How quick is it being so light? Who built the car?

I would try to get a chargecooler in there to allow you to run a bit more boost.

How are you going about mapping the megasquirt? Did you solve your fueling issue?

500kg is very light. I want a go in that lol

Where do you plan to get it mapped?

Back a few years ago I looked at Megasquirt, but unfortunately found the info on the internet all over the place and hard to follow. In addition my local rollers weren't interested in trying to map a system like that, probably because they don't like working on systems they don't know.

Cool ok.

Providing you can monitor the fueling it shouldn't be too hard. Making it to drive nicely with good response may take some tweaking but its probably better on the open road for that. Mapping it for full throttle is the easiest bit, its everything below that which is harder.

So, what made you decide on MS then?

Oops. I've done a mates car. You need to be good at wiring, and on the wiring diagrams it can be hard to trace all the power supplies and earths
