Summary of change:
The [http://members.shaw.ca/megasquirt/manual/mtabcon.htm megamanual] is the best introduction to do-it-yourself engine management we've found so far on internet. It's the first step towards successful engine modifications, if you're not an expert, read it. * introduction, guidelines, engine-sensors: very nice collection of information * HW assembly: motorola megasquirt specific, not relevant * initial programming of the motorola processor with a Willette programmer: skip it. GenBoard is eaiser to reflash, see GenBoard/Firmware/BootLoader. * basic fuel parameters tuning via MegaTune : applies to GenBoard, but see GenBoard/Manual/Config for extra parameters * forums and such: don't ask for information on the yahoo MegaSquirt list (they apparently don't like anything that matches their affordability with superior functionality) ---- '''Similar ECMs''' - most have less functionality than VEMS, but better manual These manuals get you acquainted with engine management in 1/15th of the time compared to reading forums or mailing list archives. '''If you have read several manuals, please tell us your opinion which are the strengthnesses of each''' - or just in short: which one you liked in general. * [http://www.autronic.com/page_files/documentation_for_smc_and_sm2_models.htm Autronic manual] is '''just 19 pages''', which includes a 5 pages long reference table for variables.

The 102 page manual still only cover the basics.'' * Haltech docs: [http://www.k2rd.com/haltech/manuals/e6kv9man.pdf Haltech ECM manual] (or this [http://volvo.alvarogil.com/EFI/Software+Manuals/Haltech%20Info/E6K_Manual.pdf an older version:].
