F9 anyone???
Does anyone out there run an F9 anymore??? I was just wondering if it was going to be problematic, and what some of the pros and cons will be running an older unit like this...

this is all good to hear! at least i am not alone out there. so i take it that you guys are running old school ignition and manual boost control successfully? the motor i bought was built that way, and i wanted to be sure that someone else in this big ol world was doing the same so there might be some support if i had questions...
Pros:
Simple
Cheap
Cons:
Simple
Very Old
DOS Software (problems running on XP)
If it needs to get checked out it has to go to australia
Only does fuel, no timing, meaning you'd have to either do an old distributor swap and locked timing, or leave the stock ECU controlling timing
Get your self a system that controls both fuel and ignition, the E6X is a decent entry level system for the money, even the E6K's are still showing up at a decent price.
But with the newer laptops with no serial ports, old DOS software gets harder to make it work, its not impossible, but difficult for the average user non the less.
