ECU help need advice

I am in the process of acquiring parts for a build and want to know what is more beneficial, easier to learn to use, and best performance wise a rtek 2.1 or a halteck e6k?
my additional mods will be a BNR hybrid turbo, custom TID, straight pipe exhaust, 720 cc injectors, walbro fuel pump, parallel fuel set up.

The Rtek will be far easier to learn, have nearly the potential of a haltech, and be considerably cheaper.

I agree with RR, but be careful asking these kinda questions, this thread could easily turn into 100 pages of people arguing over which one is better and why...

rtek is simpler, has MORE functions, and is already in the car.

haltech has nothing on that...

I am new to the RX7 world again but have heard nothing but good things about the Rtek 2.1 and its priced so well I really feel that is a great bang for the buck item for our cars. +1 on the Rtek

e6k is old too... for that turbo the Rtek will be fine and will be easier to make driveable. plus the installation will be easy.

we don't need a standalone vs chipped ecu debate here guys
