This is of interest to me. I would like to see any discussion of
Megasquirt and Vanagons done in open forum on the list.

I built my first ECU in 2002 or so, and have run one on a big T4, and on an ABA in my Scirocco.  I love Megasquirt, my questions are vanagon specific.  Has/is anyone currently running one on a 2.1 that could share some base maps with me.  My beater winter syncro I was going to finally abandon this year, as too much of it FI wise is getting iffy, and as I've long sold my Digifant spares in one of my "I'm never going to own another waterboxer moments."

I have an old MS1/extra compatible box (actually a "dirty word" box, one of the first Mini-MS that Bruce/Al drove out of prodction) and a Microsquirt I just bought to toy with, so either generation/size maps I'm interested in.
