I have come across a few different names of programmable ECU kits and I'm wondering what all of your experiences are?

The type I'd want are the ones that will do 4cyl, electronic ignition (crank sensor), and obviously injection.

The very best bang for buck at the bottom end of the price scale is an MS2/3 ECU from www.boostmonkeys.co.uk

Had a look at that website. Is it not just mega squirt then? Is mega squirt any good?

That depends....how good do you need it to be ?

You're requirements were as basic as any would ever be, and it will easily do that task.

Had and MS2 they are ok but sometimes need to be altered for use on fords, unless you buy it setup.
I have now spent the extra on an Emerald K6, Well worth the extra

I'm thinking of building a zetec turbo. Can I map in anti lag with mega squirt? Or emerald for that matter?

I'm on Adaptronics on my zetec turbo...

Run it on my impreza type r too, was a far better job than the Gems ecu it run when I bought it...

Yes it's Mega Squirt mate, but built by pick and place robots and then conformal coated rather than hand soldered by a hobbyist in a shed! lol
MS3 for example will do everything any of the more expensive alternatives can do.
It's more about how well a car is mapped these days rather than what's the 'best' management, as I always say choose your tuner and go with what they recommend as they will be the ones using it.

Thanks very much for the info. Do you know if anti lag is mappable with one of these then? I assume it is as basically it just over fuels and retards on the overrun (am I right? Ish?)
