    x2 for megajolt.

    bought the unit straight from autosport labs, dad soldered it up.
    was pretty fiddly though, would recomend buying the ready built one.
    Am yet to put in the car but definately what im running with

    Yerp, x3 for Megajolt, go with the MAP type, lots easier to set up..no need for throttle position sensor(TPS).

    Have a look here for more info on Megajolt:

    http://www.autosportlabs.net/Main_Page

    And here for the bits (EDIS 4 is much more common in the UK):

    I'm using TPS version which seems to work fine for what i need, with MAP and multiple cabs u need a vacuum reservoir and from what i've read lumpy cams with a lot of overlap can give you problems using MAP. I conceed that TPS isn't 100% accurate at indicating the load on an engine.
