the S-acf is $300 and takes an hour to install. and an hour to tune by a shop with a wide band o2

haltech costs $1200. will take a full weekend to install. asuming you are really good with wiring and can do it. Tunning will take a good few days of costly labour as well...

haltech will probably give you an extra 10hp maybe?? on an N/A over the safc. is it worth the difference? up to you...

MSD 6a is a cheap igniter, the twin power unit is for high horsepower rotarys.

WTF a haltech is a stand alone ECU which can control everything you want and it gets rid of that damn AFM.
SAFC is a piggybac that can only control so much.
See the difference.
MSD makes good ignition boxes for our cars too.
Might want to check out the Jacobs rotary pack too. -Gabe

If you think your tuning skills (this is VERY serious so don't be optimistic) are up to the task then I'd say go for the Haltech, if not S-AFC.

Jacobs rotary pro pack is a waste of money over the MSD 6a, which they do the exact same with no difference in either and the MSD is around 130 and the Jacobs is 300+
