okay I'm having a 20b swap done to my fd and I'm looking at three different ecu's i wanted everyones opinion for each one. Also I want to say that This car is not a race car and needs to be a street car I have a daily driver but I want the car to be able to be daily driveable the only reason that It won't be is because of gas mileage. the car will be occasionally taken to the drag strip and the track from time to time. the three ecu's are: electromotive tec3r, microtech ltx12, motec m800. any information or opinions are appreciated.

The Microtech is very easy to install and works good. The software interface isn't the greatest to work with, but compared to the others you listed there I don't know which is the easiest to work with.



Microtech also loads a base map for your 20b, the wiring is set up specfically for the 20b when you order it. A good choice for a street car, I think. Not a lot of bells and whistles.

I've always been around electromotive with good results. What it really comes down to is how much support you have for the ECU in your area!

Exactly, doesn't matter what ecu you have if you don't know what you're doing with it.



I'd go with the Motec personally..
