Not running a motec or HKS or Haltech. I just want to keep the ECU under wraps until I am sure it runs the VVt-i as it claims. I don't wanna provide info that isn't real. I guess I am the guinea pig on this since I know that no-one has used this system yet. I will let you all know when it is controlling the motor as I need it to do.
If you wanna know just pm me.

sick in the head!!
Well, the car returns home tonite. I did drive it around 2 nights ago to get it street tuned. It felt better with the new ECU over the Autronic SM4 that was installed. Can't really say why. It did idle much more stable even with the larger cams.
Hope to get the fuel system installed soon, then off to the dyno.
Currently setting low boost at 10 psi. High boost TBD on the dyno.

Wow..
Wow...HI98GS4
Trully inspiring... your build breaths new life into into my GS4, it's refreshing to know that this car has such potential, that you can run the engine and tranny into the ground and then totally rebuild it from the ground up into a harder, faster, stronger freakin' bionic six million dollar man Steve Austin *****!
good for you man, I know your enjoying every minute of it.
Did you go to a technical school? or did you develop your skills on your own?
I would love to pic your brain sometime when you have time, would like to do something like this to my GS..
