yes sold my rx7, we had enough troubles with daves rx3 last year and i didnt want any troubles with mine, Jon from microtech owns it now

my V8 has run a 12.2 with a stock LS1 engine with the usuall bolt ons so its fast enough for a everyday car

no not tuning related, OEM part related.... mazda quality control is not all they make it out to be..... we has lots of mazda parts that were not flat or straight etc.

and as soon as we threw the AEM CDI in the bin and swapped over to the Microtech LT10 and X4 all our problems went away

believe me a 2j was discussed for the rx3

Good question. Self tunning would really help.

I'm a little bit more interested in the traction control feature, among other things that will be available with it.

I'm just a little skeptical of the self tuning feature, being new with Microtech and all. It's a great feature, but I'd like to see others have it in action before I progress onto that feature. I'm also a bit worried as to why it's taking them so long to release this ECU. I'm guessing if they're running into problems, it's probably with the self tuning feature.

-Alex

Edit: I may be jumping ahead of myself here...You will be able to tune the ECU yourself, rather than using the auto tune feature, correct?

Hopefully in the next 2 months! I already have an LT10s, X4 ignition module, and the Bosch coils sitting in a box new, waiting to be installed when my car is finished up. If some new things are coming out, i'd like to sell this stuff off and go ahead and get it before the car is finished with these items installed. I'd get a tad bit more money for the items since they are still brand new at the moment!

My luck everything will be released as soon as I get the LT10s installed and my car running!

Are you by chance refering to the firmware and software updates for the S series that we've been waiting on for what seems like years now?

Hey Dale, I hope with you selling your 7 It's not giving a warrant to leave the Microtech forum. Do pass by from time to time.

Thanks for the heads up on Microtechs updated site.
