Does anybody have a BTDT on the Haltech E6K?

Jim,

I followed your post, and actually it was it that lead me to look more clos=
ely
to a Haltech solution.

I'm a little far from making a decision on the engine management in my
project. I'll be using the OE stuff at the beginning and once I feel
comfortable with it, I'll ditch the CIS.

BTW, this is not a turbo conversion, it is a hybrid NA engine (bottom 7A/ t=
op
NF) with a 11:1 CR. (Javad, I got this information from Ron Wood).

So with it come the questions:

How difficult is to tune the ignition part?

How's the support? (I looked at their forum, and the search yelded only one
post for Audi's)

I'm also a bit concern with reliability.

TIA,

Carlos.
