I've heard the microtech is like a toy compared to a haltech, I'd go with the haltech.

I was reading about the E6X earlier. Will that properly control the timing split on a 20B?

What do the Microtech units lack..could it be improper tuning or are they just not as accurate or fast as some others?

nope, its just an updated e6k, the main difference is that on a 4 cylinder car it can go sequential injection and wastespark; whereas the e6k you had to choose one or the other. for the 2 rotors its basically the same

They are definately not a sophisticated as some of the others, but then they are cheaper and easier to set up than most of the others too. They can be made to run very well, but my experience this is not done in one dyno session. Any ECU can do WOT, it's the light throttle settings that sort the men fron the toys. This is an area where the 16 & 32-bit ECUs have an advantage, and the Microtech takes some work.....on the street with the bum dyno!

I fiddled with small things for weeks after I got mine going because I was not prepared to accept poor light throttle behavior. I do not doubt some others can be better, but at a price. I would have Motec if I could justify it
