Finally an affordable stand alone ECU for 2nd gen 3sgte owners!, Megasquirt Plug N Play! Options

[lagos]

After many years, Megasquirt has finally added official support for the 2nd gen 3sgte! This is pretty big news as it opens up the doors to ditching the afm, running bigger injectors and a better than stock tune in a product for only 800$.

Whats even better is that if you are on a budget and are handy with a soldering iron, you can build exactly the same thing for about $400!

And yes, before anyone asks, they are planning to add support for the 3rd gen 3sgte as well.

I'm a GEN2 owner as well...although I throw off the curve with my 5th Gen GT-S Having said that, I'm still going with AEM or HydraNemesis...which seems odd since I build harnesses for a living and the MS system would be right up my alley! hahaha

Why would you choose either of those besides their brand names?
Hydra seems cool, until you realize how expensive it is. They charge you 300$ extra for every new software feature you want to unlock.
AEM has a cool brand name and the software is fairly user friendly, but I've heard of hardware issues with it.

To me, PowerFC and now Megasquirt seem like the best options due to the fact that they essentially do the same thing at a much lower price point. You can buy the assembled Plug and Play megasquirt for 800$ AND it comes with a fully tuned fuel and spark map. Thats a killer deal!
