MEGAJOLT OR NODIZ
Turbo Mini Forums

Hi peeps straight to the point which would you buy Megajolt or Nodiz!

What's about Canems?

I'd use MJ as there's a lot of maps out there to get you started.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

Megajolt has been around for years now. It's proven and I very much doubt it is going anywhere. Nodiz, whilst it 'could' be a fantastic product still has a reputation to build.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

I am going to go with nodiz when I get the money. The reason being that there is less hardware (no edis) and more features as standard. You can control it from an android phone wirelessly and can also use the phone to display a digital dash, and things like a rev limiter and other features are built in as standard. On the down side people have less experiance with it than megajolt, and I think it works out more expensive, although there is not much in it price wise if you are buying brand new.

Mj is tried and tested. Its easy to install and works well

As above MJ works! Nodiz looks the same tbh from the software side of things. However not having used the Nodiz yet i've no idea how it performs. The main plus for me was the air intake/water temp plugs and the dash app; oh and the loss of edis.

Time will tell and im just a sucker for new tech stuff :)

Plus the name 'Nodiz' is seriously wank.

I would like to know the outcome of this, will be interesting to know

The Nodiz does look like a nice piece of kit and with some nice features.

If I was building a car that required Dizzyless Ig, Id have a stab with the Nodiz, having said that the mjlj works on mine and is well proven.

this +1

i would pick mjlj, purely because its simple and works,

I think unless you have seen what comes in the Nodiz box you cant really comment on the simple side of things. If anything from the looks of it its simpler, comes with plug already wired, no edis so really all you have to do is wire up the coil and the VR sensor. All of which is explained in the overly simple manual.

Not saying the MJ isnt simple but out of the box the Nodiz looks much more user friendly; the working part i've yet to review :)

Did any of you guys research the supplier before you spent your cash?

Megajolt uses outdated used Ford parts. Nuff said!

Brett,

Not sure what point you are trying to make really? The name Nodiz is in reference to not requiring a distributor, i.e - NO DIZZY.... And in terms of EDIS in scrap yards for pennies, I havent' seen a Mk3 Fiesta in any local breakers for years!

We (motorsport electronics ltd) designed the Nodiz from the ground up to help those who want a real straightforward approach.

So, using your logic, if you are favouring an ignition controller on simplicity, then the NODIZ wins hands down due to simply LESS wiring and less external componentry, and in terms of 'works', well I can assure you the 6 months we spent testing it, and the amount of miles us and our customers and beta testers have clocked up, that it too satisfies that requirement, and I am looking forward to more feedback from the field as I enjoy adding features and requests. The Android digital dash was something I did as a technical challenge as we were already using Bluetooth for comms, and from there it just sort of came about, now its one of the more 'wow' factors of the NODIZ... I had one guy call up to order one, not wanted to actually run ignition control, just wanting the dash! Random!

Its 'laptop free' if you want it be as we can preload a map for you and once you it wired in (the miminal 2D isnatll is just 5 connections!) you can use the buttons on the unit itself to setup the crank angle (ie you dont need it bang on 90* like EDIS) as well as calibrate your TPS, so there's no need for a laptop at all. And in terms of maps, I am in the process creating an app to you let you translate a Megajolt map for the NODIZ. This of course means interpolating as MJs 12x12 table needs to be scaled up to 16x16 for the NODIZ, but again, no real hassle...

I would not touch anything associated with mtech with a 10 foot pole. Due to their history, you have no way of knowing if they have the rights to the firmware and hardware they're using.
