Your tuning boys must suck at tuning. The first step in tuning anything is getting the idle down. After that with a wideband it should be a breeze to map out the rest.

The idle should be tuned first. There is some difficulty to it, but there are also other adjustments besides the computer. You gotta be able to user all of those things together to make it right. We've had a couple of cars come in for minor things that were running megasquirt and they were all DIY tuned and they all had stable idles. This was an RX7 I'm talking about also...

Jumped in on this thread on the 3rd page. Read a little bit of it but im sure its full of "Just 3sgte it"

If you go with standalone do a 5sGTE. With the standalone you can control the 3s head with no problems. Yes you can put a 3s in there but where would be the fun?

stand alone
CP pistons + Total seal rings
3sgte rods or your likeing
3sgte head (P&Ped)
5s block

This would be a fine settup and the biggest flaw would be the trans. And if you look at it that way many of you swappers have the same trans.
