Hi Lee. Good to see you're having a go
I've no doubt Chris will be along in a minute to tell you all about the Motec system.

 

Now that what I want to here!! Motec I love that name! but can I get one for that money?

 

can motec control the vvt or is there a aftermarket management that can ?

It's fine mate but a bit tight being a brand new block and all that.
Try and book that track day at mallory park
Good to see you're still talking to me

 

ya but don't try it on with my bird or i'll open a can of whooop ass on ya

 

DTA is an option... either EXP48 or P8Pro..

Some info available to read up on and play with the free software here at http://www.dtafast.co.uk

 

whats so bad about emerald?
a mate runs an 1800 16v with eaton m62 charger on emerald, just shy of 240 atf, 192lb/ft. lovely

 

not a very high torque figure for a charged engine, have you counted the piston recently?

 

Emerald are fine they have recently updated there system to run boost controll etc, Take a look at that red mk2 20vt 4wd (jef Webb) that runs 400+bhp 0-60 3.81 all from an emerald system.

 

one good thing about that car is the way the syncro system can handle the power, but its had more pistons than petrol

 

not personally, i thought the same when he told me, but it drives well so the hell with it!

 

so i've got two grand what should i be buying guys!!!!! [:^(]

 

Motec seems to be good, Electromotive has been highly recomended
by a trusted source

or get hold of OEM and pocket 2k

 

how good is the OE ECU compared with these aftermarket ECUs
as i remember someone saying a while ago that the OE stuff on
the 20vt s is quite good.


if you cant be arsed wiring it yourself, use part
of the 2k to pay someone to do it for you?

 

The OE is by far the best.

Lee, dont do down the aftermarket route, get designa dubs to put it on standard management.

Dad is with the 20vt after beign on emerald.
