v3 of the MS-II hardware.  The newer hardware is better, with USB instead of serial connections, a flash card port for
data logging, etc.  I'm now looking at adding a serial to bluetooth adapter so that I can drive an engine instrument
display on an Android device.

for firmware, I have v3.1 of MS2Extra loaded.

It drives an EDIS-4 ignition, and reads an Innovate LS-1 oxygen sensor.  In addition to the stock IAT and CLT sensors, I
added an oil temp sensor.  How to do that is not explained well at all in the docs. If I were going to do it again I'd
foot the bill for the GPIO port expander, so that I could record my EGTs into the same file as everything else.

What kind of engine are you looking to put one on?
