Advice to a new forum member: Some members will not be interested in the other thread, will not read the other thread, and will never see your new question. I've split this into a New Topic of its own so you will get the most help possible. They're free, so feel free to start a new discussion topic every time you have a separate question.
Also, you will get MUCH more useful/helpful advice when you ask smart questions. Lots of members here have done lots of things with the MS systems. They have left their discussions here, and the search function will yield answers to many of the questions you don't even know to ask yet.

If you have plans for a turbo later, getting a working known-good setup will be helpful when you go to forced induction. Meanwhile, it will help maybe single-digits of percent once properly tuned (read: by a professional, on a dyno).

Diyautotune.com is coming out with an adapterbox for our 88pin connector that will make connecting a MS plug and play. Without waiting for 6mnth like I did for mine from kfxperformance. Search for previous posts that a decent amount of material here about.
That's assuming your running 97-01 tib. If not you will have to fab your own connector or connections.I suggest to keep it clean getting ahold of an ecu for cheap and scrapping everything but the connector. Use the back of the plug to solder your ms connection cable to. Basically like this one in the link for a mustang.

It's out for a decent price.
This will allow you a way to connect any aftermarket engine management not just megasquirt.
