Well I may be trading my fc and starion for a complete s5 long block. And i am going to put it in my 88 GTU.

I know that the electrical is the main difficulties of this swap thus the reason for going stand alone. My future plans are a SP lightwieght rotors and modification to the intake and exsaust.

My choices are the usual ones

A wolf 3d
haltech
and Ms

I am leaning towards the ms because it is fairly cheap, and I heard that there is a forum member that sells a harness for them fairly cheap.

I have looked up the 3 stand alones on here but it seems like everone gets all technical when trying to explain stuff. Rhen I get a little confused.

Thanks for the help in advance BTW.

 

all 3 of them are good choices......microtech is another one

 

I forgot about microtech thansk man

 

thanks for the move i just relized i put it in the wrong section and was gonna ask for it

 

haltech..lots of support for it..and its a good bang for the buck.
i may be a little biased

 

this has been covered on many a thread but what usually people end up getting is whatever thier tuner is comfortable with. i have microtech and my tuner is going to be steve who can tune anything you give him.

 

hehe about that there is no turning around these here parts. I mean not for rotories, if that counts for anything at all. basically i just want to be able to put it in. Tune it enough by myself (trust me ill rear on this as much as I can just so I dont **** up) get it running as good(maybe not as much HP as I can) and then and take it to get it dialed in.

The whole reason I posted this is because I am really really new to stand alones. But I do have some experinces with a piggy back if that counts.Basically I just dont wanna **** up and have my car sitting again for another year.

I searched and I couldnt find like hey this one is good for a less modified one or this one is more strait forward that is what i am basically looking for.

BTW were exactly is steve located.

 

well in that case I would get a haltech as I've heard they have an easier user interface. good luck though, call me dumb but I don't even want to atempt to tune my car and chance ruining my engine.

 

haltech or microtech.
