New video now out! I solder, configure, install and run a v0.3.7 Speeduino against the clock! Did it take me 4 hours or 4 days? Come find out!
Is this good for engine-swapped classic cars ?
Makes me wonder if I could use this Speeduino to convert my 30 year-old 600cc Transalp V-twin engine to EFI.
Thank you so much! I'll be installing it on my old Citroen CX. Screen will be a 5' crt in the dashboard 70's style.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate your cadence.
Thank you, I appreciate your message! 👍
I'm an Electronics Engineer and I will be making one of these and I approve of this vid.
I like it! Cheers Sid!
It’s simple, you do a lot of research and go carefully and slowly. It really isn’t witchcraft, it’s simple. That said, if you are chasing 3 bar boost things can go wrong very quickly, for a standard na or “normal” turbo car, a wideband, some kind of knock detection (even if it’s your ear) and a systematic approach is all you need.
I will say though, the only way to get to absolute peak power is on a dyno, but on the road you can get to 98% I believe.
@@MakingforMotorsport I don't think I'll ever have a tubro-ed car and i am shooting for economy. I think an ecu like that will help me greatly

Mech.Eng here welcoming you to the party!
Having built and run a few Megasquirt ECUs, you have my attention! I’ve never heard of this ECM. This is great!
I built an MS1 about 14years ago... great for the time but this was a much easier build and has everything I need! 👍
I was wondering how long it would be before an Arduino-based engine management solution appeared. Not gonna lie, I thought this would have been a thing at least 5 years ago for how long the Arduino platform has been around.
It has been a thing for a while, I think more like 6 or 7. It’s amazing what some smart people can do!
Project has been round since 2013 and growing all the time :)
@@Speeduino hi Josh, hope your happy with the video, the Speeduino is too good not to talk about! 👍
@@MakingforMotorsport Loved it, really quality production! Keep up the great work.
@@Speeduino that means a lot, cheers 👍
I like the way he thinks! I'm not cheap, I'm frugal, and I like to keep money in my pocket for a change. Great video.
You get it! If the choice is going cheap or not doing it, there is no choice! Plus, in motorsport is always nice to beat the guy who spends $$$$$ when you spend $$!
@@MakingforMotorsport if time is money you could argue it cost the same as the $$$$ boards because you have to do so much extra setup, so it does have a catch that catch is setup time.
Edit: I would rather spend the extra time.
@@nottobay6768 To be honest. It's about a hour of soldering. If you come in with a plan 1-2 wiring setup. Tuning probably takes the longest out this depending on the person and how well they know their vehicle.
@@donovan2697 exactly but for some people, especially those that would have to learn to solder I could see it being for the extra for those people, but not me.
@@nottobay6768 the problem I have with the time is money argument is with what would you otherwise be doing? If your answer is sitting around watching TV or something similar, your time is essentially free. If you would otherwise be learning how the engines functions and how to control it, your time is invested in that same goal which is essentially free too.
It's only when you would otherwise be doing something productive that you cannot do at the same time that it would be money. For instance, you wouldn't consider helping your child with homework as time equals money. But yiu would consider not being able to do so as a loss. Watching this 12 minute video is not 2 tenth of an hourly rate you would otherwise earn unless you stopped earning to watch it.
On the other hand, there can be costs associated with time outside of you earning. For instance, paying for insurance and license fees for a car you cannot drive. Maybe toss storage space in there as well. But if you were already incurring those costs but had to save for the more expensive solutions, it pays in savings to diy the cheap.
I guess the point is that time can equal money but it doesn't always. Especially when the time is spent on a hobby.
Man i found the Speeduino on the internet a couple years ago. Everything to do with it was just links to dead ends and paragraphs written in languages i couldnt read. Its so cool someone pursued this and developed it to this point.
Brilliant video! Easy to understand, no crappy background music, and a salient message for me - just do it! 😊 Thank you.

This product is about to gain even more traction with the OBS Ford tuck crowd. A lot of Fox Body Mustang and OBS Pickup owners are having trouble finding replacement EECs (what Ford called a PCM back in the early 90s) as time goes on. I know Speeduino won't work for MAF equipped vehicles, but the older O2 sensor-only rigs can use this setup easily.
Just wanted to stop by and say how much I'm enjoying your videos, your style of presenting is fantastic
Your project has inspired me to give Speeduino and ITBs a go! I've got an old Pontiac V8 that will make a cool test bed!
Cheers buddy, that’s great to hear and I’m glad your enjoying them 👍. Next video about to drop (if ur considering a Speedy you may find it interesting 🤔)
Turbo charging a 2.2 S10 and tunning has always been my concern, thanks to your video ..that's a thing of the past ...
❤😂
I'm in the US, using a speeduino on a l61 I'm swapping into a Pontiac Fiero.
I bought mine fully assembled for $120 from a Venezuelan living in Mexico. The support from around the world on this project is absolutely amazing.
An international effort! I've always loved the look of the Fiero, like a more aggressive Mk1 MR2, never been in one (they are very rare in the UK), With a good engine I bet it'd be a graet drive👍
@@MakingforMotorsport the Fiero gets a little international love, the big go to forum for the car is in run and hosted in the netherlands. Still not many across the pond. If you ever get to sit in one, one of the biggest surprises is how roomy they are inside.
Hmm, they seem quite small but at the same time American cars are a little larger than the European/Japanese equivalent, the Mk1 MR2 feels tiny inside!
@@MakingforMotorsport yes, the mr2 are very small inside in comparison. The Fiero was intended to have a shorter roof but GM executives at the time were tall and wanted to fit in the car. The roof was raised 2 inches from the prototype. There's a shop in the US that used to chop 3" out of the roof.
The design of the car was revolutionary. In 84 it was the safest car in the US only to be dethroned by volvo in 85. The car was the first with a full space frame that was adopted by the Corvette in 1996. Another thing that was unique is the body mounting was extremely precise, the mounts for the body were resin filled blocks, the whole frame went into a giant mill and drill machine that milled the mounts off at the perfect z hight, then drilled at the precise x,y so you could take the body from one and fit it onto another with no fitment issues throughout it's entire production.
The Fiero was limited by budget in some ways, the engineers still managed to do some unique stuff.
I'm gonna buy one for my v8 fiero after watching this can u recommend a low cost throttle body
I installed one on my Honda civic, it has been very fun to wire up and tune. I definitely learned a lot. 10/10 would do again.
Do you still retain regular functions like AC, stereo, etc‽ I assume they are on other harnesses/ecu’s‽
currently working on a speeduino NO2C setup for a honda grom with a CBR250 engine swap. loads of fun!
I’ve had to Google what Honda Grom is and it looks fantastic! It’s like a Fireblade and a Monkey Bike had a baby! Loving it! 👍👍👍
I have a NO2C in my Spada with the daughter board added.
Nice piece of kit. Weaver is a great guy to deal with too.
@@MakingforMotorsport shame they are garbage performers.
Omfg. Fallen in love. Thank you so much. That digital dash is what I had been looking for with regards to the MS as well. Looks like this one is on the money. Whoop whoop!
Very good explanation & delivery. You & the channel deserve to thrive 👍👍
Cheers buddy, that means a lot! 👍👍👍. Plenty more videos in the pipeline!
Great video and clear introduction to Speeduino. More people need to know about this gem and not be scared off by having to solder. It's a lot of components but individually are about as easy as soldering can be.
I'm so close to firing up my 1979 Toyota Cressida with Speeduino and ITBs. So far the experience has been identical to setting up megasquirt. I've even referenced the megasquirt manual when the speeduino wiki lacks information such as hooking up some engine components.
I also highly recommend spending the little bit of extra money on the advanced Tunerstudio and Megalog Viewer. Its a one time purchase and totally worth it.
Mike, great comment, summed up all the things I editing out of my video! Pinned!
mega squirts used to come on pieces like that back in the day.
The soldering doesn't bother me at all, it's how to know where to wire it in and how to set it up. I only want to control a monopoint injection on a 900cc.
There are plenty of guides out there, it’s simpler than you fear! Give the manual a read through, it covers most of the requirements 👍
@@izzzzzz6 Wiring is incredibly daunting. I've only installed one megasquirt and one Speeduino so I don't have extensive knowledge. But here's some tips.
Break it down. Worry about each engine component separately. Figure out your injector. Then your spark. Then your crank trigger. Order doesn't matter but one at a time really helped me. Research one at a time and how it needs to be wired correctly (high/low impedance injectors, crank sensor hall/VR internal/external pullup, etc.)
Make a wiring diagram or chart. Super helpful to refer back to. When wiring my Speeduino I had a chart with columns like "harness wire colour" "what its for" "where it goes on ecu" then a checkbox once each was fully wired.
Most importantly is write things down, start a binder, make notes. I'm fairly disorganized so I struggled here but it payed off.
Thank you so much for this upload. I took the plunge and bought a speeduino. I’m halfway through the soldering (very therapeutic lol). This is a very doable project for the budget-minded enthusiast :-)
First off your channel is amazing, I can't get enough of your videos. Have you experienced any issues with using an Arduino in an automotive electrical environment?
Thanks bud I always like it when I get messages like this! And I have had no problems whatsoever… the Speeduino boards are so well designed I have never had any problems. Buy a decent quality Arduino and you are set 👍
awesome, this will be on my to buy list. Though I will go with a prebuilt as I know my hands are not steady enough for soldering normal components, much less surface mount.
You've got new subscribers! Can't wait for another speeduino!
Thanks for subscribing👍
Cool! That was in my mind for some years! I am glad someone had the knowledge to make it! I will definitely get one!
I am glad it got made too! Best of luck with it 👍
Thanks for doing this video. I have a 1980 FIAT 124 spider 2.0L that I have built up for auto crossing. I am installing ITBs off a 2004 CBR600RR and want to do away with my distributor. I was trying to decide between the Speeduino and the Megasquirt. this video was perfectly relevant! Thanks!
Just a quick tip for the wire block a good idea would be to use wire ferrules. They prevent the strands from spreading out and lead to a cleaner install overall
Aboslutely right, I keep looking at them but then I want a proper ferrule crimper, then I look at the price and go.... nah, i'll be right!
@@MakingforMotorsport They're not that expensive. But if you do decide to get one, skip the square ones. There are also crimping tools with a hexagonal crimping pattern that results in a much rounder crimp that's easier to install into screw terminals or circuit breakers. I bought mine on Amazon a couple of years ago, it was a brand I never heard of (Preciva), but it works great and I couldn't be more satisfied. Just checked, and a similar one from the same brand goes for £22.39 right now.
I’m just getting started with a Speedunio unit. Thanks for the video
No problem 👍
Hey I'm loving the videos, top job. I commented on your 3d printed inlet manifold video as I too have bought itbs from a zx6r. I'm getting the bits together to convert a 1973 series 3 land rover to run on a speeduino. I've gone for the ua4c flavour and to adapt a previously carburetor based engine I'm getting the rest of the bits needed.(trigger wheels, coil packs ect). I've noticed that alot of the videos revolve around adapting speeduino to already injected cars so I plan on documenting my journey on UA-cam, watch this space. I've not done it before but I feel I've watched days worth of videos on other conversion, please keep the content coming as every one helps me out a little more, cheers
I will do Mike, I love getting the feedback as the videos do seem to really help people! I know what you mean about the other conversions, there could be more info on how to pull together a wasted spark setup using junkyard bits (maybe I should’ve put that in my video🤔).
I would LOVE to see ITBs on a Land Rover! I think UA-cam has enough Miatas and not enough original stuff! Go for it! Let me know when it’s out!
Very cool! I built a megasquirt v1 years ago back when it was only a solder kit. Currently running some projects on arduino based samd21 boards like the qtpy. Super powerful for $6. And m5stack esp32. Looking for something like this for my hopefully soon kswap starion.
Oh Jesus! A Starion?? 😍😍😍 I’m gonna go look at some pictures....
Hell yeah! I might buy a speeduino just to use on my stock bmw m30 engine
Haha!! Why not? The modifications you don’t actually need are always the best ones!
@Making for Motorsport congratulations! This video is great and your channel is growing quickly!
Thanks alot, it was going well but this video has just took off, sometimes you just lucky hooking into a subject 🤷♂️ I've still got a way to go before I get to your level tho! Keep it going!
You just got a viral video. I hope you'll keep it up. I really love the content and the personality of yours. Quite cool. Greetings from France !
Merci beaucoup!

@@ogfromutube9649 t5 or t6? Either way, you can run both engines with what ever combo you want. If running a drive by wire, you will need to revert to drive by cable. Not yet supported unless you get a standalone.

You bet i'm gonna get ITB's for my engine, Renault Clio F7P with ITB and Speeduino, going to be amazing! :D
Lots of revs, all the BRAARRP!!!! Nice 👍👍👍
I’m busy with 52mm itbs on my dc5 type R , been watching quite a bit of your stuff , very awesome
Thanks bud! VTECs were made for ITBs! Match made in heaven!
I have a Datsun 280zx or a Nissan S130 Z. I’m planning on turbocharging it. It may be a bit high compression but I’m running low boost, good cooling, and good efi to mitigate for that. I was looking to get a Megasquirt Diy kit and run Ford EDIS and mod the trigger wheel a bit. But now that you mention this, this is a whole different animal. This changes everything. Thank you
Have a look into it, I had a MS1ex back in the day and this is cheaper, easier to put together and does the same thing….
Just added one of these to my MX5 and had it professionally tuned. The Speeduino isn't that well known down here in Australia so my tuner had to spend a bit of time getting to know where some of the features were in Tunerstudio. Once he had, he told me that this ECU was as good as any of the more expensive units frequently used down here with all of them cost more than 4x what I paid (including shipping from the US to Australia). I'm definitely happy with my decision to go with the Speeduino.
That’s great to hear, I am convinced that a properly build and installed Speeduino, on the right type of engine, is a match for most other units! Really glad it’s worked out well for you!
That's cool, been thinking about slapping a maxpeedingrod gt2871 on my Miata 1.8. This speeduino would work, as long as I find a tuner right?
he lied to you, most plug and play units will leave the speed duiono in the dust, how fast is a arduino cpu. thats right they are very slow, and it is precisely that lag in cpu speed that creates glitches, get a plug and play unit they are the stress free way to go, sure they cost a bit more but your saving on grief and failed projects and so on ???
Hey, great to see you using Speeduino, and thanks for the mention in the Video :D
A few small recommendations before you get too stuck in with your tuning.
Update your firmware to the latest.
There are some features in versions after yours that make running ITBs easier, mainly ignition based idle control.
I use that on my personal project., ua-cam.com/video/EfR-dr7fOW0/v-deo.html
Also, if you are using TPS as your load, make sure you have an axis cell for 0, and I would use about 5 cells going up in single increments (1,2,3,4,5) at the bottom of the table.
A small throttle change in this region has a big impact.
Good luck with your project, SUBBED!
I’ve thinking about updates for a while but i already have the functionality and value the stability above everything (don’t want to mess with it), it’s been running my wasted spark for about 2-3years....
I do like the sound of ignition based idle control, I’ve got a retard dip in my table at idle and if it drops in revs I get abit of advance to nudge it back but that’s not ideal, (less than perfect idle and it’s taking up a speed column), I will look at it 👍
So seeing as I am going to be messing with it, it’s likely a good time to update. And 🤫 on the Load axis break points, that’s basically the next video 😂😂😂
Great explanation. So far I have built a mini with megajolt, fitted emerald engine management and Jenvey tbs to two mk1 Zetec escorts, and just fitted nodiz to a Zetec mk2 on carbs. This vid has given me a bit more of a clue as to what I could do to my bay window 1600 camper. But first I need to look into how to setup the injection side without breaking the bank. Maybe I need to look at more of your videos. With the Ford’s and Minis everyone shares their experiences, but the air cooled VW scene is just much more secret, and too cool for helping each other from what I can tell. Thanks for the video, liked and subscribed as requested. Cheers.
Wow! You’ve done a lot, and I am insanely jealous of the Escorts! I had a Mk1 with a YB 10years ago but sold it to get a house deposit 🤦♂️ would love another one... for the camper, I mean an engine is an engine, not sharing just makes it harder! Are the VW guys into the performance tuning side? Do they do ITBs and such like the Ford boys? Maybe the knowledge just isn’t there?

this is awesome. So nice to see more ppl using speediuno. I decided to put ITBs on my s52 powered e30 and took a chance at using a speeduino (pasi board) ECU and i haven't looked back. Car runs very well thanks to my buddy Dwight from @DCwerx who got me all setup with a tune. This year i plan on adding a better flowing exhaust system and maybe trying out some longer trumpets for my ITBs.

Great information!! I'm working on converting my 72 Jaguar XJ6 S1 from carbs to ITB's. This solves one part of the puzzle. Cheers!
Sounds like a great project! I have a series on ITBs aswell, I used motorbike ITBs, they are fantastic for the money!
@@MakingforMotorsport Yes, good info, I've watched it. I've found a company in Australia that sells itb's with the same bolt pattern as the side draft Weber's. 😃 My remaining challenge is air filters and either wasted spark or coil on plug ignition.
I went for the Link Plugin ECU for my Altezza when I put ITBs on. It really is plug'n'play, so it couldn't have been simpler. The Altezza uses a BEAN network for a lot of the car, so the Link plugin ECU has an extra board on it to do the can bean translation. This meant I could use everything on my dash and keep it very OEM looking. A really good benefit of the Link ECU is the support that comes with it, whether on the Link ECU forums, the FB pages or direct contact. If there are any issues or queries, you get a really detailed answer usually within minutes from a Link employee.
When I get a more project oriented car, I'll definitely be giving the speeduino a go
Yeah Link seems to be the name of the moment with lots of integration, I remember your post on the ITB and your install sounded top notch, especially if you can integrate into the BEAN network and CANBUS. Trying to integrate anything into that and continue the stock features would be a massive headache...
Omg, I needed this six years ago when I still had my Fiat Cinquecento!
I did look into MegaSquirt, but never had the ponies to cough that up :)
I did a Megasquirt about 12years ago, went to do another about 2 years ago, got put off by the price and found Speeduino. I never had a Cinqy but I had a Seicento Sporting back in the day, what a car!!! I’d reckon the 500 is even better!
I loved the 500, had the sporting as well!
Sadly, I parked it in a canal :(

Thanks a lot great Video! It helped me a lot and convincing me more and more to Speedunio
Thanks a lot! There are plenty of others out there, but if I had to spend £400-500 on just the ECU, I couldn’t do it! Spend more by all means and get more features but if you just want to run an engine and drive it, for the money you can’t beat Speeduino!

Jenvey Dynamic itb for the cyclone engine im building up. I have been using MicroSquirt for the fuel/ignition system with some I/O from an open source software. Kinda did the trick you described with the ampseal header and soldered the day away.
Oh my goodness!! I am so unbelievably interested in this!! I am dedicated to learn how to wire and tune my Z32 TT instead of dropping $1500+ on a haltech!! Can the speeduino support boost controlling and all the other tuning features a haltech would have??
Hey, awesome video! Keep up the good work.
One question. Do you need an external device or drive to connect the O2 sensor with the Speeduino? Like the innovate one you show in this video or you can connect the wide band O2 straight to the Speeduino?
Yeah, so for a wideband you need a controller, that controls the temp of the sensor and conditions the output to a 0-5v, the majority of aftermarket ECUs (and Speeduino) can only read the 0-5v signal. You can use a narrowband but you’re far better off with a wideband
Awesome video! Really appreciate the info :)

That’s great to hear! It’s took too long to get this video out but I’ve got a few lined up now! 👍
What’s your car?
@@MakingforMotorsport Looking forward to more of your ITB series. The bigger project car is a 92 civic. Been planning to build some custom ITBs for years but haven't got around to it yet! Your videos are inspiring me to get to it though :)
It’s a big change to any car, but ITBs just give that race engine snap throttle response that you can’t get any other way! Just go for it! You won’t regret it... (when it’s finished 😂)
Been waiting for this to come out. Hope i have luck. Even tho cobtartp is only 170ish for obd1 Hondas is hard to beat.
Great video. I'm in. Gotta love an arduino!
Arduinos! There is nothing they can’t do!
Thanks bro! Awesome.
I have 2001 (USDM) Lexus GS300 all stock 2jz ge and this video has made me want to turn it into a sleeper
That’s quite the machine! Gotta love a big straight-6!
the tablet in car with viewable tuning studio is the coolest thing ever
It is my favourite bit of the whole build, who needs a laptop? And I can data log whenever I am driving 👍👌
I've got a Jeep 2.5 4 cylinder that I am stroking to 3.0. I'm also modifying a 351 Cleveland head on top of it. I'm making a custom cam for it. I want to run individual stack injection. I might go carburetor and just need to control the spark.
I'm looking into doing this sort of thing but using raspberry products instead! Thanks so much
Speeduino is the future
I have a turbo miata running on a speeduino 0.4 and absolutely love it for the price!
A turbo miata! I am sooo tempted by a miata to play about with... did you do diy or PnP?
@@MakingforMotorsport I went with the smd 0.4 and just made the harness myself. Its been going good for the past couple of months. The miata has been a trooper, I’ve screwed up so many times, and yet its still kicking on 14psi with 190k miles!
14psi???? It can take more!! 😂👍😬. I am really tempted by the idea of a miata, I think it’d really help the channel with something more road based to work on...
Loving this ITB series. Planning on building a new shape fiat 500 rat rod pick up truck and was tin king what to do with the engine. ITBs I think will compliment it great but management was my biggest
Concern
One of my current projects is my 1992 ZX7R that I want to convert to efi. I was thinking of adapting the complete throttle bodies/ harness/sensors and ecu from an R6 since their power levels are similar.
Thats what every budget tuner is looking for! Well thats really awesome!
I am just spreading the word! Not enough people know about them!
@@MakingforMotorsport Yes i repostet it in the facebook honda community but nobody reacted positive. They dont believe that its good for this price. I will give it a try when i decide to buy an new ECU! For me this sounds perfect. :D
Thanks for sharing! The Honda community I think are well served with the Hondata unit and the standard ECUs are some of the most modifiable as far as I know. Plus there are a few well trodden paths which are proven, but that’s the same with any make of car....
@@MakingforMotorsport Sure but if i tune my civic and the Hondata costs nearly as much as the whole car.. i begin to question things. :D And i didnt knew that the standart ecus can be modified, thanks for that!
It depends on the model, it might not be the case anymore, I’m not really a Honda guy.... plus, with the standard ecu you are limited to the standard programming... so if it’s got an air mass meter you’ll be limited to using that....
Just what I need! I’m rebuilding a Fiat X1/9 with a Fiat Uno Turbo 1.3 engine and I’m currently looking for a replacement for the standard and old ECU.
Have a look into it further but this would do the job well I think! 👍
Hey Man! I have a Toyota Starlet P7. At the moment I'm rebuilding a 5EFE engine and designing a ITB for it. When everything is going fine with the engine swap I'm going to try to build this Speeduino too !
subscribed! cheers from Italy!
Buongiorno! Thanks for sub’n! 👍
Yesterday I went to Santapod with my Corrado with a r32 engine running on Speeduino happily ran a 13.4 @100 mph which is comparable to the same car running the stock management considering I am not currently controlling the VVT and the intake changeover valve I am happy, it helps that I have previous MS2 and MS3x experience (and already have the tunerstudio upgrade) there are a few things that are not currently supported but for the money it works really well.
Sounds like it’s going well! Have you done all the tuning on it? I have used a MS years ago and when I came to get another one I couldn’t believe how much the prices have gone up... especially an MS3x, great functionality but it’s nearly entry level money for a name brand!
@@MakingforMotorsport yes I did all the tuning still needs a little work in the warmup areas and part throttle but its more than drivable I towed my trailer tent and did the 300 mile round trip without issues, The prices have gone up (as have everything) I helped a friend pick a new ecu recently for his fast road car and he was interested in going ms3x and in the end he went for an EMU classic as it was similar price wise to an ms3x and had DBW support which he was keen on... I have my MS3x on my mk2 golf drag car (pb of 9.95@146)
That EMU classic seems like a great choice, definitely better than a similarly priced Link unit, they need to increase their marketing budget! Sounds like you’re well into your VWs, sub 10 in a FWD is going some, is it a turbo? (1.8T?)
@@MakingforMotorsport yes its a 1.8t with a hx52 although I am building a new engine for it as I keep lifting the head on it (lower compression and o-ringed the block) I was quite impressed with the EMU range although the datalogging is more awkward vs the ms3
Very , interested can love your videos
Hm almost convinced ..... Let me looking in to it 😉
If you need to practice soldering, I highly recommend using old, defunked flat screen TV or Laptop. The circuit boards in those are perfect learning tools. You might even end up repairing it.
I'm currently rebuilding the 7mge in my 87 supra. Looking to upgrade the ignition system to a coil on plug system for easier repairs in the future
