Well if you want to MS you better get on the bus and get interested otherwise you are in for disappointment tongue out you really only get the best from this kind of kit if you read/listen IMO getting a drive-in-drive-out ECU is not my idea of fun & not knowing fk all about it getmecoat No offence like bounce

hehe Daz unless you want enough options to make your head explode drunk seriously though MS2 is all the RV8 needs IMO if you want to go full sequential then this would be one of the biggest reasons to go for the MS3 for a bit more economy low down RPM behavior/manners etc wink it can do a hell of a lot of other stuff and as lots of outputs to control just about anything you want to scratchchin if you watch those vids Phil Ringwood shows you with the drop down boxes/menus eek it will even wash the car & walk the dogs laugh Oh yeh! & the box is bigger hehe

Sorry they are boring, if anyone has managed to listen to the latest 9 videos without falling asleep then you need more help than an MS can give rotate

I will be making some more in the next few days, so if anyone is suffering from insomnia Im here to help.

I have thought long and hard about doing a day for you MS users, but its hard to know what to cover as people would all be at different levels. I would also like Shaun to be involved, as he is very experienced with the RV8 and MS, so it would need to cover his expenses to get down to Norwich. I would also like a good turn out, so agreeing a time /place could be hard work. Finding a suitable space or venu is also not easy.
thanks
Phil

I've watched all Phils videos now and nowhere does he tell you where the mixture screw is on MegaSquirt.

My Canems thing better come with a mixture screw or I'm buggered.

Am I missing something confused
