Help! Microtech vs Haltech?
HELP! Microtech vs Haltech?
my friend is in serious need of some advice:
he has a 13B-REW with a hi-flo T04 that has 4 Series6 injectors as normal, but then another 2 Series6 injectors mounted in the inlet manifold (6 total)
the engine management system running the car is(was) a Microtech Digi-1 for fuel & timing, and a Microtech Series1 for ignition (something like that).....they are incredibly old, primitive, archaic, stone-age, and totally inadequate.
The injectors are staged for 2 to work early in the revs, then 4 to work higher in the revs. The car is leaning out, stumbling, and having problems running in this manner.
Apparently the problem is in the staging of the injectors.
An ECU is needed that can operate the injectors in a smoother staged fashion. A Microtech MTX12 was recommended.
What we need to know is, is it possible to run a set-up of this nature in 4/2 or 2/4 configuration with any degree of safety? Or do 6 injectors *have* to be configured to run 2/2/2?
Will a Haltech (E6K?) run my friend's engine in this way?
What ECU should he buy?
Or does he have to purchase the Microtech MTX12?
Thanks!
