Does anybody know if the MSP ECU will work with a vehicle that doesn't have ABS? I am piecing together my turbo kit and bought the ECU already. Didn't think about the ABS. Will it cause the Brake light and ABS light to illuminate? if so any way around it?

You will have to add ABS for the speedo to work with the MSP ECU.

ABS has NOTHING to do with the ECU... they are separate control units
the speedometer signal goes to the speedometer first before going to the ECU... ABS or not has no bearing on whether the speedometer will work with the MSP ECU or not... plenty of people have done this swap and it works

This is very good to hear. This kinda killed my motivation as I thought I wasted a good chunk of change on this ECU. Im glad this community is still alive (Kind of). Someones always got the info I need. Thanks to TheMAN.
