Hi guys!
I'm 27yo and I took a master degree in automotive engineering. Currently I work with high end motorsport ecus doing calibration (mainly Cosworth and Life Racing).
I was always curious about making pcb and I indeed had made some (both homemade and outsourced). I have some programming skills with high level languages (arduino IDE and MPLAB) but I would say it's medium to low level and rusty. My electrical skills are good enough to build small circuitry.
The reason I'm registering the forum is because I plan to install a microrusEFI on my brother's car. I have a spare megasquirt 1 V2.2 extra code which I assembled myself 7 years ago. I feel its missing features and I don't like the connector or the fact that is very bulky, ence the idea of going rusEFI.
I would go for a Life Racing ecu but he can't afford, also I believe rusEFI will do the job just fine!
The car is going to have ITBs so I was hoping to have the idle control by ignition/fuel and neither the megasquirt or speeduino (my other choice) would do it. Let me know what you think about it.
I hope I can contribute somehow to this community.
Thanks!
