Default Anyone here run MegaSquirt on a M42 yet?

I am looking at going with a MSIII(for current and future plans) setup from diyautotune and will need to know the number of teeth on the crank trigger wheel, the fuel injector opening size(to find proper fit high impeadance injectors), and what COP(w/voltage) setup everyone is using.


Edit, I will be running an e30 318is m42 in my e36. Starting from scratch for wiring.
Thank you.

you might want to ask on one of the car builder forums. There's megasquirt threads on Locost USA and Jalopy Journal.

For me, MS was way too big a PITA for my project. Went old school on Tetanus

One of the inmates here sells a Coil on plug kit, if your swapping engines why not check the trigger wheel yourself? Its right on the front of the engine, On the 95 M42..

E30 or E36 intake manifold? the E36 uses standard Bosch injectors, Honestly if you have to ask,, It would seem like you have more homework to do,, Injector choice depends on what else is done to the motor.. What RPM do you intend to try for...

Good Luck Post pics!
