I have installed one on my car. It is great to tune and is simple. The 
only problem is it doesn't work with 5 cyl engines. Also they don't 
include harness and you need to build one yourself. Their connectors are 
no good for rally as I found out. The one to use on low budget for 5 cyl 
is Autronics and it can be purchassed from John Buffum direct. For high $ 
use Motec (double the price). There was many details with Electromotive 
to learn. Let me know if interested.
