So I got a call from Adam @ XAT Racing here in Tampa, they are a performance shop here in tampa that specialize in imports. They installed a EMS for me that they were experimenting with called the Mega Squirt. I had heard good things about it from my guy at Stadium Toyota who put one on a MR2. So to make a long story short when i took it to them, they asked me what kinda of numbers i wanted. I was like i want in the area of 230-240 Hp to the ground he was like "we'll see what we can do, we'll try".

So i get a call back today and he was like
"Your car is ready to be picked up"
I was like "cool, but i cant come get it till monday"
He was like "cool..hey we didn't get that 240hp you wanted."
I was like what did it make?"
He was like "256!"
I was like "0 shyt!, did alot better than i expected (i cant remeber the torqe # he said but ill post a scan of the sheet)

>> cant wait till monday >>

don't forget to post the dyno sheet

def. wanna see dyno results! sounds whoop-ass too!

No doubt soon as i get them they will be posted.

Wow!

Do you have an SAFC? I hear nice gains with it properly tuned. I gotta get myself to the dyno, my 3s isnt where i'd like it to be.

Wow, those numbers with a second gen 3s? What boost are you running? How many miles are on the engine?

So what exactly is this "megasquirt"? i am curious? i dont have a 3sgte, but i want to know what i could hit with my 5sfe, with that thing, or if it can even be installed???
Thanks,
DJMC

and this is on just a rebuilt 3sgte with the stock ct26?

256 whp is a lot of power, should have some fun.

THE TURBO WAS UPGRADED TO A 50 TRIM COMPRESSOR WHEEL AND a ten degrre clip on the exhaust...some people go with a 46 and ten degree clip..or a 50 trim and a 12 degree clip...my understanding is i should have gotten a 12 degree clip... >> but hey its a fun car to drive man >>

is the engine stock other than that?

hey its monday.. so what time are you going to go pick that bad boy up?

Ok so i picked the car up today...BIG DIFFRENCE....when i get back from Radio shack, ill post pictures of the new harness, the EDIS system and the mega squirt.



>> Bad news >>

So after i paid the guy I asked him for the dyno sheet..well there was a problem, the Dyno the use is in Lutz (about an hour away from tampa) and they left it up there. So we tried to get the guy from the other shop to email it and it seemed like it was a big hassle... so i was like ill come back up here on my day off and get the sheet..so unfortunatly i have to wait till saturday to show yall on paper. but the final # were 256fwhp and 241ftlb torq. I know this might get the but i swear to yall its the truth.

Also.
They forgot to hook up my Spedo they needed the wiring diagrams (..i also will bring this up with me on saturday.

actually... that i know of you don't have to use stock computers with the megasquirt...... i can't remember how the guys i know are setting theirs up...

but yes, it's a cheap way to do it.... the most difficult part of it all is setting up the crank sensor that the MS needs..... and from my knowledge, they're around $150 to build
