      Wow, yes exactly my thought, no way i was alone in wanting a Terminator-Max/OEM ECU hybrid so as to keep as much OEM functionality possible. A plug and play harness piggy back would be so perfect. That doesnt exist for example for silverado/terminator setupm seems like it would for some reason. I got some money, how much would it cost?

    Why would he make that single ground lead so long? We are all super big fans of the 2 grounds behind the heads you can never get to. That just loos to simple and easy we don't trust it! it's amazing how clean he can make those harnesses for sure. With a tall intake you could run part of it underneath and not even see wiring running to the front of the engine id say.

      @mandagrath 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The ms3 stuff is more comparable to the higher end Holley stuff. The price difference is what keeps me with Megasquirt. The terminator is good but isn’t as capable as the Gold Box or the MS3Pro stuff.
