What do you want to control with it, just fuel, or spark or whatever?

it will just be the the Fueling

Megasquirt II extra, with loom - £300
Sensors - £50
Throttle bodies - £100
Fuel system (pipe, hose, fuel pump, swirl pot) - £150
Fuel rail - £50

So I would budget on around £700.

If you want to self tune correctly, then a Wide band controller is a big help - £200

For just fueling a MS1 would be sufficient, which is cheaper.

What type of engine / no. cylinders.
As above, fuel and sparks?
Thottle bodies or not.
Ugradge to current ECU or carb. replacement.

My Suzuki Carb. conversion to ITB's was on a budget.
Megasquirt V2.2 kit from the USA cost less than £100 but then over $1.80 to the £1.00

You can either DIY, get a mate to do it for mates rates or get one ready built.

Note, you will need good soldering / build quality or risk brake downs.
