Yes, it's practically a twin except for the turbo size - you have a T3/T04 with external waste-gate, I have a GT25R/GT28R with internal waste-gate. Cat will be replaced before AirCare but I want to see if I can get the MegaSquirt in before doing the Cat replacement

One more thing - are you running 1 or 2 cat now?

I believe you just need to ensure everything is "ready" because there is no history over OBD-II - I could be wrong though. It does take a while before the O2 sensor readings are ready. After replacing my front O2, my rear O2 is throwing code but that could be due to a bad cat throwing the readings way off
As long as the MegaSquirt keeps you OBD2, you can even go through AirCare with that, cause the scan tool will still only read your factory ECU. Every car's different with its OBD2 logging. My bros told me to get new Toyota trucks through AirCare, you have to reset it then leave it overnight, then do 8 straight hours of specific driving. Drive stop n go for 40 min, then let it idle for 2 hours or something stupid, then hit the highway, etc. Some vehicles are a big pain.

I'm not running any cats at the moment, they're both hollowed out.
