Choice of CAS

Hey everyone, I have a 13bre rx8 and running a haltech. I wanted to know which system is a better setup. I currently have the stock 13bre front cover with the stock (S4-5) CAS, I've read that these can sometimes vary up to 10degrees at some point. I also have a S6 front cover with the 2 separate magnets which I've also heard that the quality and resolution of these sensors aren't that great. So my question is should I stick with the stock 13bre cover and cas setup or use the FD cover(which also involves me fabricating a new oil pan)?

Yeah I was going to mention that I have already seen that, but I have a old haltech e6k which is kind of confusing me because I know it supports quite of few setups but not a rx8 wheel. Also I need my a/c to stay-everything fits and bolts up but I don't think that wheel would fit.

send em a PM and see if they can make some spacers to make it work. the trigger wheel can sandwich between the pulleys also, but i'm not sure if they have anything that will work with the E6K as it's a bit outdated.

Ok, so can someone answer my original question? Which CAS setup is better to use? Distributor style or the twin magnet(FD style)?
