710 is better as it can do sequential injection just like a L8.
Cannot see any benefit. a new loom and a good map sorts most if not all cossie problems.

i had it on my saph mate - its got a lot more features as standard such as wasted spark and anti-lag. The downside is batch firing on 600 but as long as its mapped right then it wouldnt be much of a problem as plenty of cossies run them.

The UI for mapping is fairly simple too if you wanted to map some of it yourself

like you say mate it has some good features as standard

Semi-sequential fuel injection for up to 4 cylinder engines
Distributorless or distributor ignition for up to 4 cylinders
Programmable load and speed sites
TPS or MAP can be used for main load sensing
Wide range of crank trigger patterns are suitable (user programmable)
Turbo wastegate control
Turbo anti-lag system
Variable cam control
Launch control
Narrow and wide band lambda support
Push/pull, and single line idle controls in addition to scattered spark control
Knock sensing capability
3 programmable outputs switched on user controlled inputs (eg boost, coolant temp etc)
Security protected calibrations
Full throttle gearchange
Intercooler water spray control
Water injection control
Nitrous ignition retard and fuel enrichment
Two cooling fan controls
Barometric compensation with external sensor
Uses the latest version of the superb MAP3000 Windows programming software
Suitable for normally aspirated or boosted engines
Inbuilt independent fuel and ignition rev limiters
Separate Tachometer, Shift Light and Fuel Pump outputs
Magnetic or Hall Effect crank sensors
Automatic interpolation between mapped sites
Sophisticated acceleration fuelling setup
Various harness options from economical semi-assembled to full race quality bespoke looms
Battery voltage compensation table for fuel injectors (not just a simple number)
Battery compensation and engine speed compensation for coil charge time
Mappable coolant temperature compensation for engine warm-up
Air & coolant temperature compensation for fuel injection pulse width
Separate cold cranking and decay tables in addition to warm-up fuelling
User settable ignition trim based on air temperature, coolant temperature, and barometric pressure
Separate start advance for cranking provides easy starting for high compression engines
Deceleration fuel cut-off feature for road engines
Maximum recommended engine speed 12,750 RPM
AND LOADS MORE


seems more than enough for your fastroad stage 4 cossie ,


i would have to leave the mapping to someone who knows what they are doing mate lol

The mapper is more important than the ecu so choose wisely.

defo get it mapped by someone who knows omex and cossies.

I wasnt too impressed with the mapper on mine as could hear it det standing over 10ft away on the rollers I had more fun mapping some of the fuel table out myself from the base map we put on to get the car started and going and it never detted then as was far too rich all over rev range.

Ive still Omex 600 sitting here which will eventually make it on the cossie and also my 24v boa

Not if the ecu does not have enough inputs or outputs, no matter how good the mapper is your not going to overcome that problem lol
