Hi guys, sorry if this topic has been covered before, tried searching for anything recent but to no avail. I am building a turbo E30 325i (pretty basic kit, not aiming for majorly big power), just want up to date advice on management.

I have been told Gunni on here can supply and map the VEMS system, any truth in this? If so does anyone have a price all in (fitting and mapping)?

Does anyone deal with Megasquirt systems too?

Any contact details etc would be great, along with opinions (pros and cons etc).

Thanks in advance guys

Gunni can supply and fit and map, best to email him for up to date prices.

If it's an m20 you can buy a plug and play megasquirt:

Thanks Ross, I'm thinking if I can get the megasquirt here from the states without being stung import/customs charges that'll be a bargain. Unless of course anyone on here has any advice/wisdom they'd care to share? Heard really good things from Indy regarding the VEMS, but not really sure what that provides that Megasquirt won't. Thanks
