The MegaSquirt Project has experienced explosive growth other the years, with hundreds of new MS installations occurring every week - a phenomenal success! MegaSquirt has been successfully used in all aspects of Internal Combustion engine applications including R&D, Industry, Race, and Research. The MS project has transformed itself from a simple R&D project into a full-featured mature engine control system. To reflect this the support structure has also changed to meet the needs of MegaSquirt Users.
Moving forward, the R&D forums for MegaSquirt project are in a read-only mode - no new forum posts are accepted.
However the forums will remain available for view, they still contain a wealth of information on how MegaSquirt works, how it is installed and used. Feel free to search the forums for information, facts, and overview.While the R&D forum traffic has slowed in recent years, this is not at all a reflection of Megasquirt users, which continue to grow year after year. What has changed is that the method of MegaSquirt support today has rapidly moved to Facebook, this is where the vast majority of interaction is happening now. For those not on Facebook the msextra forums is another place for product support. Finally, for product selection assistance, all of the MegaSquirt vendors are there to help you select a system, along with all of the required pieces to make it complete.

I took my car for a trip this weekend and had some problems with the Ve map. On Friday the max map reading, (engine off) was 95.5 instead of the normal 97. I assume this was just due to the ambient air pressure (or lack of it). Unfortunately since since a lot of change takes place between map 94 and 97 on my car this had the effect of moving the operation down into an area that was too lean. I thought that MSII would correct for the air pressure reading at startup? I was able to re-scale the table to a max map of 96 and then it was ok until the next day when the pressure went up again
Thanks,
Simon

i do believe that if you don't have 2 map sensors you cannot get realtime baro correction, i believe that on startup it gets current Baro pressure and stores it in flash , the only way i know of doing realtime correction is by DIYautotune's Map daddy conversion, add's a 3 bar sensor to your MS and then you can setup the correction in MT
