Microtech LT8 for me........
Hi, I've been searching around about the microtech lt8 and i can't seem to find anything that answer the questions I have. It was purchased for an S4 turbo II (by previous owner) but I have an 1991 S5 converted to turbo. Is it possible to run this lt8 to my S5 and if so what do i need to do to have it run perfectly on mine? The set-up I have on my car is stock turbo injectors both primaries and secondaries. Stock intake plenums (upper and lower), stock top mount intercooler, I have a slight I would say a street port on my exhaust side on the housing. The intake ports AREN'T ported, custom air intake, and a old school racing beat turbo exhaust with no cats. Sorry if that is a bit much but anyone who has helpful input would be greatly appreciated. Oh and to make this clear I'm planning on using this EMS as a replacement for the stock computer on my fresh rebuilt engine that I'm currently putting together as we speak. I plan on keeping the car for a long time so reliability mods are going to come first (bigger radiator, bigger oil cooler, bigger oil pan, etc......). The car is going to be my daily for the meantime till I find a beater (with occasional track days like auto-X, drag, and HPDE schools)
Thanks in advance for your time!

Any Microtech for a 2nd gen 13B will run any other 2nd gen 13B.
I wouldn't recommend a Microtech for a daily driver though due to the lack of BAC valve support, closed loop support, and lack of 3D timing tables.

Any EMS besides Microtech. My favourites are Megasquirt and Haltech.
Microtech is just way too behind the times. And I feel betrayed by the company whom has been promising us LT8s users upgrades for 8 years now...and what do we have to show for it? Nothing. Many of us bought the ECUs on the promise of continuing future firmware updates.
