Outstanding! 2 questions: Why the toyota v12 instead of the bmw m70 or m74? Why Megasquirt instead of AEM?

Toyota builds a better motor period....MS3 will run run a 12cylinder...... and the factory has 2 boxes and another controller that was mashed in shipping. We're going to keep it simple as the V12 is sequential inj. with wasted spark and coil on plug.

We have completed the 1GZ Enigma. It is the epiphany of what Porsche should have and should be building. Unfortunately they don't have the vision as a VW slave.


The Corvette Z06 transaxle is a perfect match and upgrade for the huge torque the GZ unleashes with Megasquirt. VVTi and full sequential injection has been achieved.

It pulls like a mule on roids.....
Mind you it's sitting in a 2900lb Porsche, not a bloated Supra.
