Someone should wire this for a Z, right?

MS3-Pro Standalone Engine Management System by DIYAutoTune.com

MS3 Pro no more soldering and guessing, does anything and everything if you set it up period.

Will not work with the twin DBW throttle body that the 370z has.

MS3 only support one.
Unless you modify your TB for those that are cable actuated.

Then you might have some problems hooking up the VVEL components.

well the vvel could be mapped using a servo drive controller board and a spare output, and the ms3 has like 4 extra stepper outputs you would just need to get on the ms forum and have one coded as a second throttle. being open source and having the support of the developers you can do anything with it. it's possible if there was enough interest i'm sure someone would do it.

Im not sure where you read that or i cant read proprely but on their website about info on the ms3pro . It only has 1 stepper driver
It does has a few in and out but nothing that could be compatible with our DBW TB...
EDIT;not compatible with more than 1x TB

ok one stepper input (thought there were 2) but it's ok because the nissan throttles are probably dc servo's i'm going to confirm this tomorrow. so make that 4 pwm or analog 0-5 ref outputs and 4 servo controllers.

wiring diagram shows dc servos

edit: yup definitely dc servos

My how megasquirt has evolved. We have had a surprisingly high number of encounters with the MS units over the years. The newer ones do work surprisingly well.

Probably not worth the trouble at this point unless you have a really nasty engine/head/turbo set-up or its your race car haha. The R&D to get something like this running correctly on a modern car like a 370z would be pretty hardcore no matter who you went to. Cool idea though.

why buy a stand alone when there is a z out there making 1000hp on the stock ecu?
