Which interface you need
The MegaSquirt broadcasts at 500 kbit/s, which every DashCAN interface supports. Pick by how you want to connect to the car.
- DashCAN OBD
- Plug-and-play through the OBD port, when the port's CAN pins are on the bus the ECU broadcasts on. Moves between cars in seconds.
- DashCAN Wire-In
- Four screw terminals straight into the loom, for race cars without an OBD port.
- DashCAN Apex
- The same CAN interface plus a 25 Hz GPS lap timer, a 6-axis IMU and over two hours of onboard logging.
Setup
The First Steps guide has the MegaSquirt CAN connection, the exact settings in the tuning software, and the app pairing, step by step.
Add lap timing and G-forces
With the DashCAN Apex the MegaSquirt channels are recorded together with a 25 Hz GPS trace and a 6-axis IMU: automatic lap timing, acceleration runs, G-G diagrams and corner analysis in DashCAN Cloud, all on the same timeline as the engine data.
