kululadotgroen, I'm not the sort of person that tells everyone local management are bad without knowledge, we sold a XMS4 Perfect Power unit and a Gotech to upgrade to the XMS 5 units, which turned out to be a piss poor product, we even uploaded vids to youtube showing how the uits loose spark with there new "improved igniters" if you are running a distributor. The whole thing was a joke.
It costed me a season as the now ex blue Datsun I was using lost power randomly on the Gymkhana tracks, costing me run after run and hundreds of rands. My brother lost more than 6 months of competition due to the above, eventually he gave up on any hopes of scoring a single point in his championship.
We sold the XMS units back to PP at a total loss and bought Megasquirts, a lot more bang for buck.
If you want to spend your money wisely, look at the MegaSquirt products. I agree no ECU can make more power than the other and I will never say that, but the way interact and control things is another story, the ease of use, limits, control etc.
Gotech, just to give the other people some insight into what I call local:
They rave about launch control as a feature on their website, not in beta or anything, well you activate it, the computer retards timing to keep the motor to set launch rpm, launch and all of a sudden the motor does not want to deliver power. If you go and have a look at the timing, the unit does not revert back to the main ignition table, it sit stuck at some random ign value.
We used everything except Spitfire, but with all our experience, the only one I'll use to run my petrol weed eater is a dictator. It basic, but the features you pay for works.
