I have access to CNC equipment to build an engine from scratch but there is only so many minutes in a day.... and I'd rather cash those chips on the other 80% of the project I'm looking to tackle. Good to see there is still a company out there that maintains grass roots possibilities.

An Arduino based Open ECU would be awesome, i have been dreaming about this for quite some time (did quite a few smaller arduino projects in the meanwhile).
if you ever do this, i would love to assist
