I know there have been some US MR2s with a MegaSquirt ECU but has anyone done it with their mk1 UK spec (NA or SC)? I know there are certain differences between the US and UK mk1s that make it more difficult but has anyone succesfully made the switch? What benefits could we expect to see?

Re: MegaSquirt ECU
I don't think there will be any significant differences in set-up, if any thing ours will be easier to do. The megasquirt is setup with a MAP sensor so it would be a straight plug in to the existing plumbing. The US spec does have a lambda sensor but you could get an import manifold from Fensport for £35 IIRC and wiring up a sensor wouldn't be difficult.
As far as performance benefits, it depends on what other mods you're doing. If none you could remap to get the same benefits as Unichip.
