Megasquirt wiring action!!

[timjmcconnell at gmail.com (Timbo)]

I have a G-Grind cam I'll throw on, but I also not only have the
toilet bowl, but an insanely restrictive exaust meant for ultra
quietness on there. hmm. I think it's time to go find me a dual
downpipe!

Can anybody bring one to cincy that I can buy?
