Since Haltech is busy screwing over its distributors. Like Selling Hitmans stock out from under him.



I am considering Motech is it as good as or better than Haltech.



Can someone point me to a website so I can learn or thing or two about the Motec.

Motec is very top of the line, and i'm sure the price tag is too. Probably overkill and hard to find support for. I'd just stick to haltech or pfc. I think brian at rotorsports knows a thing or two about motec, if I remember right he showed me the software a long time ago, I think it was motec....... I know he is putting together some race cars with motec. www.rotorsportsracing.com His number is on his site if you want to talk to him.

I just purchased a M-4 it will do everything I need it to do. As far as support goes I am impressed. How about Motec finds the nearest facility that is familiar with RX-7's and is an Authorized Motec tuner and they foot the bill for the first 5 hours of dyno time. The whole unit with the harness cost me about $1600. They also offer an add on of a wideband O2 sensor for about $350 so you can tweek it on the street. Or, I can buy a whole independant O2 setup for $1K that can be easily switched from car to car.

haltech definately isn't in the same class as motec at all, the motec is by far the best management system out there. The autronic is so similar though that i wouldn't hesitate to use one over the other.
