Haven’t heard of the new unit you speak of. But I do know of a couple people running Megasquirt. Just do some research, im sure you’ll find what your looking for if you try. ---

The thread title is asking about “the best” and you mention Megasquirt? To the OP, before we can talk about best, perhaps you can tell us your budget because that is likely more of a limiting factor. a) Best under $1000? b) Best under $3000? c) Best under $10000? d) Best under $30000? ---

might want to look into Nistune, i have used it on several sr20det’s greatprice and driveability with almost no tuning limits. If you are building a daily/race car this is by far the best choice. if you have any questions about it let me know. [www.nistune.com](http://www.nistune.com) ---
