Why are you installing the Mega Squirt? Do you have the new MSII with spark control? I have Mega Squirt in one of my old Mopars, and while it works pretty well, I feel like the stock ECM in the Corvette is already excellent. What are you trying to achieve with the MS that you cannot get out of the GM ECM?

A big thanks to Jon for bringing the oscilliscope to trouble shoot my car. Rick found the problem and fixed it. I owe you a beer man. We spent over 2 days to troubleshoot the damn electrical problem.

For a few min. I really thought your ECM was toast. For Rick to find a broken conductor inside of an intact insulator is very impressive.
I'm glad everything worked out.

Without the oscilliscope he would never find it. That is why we spent over 2 full day trying to troubleshoot it. When he calls me and say it all fixed and he turn up the boost to 16psi and take the car for a test drive down the street doing 130mph. He mentions two cops out looking for him because he thinks the people call the cops on him. We could not make it to the track as planned because it rain and thunder storm here.
As soon Rick get the heads back from the speed shop. He should have your car back running in a few hrs. You gonna like the mild ported heads with the hot cam. It a good proven setup thats work well.
