Does anyone have installed a Racelogic traction control system plus Megasquirt ECU?

I'm having compatibility problems with full story on MS Forum, but would like to see your experience. Thanks.

After a few contacts with Racelogic regarding me driving the car to them so that they can diagnose the problem, to their credit they have agreed to swap the TCS unit for a different version so a big thank you to them.

(Full story on MS Forum.)

Pinching a post on the MS Forum from DaveEFI, Dave suggested that it may be worth wiring my RV8 injector banks thus

Ignoring my Traction Control System, does anyone else have an opinion on wiring the two banks this way or the traditional odd / even banks.

(Thanks Dave.)

Presuming you run your exhaust left and right bank and no cross over it means your O2 sensors will be getting an average reading per bank averaging across the 2 batch fired sets

Wiring all together and you do not get the averaging

It is also done in a similar way on most 4 barrel carb manifolds

Oh yes.

Perhaps I should have said that I have two separate exhaust systems (one per side). Also, I have just one Lambda sensor that happens to be in the driver's side exhaust system so the MS unit is at the moment only getting an average of the O2 position based currently on the even bank. I guess changing to the above pattern, I'll actually get a better average being of both bank firings.
