Hi

Well the mega sounds really good, I have just got a complete EFI setup
for my series 2 jag which has SU's now, Jaguar retrod the EFI to this
model in some and fitted a separate loom to make it easy. I got the lot,
but want to fit something like the mega, I have looked also at the
wolfems system the wolf3d, has anyone used or compared this to the mega?

right for the motorola-based megasquirt

That is the beauty of the megasquirtavr. Hardwarewise  
it's as simple as a megasquirt
(except it has a stepper-motor-driver, which you don't mount
if you don't need it): about 1/3 of the money
 and labor compared to building efi332.
Yet, because of it's powerful processor (atmel.com mega128) it can be 
programmed in C, do sequential, provide signal for dummy ignition
or smart ign-module, drive LCD and still have plenty of resources left
for your own enhancements. (think of megasquirt, megaspark and 
megaview functionality + more, but only one 2 sided 10x16 cm PCB)
