sounds like a pretty cool ECU but I have yet to hear BTDT on it (which
is why I went 034).  It will be cool to hear how Ken's luck on it turns
out.

nah, I have no desire to go back to the MAC ignition setup.  Even with
all of the MAC 11 electronics in place you still need a set of pins
driven into your cam to signal the fuel ECU as it expects one pulse per
cam revolution per cylinder.  I didn't want to have to do that as it
seemed a bit hackish to me.  Whatever setup I end up using will either
use a set pins on the flywheel or the 5-window style of audi
distributors for signaling (like used for CIS III).  I hear the linkplus
is supposed to be able to deal with the Motronic style of ignition
timing (one flywheel pin to indicate x degreese btdc cyl. #1, then the
teeth on the flywheel and the single window distributor to keep things
running) .. Ken, how are you coming along?
