He has a dart block, 347 stroker scat stuff, afr 185 heads, motec injection and 150hp wet NOS setup. It was tuned by spiro at Granville AutoTech and from memory was in the low 30's for the built and tuned motor. It has a Trickflow intake and 70mm TB
I have already told you this Micky, good luck with it though

Nuh im looking towards to EMS 8860 and apparently his car had it and wanted to see what ignition setup he has and speak to his tuner. EMS 8860 seems to have everything i need and more and for the money seems to be a great unit.

Just gathering all the info i need before i make a decision on what unit ill use and most importantly tuner.

I am running it and cant fault it, but i have already told you that.
See Joe at Crescent, he is a great tuner for the 8860 on the 8's, mine is testament to that

8860 is a great option.. it's what I was going to go for before I had a Motec M800 come up at the right price.

Yeh i noticed the 8860 has 96 x 32 resolution, dont know it that is any good 2 the tuner?

But seems that all other ECU's dont come near that resolution
