I have the MSD HEMI 6.....The stupid thing comes with a 9 pin serial port data cable that you will have to spend another 40 bucks to convert it to USB so you can use it. What a Joke
Other than that it seems fine
I just can imagine why they would make a product that you cant use
This is confusing,,,I need a computer to 'work' the MSD??? I have not seen the FAST unit yet,,but,,some of my contacts have,, they say, the unit is self contained and adjustable with a screwdriver..? (potentiometer?) :...I don't know ..just looking for some info. I know of one person using the FAST set-up, and they seem to like it so far. This could all change, next season, as it is a dirt car and the season is over here. I am a "lost ball in tall grass" with this new technology...
If you like drag racing, support your local track.

can you use that megasquirt on the new hemi?
and BTW, i know Doc, i know that car. when he brought that to DW 06, it would hardly run and my friend Lane Culver tuned it driving down the road. didnt really help as the car was setup so poorly, it would almost launch itself over the guardrails every pass. was happy to see it running much better this year
