why spend so much money and they dont even start in the cold
there should be a parameter for cold climates

Microtechs have a cold cranking map and air/water timing/fuel temperature correction maps like any other ECU. They also have afterstart enrichment like all other ECUs.
Where are you getting this misinformation?

The process is the same regardless of the ECU used. Even if it is something as archaic as the Microtech.

it basically a surprise when my brother bought the car and the seller did not say there was a micotech in there ..we have no clue on microtech ..so we tried to do some research but still could not get the car to start in the cold
so now we have the manual we just dont understand where we should start
we have a tuner t&r but they do haltech all we need is a map to get it started
or some base parameters to go by and adjust accordingly

What happens when you try to start the car?
Does it crank forever and not catch?
Does it start and then immediately stall?
Please describe in detail what the issue is and we can suggest settings to change.
