I got interested in MS and ended up doing a deep dive on fuel injection in general, learning the different types (TBI, MPI, etc) and the different sensors involved (MAP vs MAF and the like) and really just soaking it all in.

Around that time a friend was having car problems. He described the symptoms to me. I looked up the type of fuel injection used on that car, which sensors it used etc, and recommended they replace a specific sensor, without ever having even seen the car- all based on my knowledge from Megasquirt. I found out later that it worked, the engine ran much better. It's amazing what a bit of open source knowledge can do :)

Yeah back then on the forums people were running just the total gamut of everything gasoline internal combustion with MS [0] and living the dream. Chainsaws and string trimmers [1] up to 2-bar turbos with water injection to inhibit detonation [2], and lots of Jaguar V12s [3]— peak internet.

I think I still have a spare MS hotwheels sticker around somewhere. [4]
