yeah but driveability issues with microtech but if you get a good tuner all would be good.

Just not as driveable as a stock ecu or one with more features! a microtech has to be tuned properly to run properly...

Cold start feature is a big one

I would be very suprised if thats a STI turbo, looks very stock to me.
Looks to be a thrifty build looking at the components and stereo etc
it may have some reliability issues.

I'd be agreeing with Mal there.. there's no evidence to suggest that the thing even has an intercooler, let alone some fancy plumbing to go with it.. There's a nice big vacant spot of engine bay area where the factory air filter box used to be..

STI turbo indeed :oops:

I know what ya mean there. When i looked around to buy a computer for FNZOOM i looked at many brands but chose the Microtech due to price and reputation. If u look at the cars runnin the times the majority of them are using the Microtech.

The first guy who tuned my car was so crap at tuning them that i reckon he couldnt tune a VCR! The car went like **** and wouldnt idle properly and was a pig to drive. I went to QLD with the car and had a decent tuner play with the thing and it drives like magic. Couldnt be happier. It all comes down to the tune and not the brand.
