well after a few tickets and a speeding induced accident ive decided going turbo or engine swap may not be the best thing for me right now. But i do want to work on something. so ive decided to start a high'(er) rpm 5mge. So my question is what fuel managment system would be the easiest to install(havnt had much exsperience working on efi engines but there's no better time to learn) and work with for a strictly n/a 5mge?

which systems have you researched? what are your capabilities? what is your goal and purpose? Sounds like you're looking for something to keep you out of trouble for awhile.

Way too much money is required to make a high revving 5/6/7M. Not worth it. Continue on your turbo path. The amount of learning you need to do by the sounds of it, should take long enough that you'll hopefully mature in that year or two.

If your doing a built NA motor I'd reccomend some aftermarket management. I recently have done just this on my 7mge which was heavily worked by the previous owner.
Microtech LT10s cost $1095
Installation cash in hand for a mate $250 bucks
Tuning yet to be done quote $350 bucks
Thats all australian dollars too so for Just under AUS $1700 I have full aftermarket management which imo is pretty good. I was looking at $1,500 for a piggy back installed and tuned so it makes the aftermarket management seem very attractive, considering it also means I've tossed the airflow meter and also have much better tuning capabilities.

Im building the engine for solo II racing along with solo 1 and the track is closed for about a year so i got some time to do it. Ive worked alot building carburated engines for me and my dads stock cars but ive never really worked on an engine with an efi system before. I want to keep it NA so i dont have to move up a class for solo II and i just plainly dont need the power on the street. Ive researched megasquirt a bit and it looks like the cheapest way to go, which i like. I Really just want to get rid of that dam airflow meter. I would be really happy if i could get 185 wheel hp but i know that still is a stretch.

Stick a 7mge and follow Ed's build of my engine, i'll tell u how much power with the microtech I get next monday. Should be a tad more than 185rwhp.:woot:
Note i'm still running standard cams as well.
