I think it's fairly easy to do the ignition. The
hardest part is actually getting the car started with
all the different settings, but a little trial and
error will get you going. Ignition really isn't that
hard to tune. The quick map function will get you
started, and from there it's just gradually easing
into it listening for knock. It would be really easy
on a NA motor since you don't have to chase around
different manifold pressures. I think they're support
is good. I sent them one question about different
power stages, and they got back to me about two days
later. Why are you worried about reliability?
