That cool! How hard was it? Anything special to wire it all up? Would you be able to do a write up on it?

Pretty damn simple really. Actual time spent wiring was under 3 hours. I do have a noise problem when I approach 3k RPM that I'll have to fix, could easily be bad grounds or something. Tuning is a fairly steep learning curve. Once I get it going better I may be able to do a write up.

How did you do the trigger wheel for the crankshaft? Did you use the stock crank position sensor, or something else?

Should have clarified I'm running fuel only. Went the MS2/Extra route for the 16x16 VE table.

Doesn't the MS still need a crank signal, to know when to start running the injectors?

It can use a bunch of different signals, I'm simply using the negative coil wire.
