   Hi guys,
   I am starting a new project for my VTS 16v 1.6. Just want to have your feedback (if any) regarding how to choose the correct fuel and ignition computer, for instance, is better electromotive, haltech, perfect power... does anybody have experience with that?
   any info will be highly appreciated.

   personally i have never heard of those brands, but then again you have probably never heard of some of the thing we use.

   perfect power is a good product, and comes with the complete harness and its easy to install to a saxo, as it has a wiring diagram for nearly all cars.
   
   haltech standalone unit is even better, but expensive.but never used haltech before but i know its good.

   Ive got a haltech e6k fitted to my ax vtr and have been runing it for about a year and a half without any probs, exelent bit of kit with more functions than you'll ever use.
   
   the software is a peice of piss to use and with the new e6x you get a windows based version with all manour of 3d graphs.
   
   In the uk you can get thor-racing to map/install it for you if your not confident, but they don't list prices on their site.
   
   you'll have to know your shit on the wiring front if you're going to do it yourself as the included harness replaces your current engine loom, but has no connectors fitted, (ecu plug with about 30 bits of wire hanging off)
   
   found a company in sydney (www.tweakit.com.au) that ship world wide, plus they have a drop down on their site that changes ALL their prices directly to gbp.
   
   Good luck.
   
   Pete
