Ok, noob question probably..

I'm wondering which ECU you recommend for the following setup on my FD:

13B with ~20k miles
3mm Apex Seals
M2 Ballbearing Twins (running parallel)
Spearco custom FMIC
Downpipe
Highflow Cat
Exhaust (currently Greddy SP, but likely to change)
M2 Intake

My goal for the car with injectors (thinking 650 primary, 850 secondary, and maybe a single 1300 additional) and ECU is 15lbs and ~350whp. The ballbearings aren't on the car yet, just the stock twins running parallel.

RP will do the work, since they're the only guys here in the Texas region I trust.

I was going to do Haltech - it's RPs specialty and Ari has taken it a long way. It's also cost-effective since I already have a laptop and don't have to spring for the controller like I would for the PowerFC.

Any other recommendations?

One big recommendation...

Use the EMS that your tuner has experience with, and let them deal with choosing fuel injetors, fuel pumps, etc., in order to meet your performance requirements.

I think I will. I've come across a Pettit tuned ECU that was made to match my exact mods that I'm running (except the upgraded turbos). I'm going to pick it up and run that while I do some cosmetic stuff, then go back for the Haltech.

Thanks man!
