Regarding the Megasquirt, I wasn't aware that EMS could be used but why bother when there are other units that fully support the 20B like the Haltech you mentioned and for example, Microtech? These are not pricey units and they fully support the 20B setup and they have both been used on countless installs. My current EMS is the Microtech LT-12S. With wiring harness, it's like $1,300 and it has my car running like OEM.

Regarding the first point: Definitely don't do 20b if price is an issue. Even $22k is twenty two freaking thousand dollars for an engine swap. You best have a hell of a budget.

As for the Megasquirt, with a few mods on board and doing all the soldering myself, I can have a seriously high powered EFI system for a hair over $300 - the price of the kit and wiring harness. So yes, a thousand dollar savings right there is good enough justification for me, and since I understand how to do it, it's worth it to me. That's just an example of what I'm talking about, not everyone can wield a soldering iron like i can, so not everyone is in a position to spend $300 for something people often spend $1300 on.
