Talking Engine management systems...

Just curious to see what EMS people are running on thier FCs. I have been researching what I might go with--and have no real preference at this point. Just what you are using and how do you like it kind of info would be cool! Thanks.

Im running a Wolf3d V4 with the hand held controller. Has very nice windows software, mapping system and compensation maps are similar to comparably priced systems.

I personally like it. Unit actually mounted where the stock ecu was in my GXL, made for a clean install. Id buy again if i needed another EMS

I see you have an '88 NA.

I've just ordered the Digital Tuning RTEK-7 Stage 2 for the S4 NA. I should be shipping my ECU to them real-soon-now for piggybacking. Their system requires the use of a Palm-OS PDA, but at $399 for what is an apparently capable EMS, it is an option to consider. (Used Palms are cheap on eBay.)

I can't give any real feedback yet, but TII Stage 2 users seem generally pleased.

There is an engine managment subforum here in the club, it has a ton of info. I'd take a peek around in there and see what people have to say.

RTEK Stage 2 for S4 & S5 N/A imminent...

FWIW, I just got an email from Mike Montalvo at Digital Tuning saying I could go ahead and send in my ECU for the Stage 2 S4 N/A upgrade.

He also said they're finishing up S5 N/A this weekend and hope to officially introduce both next week.

Haltech E6X here.

Also had some experience with a Microtech (LT8s). Both are great systems IMO

Keen!

I like the Megasquirt system-but at the moment think it might be a bit more function than I need-and the Rtek has a cool interface with the PDA functions...still researching but really great input guys, keep it coming!!
