Sorry for all the questions this is just really cool that this works so inexpensive when comparedto others will definitely be using this when I get a car would you be able to make this work with a non electronic trans

Is the wheel speed sensor hooked to the Trans controller or the gold box and where are the settings located in the Trans software or the engine settings do you have to connect to each controller separate when making changes

the driveshaft speed / tail shaft speed sensor on the 80e is wired into the microsquirt TCU and the information is shared over the canbus
you can connect to the ecu and change settings on the trans controller, the data will go down the canbus
you could attach wheel speed sensors to any part of the car, front and rear wheels, driveshaft etc, non electronic trans might not have many options but its easy to grab them off wheels, abs rings, studs etc

Love this project, been following your videos for little while now.
Was really excited to see the implementation of traction control since the ms3 uses the method of comparing front to rear speeds and calculating slip.
From your experience using the system, would it be possible to piggy back the ms3 to a factory ecu and use it solely for traction control purposes? Was going to buy a Racelogic unit until they stopped making them, wondering if this could be made to work the same for a similar (or lesser) cost.

I buy my MS kits and some other items from DIYAutotune and I am a big fan of them, but that gold box is a CRAZY good deal. If I wanted a pre-built, I think that is what I would do.
But we'll see what Matt says...

i just wish there was an easier way to implement this into a 4th gen and keep the stock gauges. I talked to efi source and they said I would have to run aftermarket canbus style gauges.

LOL complaining about traction control when its zero degrees out, with salt, and you have regular radials and a truck with no weight in the bed!
When does you local track open?

The denmah motto right there! lol
Seriously though, thanks for being so open source with everything you have done, I know it has really helped me and many others! I constantly reference your sloppy mechanics wiki page, tons of great info.
