[Spridgets] Mega Squirt?

[Glen Byrns]

I checked the link but couldn't find the blog or much of anything beyond the linked page.  You mention the newer version dealing better with the Siamese porting of the A series. I'm curious how that could be. 
My experience has been that this is theoretical issue more than an actual problem.  
   My set-up injects with a single injector ahead of the turbocharger (wet-turbo). I cannot imagine how software can have the slightest effect on the charge as it splits in the manifold/cylinder head.   I've never detected any significant difference in the plug reads on this motor leading me to dismiss the Siamese porting as a non-issue.   I suppose if you are using multiple injectors you might be able to approach some sort of mitigation for the imagined issues of the porting?
    I'm using full ignition timing control using the dizzy as the trigger.  A wide-band O2 sensor just post turbo, intake manifold pressure sensor and water temp sensor complete the inputs.
    I'd like to see the blog or talk to the owner of the car that resulted from the effort. Boosted/injected Megasquirted cars are a very small club. (Of very fast Sprites!)

Glen Byrns

The Bugeye Guy did a blog on one he was creating for a customer.  http://www.bugeyeguy.com/2016/05/fuel-injected-bugeye-sprite-test-miles-begin/    Not sure which firmware you are running, but there have been some updates to better handle the siamese ports of the intake manifolds of the A Series engines.

>> About a year before LotO, I installed Megasquirt to control the ignition and injection on Bugsy's motor.  It has served very well to wring out the power without blowing anymore pistons.  At this point I'm wondering if anyone on the list has any experience with Megasquirt.  I've never truly mastered reading the data logs to make refinements in the tuning. I've got clean plugs, gobs of power and a smooth sounding motor, but I'm still futzing with the cold start parameters and would like to hear from another voice.  I could be happy with it the way it is but I just can't help trying to buff the gold to a higher shine.
