10 saturated injector drivers
8 logic level ignition outputs
3 high current (5 amp) general purpose outputs - 2 can be reconfigured as additional injector drivers
3 medium current (3 amp), high frequency general purpose outputs
All unused injector and ignition outputs can be used as spare on/off or other outputs. This ECU has a LOT of I/O!
1 stepper H-bridge driver
Camshaft and crankshaft differential inputs - supports VR, Hall effect, and optical input
12 volt tach output
Fuel pump output
8 analog inputs (5 dedicated sensor inputs, 3 spare/general purpose)
4 spare digital on/off inputs
3 spare digital frequency inputs
2 knock sensor inputs
RS232, USB 2.0, and CAN communication
Onboard 8 gigabyte SD card for internal data logging
Internal ECU temperature sensor
Real time clock
Temperature range: -30 to +80 degrees C (-40 to +85 without battery for real time clock)

Ugh, I see the DIY price tags of yore are over and done with. Good thing I like bone stock (cheap) MS1 systems, huh?

[MarioVelotta]

All the rest are still available. This is for the guys that wan't packaging that look the part too. The distance MS had come is testimony to how good the old stuff works, no doubt about it.

[MarioVelotta]

HEY, yours isn't bone stock. It's modded for EDIS

[Clonebug]

Correction.....he doesn't have one anymore.
His brother is cleaning up his poop....

[miniman82]

Yep, no place to keep the Dub at the new house and he needed a new project anyway. EDIS mods are minimal, but if you really want to split hairs it doesn't have stock code anymore either...

[MarioVelotta]

Lol, just ball busting When did you move?

Couple weeks ago, this place is way better than Chicago in every way possible. Where I live there are 2 specialty machine shops and an auto parts store walking distance from my doorstep, and work is half as far as it used to be.

The garage is the biggest plus though, alread got the welder set up and I installed a vise in the bench just the other day. Project completions are going to triple, as long as I'm not on deployment that is.

Couple more hours!

So I'm stepping into MS and was wondering if anyone has the MS-pro yet? The only downside I see is the internal jumper wire set up. Any thought on this unit?

Awful expensive when a $300 unit ( MS2 on V3 board) would do most everything you want....

Well it has the expansion boards built in and no external injector driver box and more channels real time clock can camunication ect. I will need all these.

In reality you could reproduce the ms3pro functions for probably 2/3 the cost using the old style. BUT you lose the packaging, and the connectors. After looking at the effort and work put into my setup to make it it function like it does, a few jumper wires is nothing. The instructions are probably well written. Its not the cheapest option, but definitely the nicest. Take it from someone that has actually been squirted for a few years. Ms3 is the way to go for a turbo'd intercooled street bug. Pro just makes it clean.

[shag55]

The MS3 not the pro?

[shag55]

Also there is the labeled hardness. I hate unlabeled wires!!!
