Guy's,

I am about to get my motor back from the Engine Shop. Rb25/30 for my Vl Turbo. I am currently sorcing my fuel system(Standard rail, Malpassi Rising Rate Fuel Reg, 800cc Sard injectors, 044, surgetank and standard Vl turbo pump feeding the surge tank etc).

What do you guy's recommend ECU Wise. I dont have enough for a Motech(Unfortunately). I'm thinking either Haltech E6X or a Microtech....

Also I will need a shop in SE QLD(Good Tuner) to give me a run in tune and then come back for the good stuff once it's run in.

any suggestions would be great.......

cheers

From my mates research the new motec should actually be cheaper than the new equivant haltech. So Id look in to it a bit more. He does have a 4cyl, but got a quote of $2200 installed, but not tuned for the motec.

Spend all that money to skimp on the bit that actually runs it. Id rather save for another month or 3.

Just me tho.

go for the microtech a little more tuner friendly

& as for shops go to mercury motorsport @ newmarket on newmarket road

We've got a VL turbo, doesn't have the rb25 head though, just all RB30, and it's got a haltech E6K..

But as Dave said, theres no point coming this far and then skimping on the most important part. I'm not sure of the specifics between haltech and microtech, but our haltech works well.

Our VL's mostly (I say mostly.. because I think redcliffe dyno did the original tune) been tuned by Matty Spry, although he hates the car (long running joke), I'd have to say he's the best all round tuner in SEQ. ... maybe even QLD or Australia!! (big call!)

He's also tuned our skyrice numerous times and I wouldn't go to anyone else now.

He's straight down the line with no bullshit.

Got a Microtech LT 12s, from what i know quite easy to tune etc and there a good unit.

The Haltech is a better unit than the Microtech but the Haltech will cost you around $600 extra. I know of more people who can tune the Microtech but like Erin said....it works well. If I had to choose between the two it would be the Haltech.

At the end of the day, neither will give you any more horsepower than the other so it would be best to surf to their respective websites and see which functions would best suit you. Also talk to some tuners (Matt Spry, The guys at Mercury, Hardcore) and ask them what are the advantages and disadvantages. Be careful as many tuners are not in the habit of giving out free information so you might need to make them think they will be supplying and install/tuning the thing. lol.

WOLF 3D hahaha no go the Microtech

Just a note, piss that malpassi rising rate fuel reg off, they rise when they feel like it and will f**k up the tune.
