What is a "megasquirt"? What does it do?

Why would I install one?

Just looked here. So you have a petrol powered something!
Its experimental as well. Hmm, I woud be speaking to Bruce Davis and just buying a proven unit. $900 bucks is cheap compared to a cooked engine. Just my 6 pence worth. Check the disclaimer:

" In general, there is a lot of assistance available on the MegaSquirt Forums Web site (http://www.msefi.com/), in this manual (http://www.megamanual.com/v22manual/mtabcon.htm), and on the MegaSquirt FAQ (http://www.megamanual.com/), but ultimately YOU are responsible for the safe and reliable construction and operation of your electronic fuel injection system and its components, including the MegaSquirt controller. Before doing anything else, be sure to read and understand all applicable safety precautions (http://www.megamanual.com/v22manual/safety.htm) for your vehicle, tools, and equipment."
