well the distibutor system is not suitable for 30 psi boost for 500hp and to make the L8 run wasted spark costs £300 in bits and pieces and you still have a coil pack set up with HT leads which isn't as good as COPs. most modern ecu's can run COP's such as yaris ones directly and as regards the cost of mapping - you have that irrespective of what ecu you have. no brainer if you ask me at that power level.
