Which ECU to buy

I am going to sell my Link ECU and go with another ECU. I'm leaning toward the E11. Any issues with the E11 I should think about prior to buying it? Also going with the LS1 coils. Any suggestins? Thanks. Also running the reworked stock twins..

theres a sweet group buy going on for the electromotive tec3r right now. check the group buy section. If you can swing the cash for it, its definitely one of the best.

I run the E11v2 and am very happy with it. I ran it with LS1 coils very easily on the stock twins.

Microtech and Haltech are both good. Microtech has an excellent wiring diagram and is more user friendly.

LT-12

E11

Stay away from the Wolf EMS for 20B apps as I am yet to figure it out, and the support sucks big time!

I think that you'll be happy with your choice. I cant' disagree with Rez when he says microtech is more userfriendly, but having worked with both, I can honestly say, only BARELY, so little so that i would barely even say there is a difference

you might want to do a little research before committing on those coils. David Hayes had some problems with those, and I might have too . . . I say might have because I never fully diagnosed my hiccups, I just did a major reconfiguration with too many variables changed at once to properly assess the problem.

You've got some time, so I would try to avoid impulse buying and search around. . .there's a good chance those will be ample for you depending on your goals.

good luck
