Whats that going to prove???? if you read some more of this thread, you'll find that the kinda general consensous is there is more to how good an EFI system is than how fast it can run a car down the 1/4 mile at W.O.T................................

 

No one has been comparing the ne Haltech to the current Microtech, the only comparisons that have been drawn are between the E6K and the LT8-LT12 and most people know that the E6K has more features and overall is a better package, but we all know that the Microtech is good for what it is and does it well. Even the E6A had more features and load points that the current crop of Microtechs!

I have never said to not use an MT, I just say to be aware that they are not the great system that many so called tuners lead you to believe.
This comes ddown to the installer and wiring quality, but I have NEVER seen a MT hold ignition timing steady. turn the Timing Lock ON, connect a timing light, and watch the timing scatter.
I am not the only person who will say this. I recommend those on a budget who just need their car running to go and get an MT although I don't sell them and don't want to. But if you are serious about getting your car running properly then look for a Haltech/Motec/Autronic. -The Hitman


"Its datalogging is better than Haltech, has more drivers than the Haltech, it's Windows based (vs Haltechs DOS app), its not 2D but most importantly it doesn't have issues with timing or injector drivers. Microtech in my opinion is much more reliable. " - Mario

So where is the truth? Both ECU's have timing scatter?
Does the Microtech software exceeds haltech with its superior datalogging features "MOTECish"?

Could someone elaborate on the datalogging features of the Microtech ECU that makes it that much better than the Haltech?

I'm looking for a reliable ECU without the MOTEC price tag. This thread will really help me to decide.

 

I can get you some screen dumps with some data on it if you like, but i wont be able to do it for a few days as i have to go to a mates place and hook up my laptop and go for a drive,
the data logger logs everything that is hooked into the ecu, afr, tps, map, injector ms, water temp, air temp, ign timing etc etc, ill do one screen dump with a few on then one with all on, ill get back to you.

i've also stated in my earlier threads that what a system does on the strip is definitely not reflective of how it performs on the road in daily driving. though i totally agree w/ you i'd still like to know what everyone is using, simply out of curiousity.

moreover, although racers setups on the strip, not just with ecu's but with all modifications, cannot be duplicated on the street, the fact remains that it does sell product. what people see on the track is what they're gonna put on their street car, simple as that. that's why companies sponsor race cars even though a majority of their products are sold for street cars. in that sense, knowing which racer uses what system, is relevant in determining the next trend in ecu's.

 

To save myself some time, I will sum up my argument to the contrary with this one simple statement:

If that were true, this thread wouldn't exist.

This thread proves, if nothing else, that at least SOME people are interested in making informed purchases.
