Does anybody have a BTDT on the Haltech E6K?

Thanks for sharing.

Reliability is key in my project since it is a rally car. Some things that one
never thinks in a track are subject to enormous strain in a bumpy gravel road.
Just to give you an idea, more than one people involved in rally pointed out
that my brake lines in the MC junction are a bit too long (I replaced all
brake components), and that sooner or later it will brake at the fitting with
the vibration. So, cutting and flaring is in my short list.

It is good to know that they have a feature to get you going.

We'll see, first I need to finish the engine (I'm still waiting for ordered
parts), put it in the car, and then I'll have a better feeling of when I'll
attack the engine management.

Thanks again,

Carlos.
