More default pins
Has it been discussed to put more pins on the front of the ECU?
Currently with the functionality available 54 pins total on the front isnĀ“t enough for all variations of the V3 platform and a auxiliary connector is required, the Aux connector itself can have varying pinouts based on customer demand which definitely causes confusion when these boxes are out in the field as the pinout information has been lost by the customer 100% of the time
I believe this red econoseal would help solve that issue

18 more pins which should remove the need for the Aux connector, allow second serial on the front and second wideband at the same time, possibly have the mux analog functionality embedded on the board to provide more analog inputs (due to the way the firmware handles analogs the pins could have fixed functionality like fuel pressure, oil pressure, baro pressure, exhaust back pressure etc).
Looks like there is space on the board for this connector.
The biggest gain from my perspective is that the front pinout can be fixed and all the boxes the same in that respect.
For future boxes 72 pins is definitely not enough for any ARM processor used to maintain complete functionality without providing compromises (pin is analog or PWM output but not both)
