Finally got Mega running like a dream

A big thank you to Phil R, after trying to get my Mega Squirt tuned properly for most of this year ( ever since I designed and made my own induction system ) I gave in and went to see the expert. After an hour of messing with the laptop to sort out a completely new programme to control it all and then a couple of hours driving about :drive: :drive: it now runs like a dream. Really interesting to see someone who knows what they are doing setting it all up as I just drive about, and then being told 2 hours later it is done, no need for data runs and tweaking :thumb: :thumb: fantastic

Thanks Phil

Great news, Martin - imagine the performance boost you'll have now without having to cart your laptop around as well!!

Laptops do make rather bulky & expensive ECU's!

Not difficult to "keep up" with a chevy that has no propshaft.
