    Engine management system for Macintosh?

    ok, i'm thinking of getting an aftermarket fuel management system, like EMS or something similiar, but my only laptop is a mac. Does anyone know of a system like this that will work with a mac??

    Megasquirt works with Macs I believe...Macs are the shit bytheway...


    Check out Megasquirt online...their EMS is amazing, albeit a bit tricky to install, but well worth all the hassle...there are legions of fans using this...

      I have been pondering this question myself. I am going to buy a mac in the near future, and I was hoping something like Crome or Uberdata was compatable with a mac. Maybe MRX will chime in.

        Good question. Did a quick search on http://forum.pgmfi.org/ and i've come across just one guy that uses a virtual pc of some sort, some conscrewed version of XP, and has gotten an ems to work but he says its alot better and hassle free to just buy a cheap laptop for like $100-200. He eventually gave up and borrowed his roommates laptop.

        You guys are welcome to search on pgmfi tho. Maybe you'll find somethin i overlooked...i only searched for like 3mins.

          I have virtual PC, unless you have pretty much the highest end powerbook, it's not really worth it. i have a 1.5ghz ibook, and it will run, but it's kinda a hassle, he's right.

            I figured that would be the case.

              uberdata is pretty much dead. Blake (the guy who wrote uber) disapeared and will not release the source code (which is pretty ghey considering its free anyway). if he would release the souce, porting it to Unix (mac, linux, etc) would be fairly easy. unfortuantly, uberdata 1.7 looks like its goign to be the "final release"

              your best bet to get Uber to work on a mac is to get a program called "VMWare", install it on your mac, install windows (even win98 will work) and use uberdata that way.

              VMware is not free, so you may have to crack it

                      Crome IS an EMS.
