i was wondering if anyone has any experience with
a megasquirt ECU? i installed one on my 95 Eagle
Talon 2.0 Turbo. it seems to be a great ECU. if i do
get a Macho. i would really think about installing it
on the truck and convert it to Fuel Injection.

here is a link to some of the install pics on my Talon.
i also used a patch harness so i did not have to splice
in to the original stock harness. that way it is easy to remove.

I think that FI is the way to go if you don't have to worry about emissions...much nicer power and driveability in weather, and not of the good ol dodge cold blooded take for ever to warm up syndrome with fi, just get in and go so to speak....I would do a couple of mine that way, but they require emissions out here.........as in alll of the emissions that the truck came with from the factory....
