if its cheap get it, get bigger fuel system, turbo kit and make some big power, make sure loom is done properly or u will run into big problems

I had one on my basic set up and it seemed to work pretty good. However after a new build to make some more power there was troubles witht the timing fluctuating so I got a vipec put in. But if its cheap why not try it, if you dont like it you can always move it on. Goodluck

It doesn't really help the guy make a decision. My experience with the Lt-10s was great. I had a basic set up and it was perfect. The only issue I ever had with it was the cold start but I paid 2k for my microtech and ignition set up including loom and it was a bargain. Beats paying huge dollars for a Vi-Pec or Motec unless you are spending big on the rest of your set up. Aren't Maatouks still using Microtechs on their insane cars?

They are fine but....to keep sending the things back for bigger map sensors or other things is costly, the ****ers are rip offs for that.(everyone else is $150ish, they are $400ish. So if you get one, especially new, make sure you get the upgraded map sensor that you will ultimately need They can be hard to start aswell(not that hard though), from memory the reaon they are hard to start they need to sping over a few times to pick up the crank angle sensor(well thats what it feels like),but yeh it ****ted me a bit of. I am going to get rid of the crank angle sensor and run acrank trigger like everyone does with Autronic setups, i think/hope this will fix it. cheers darren

my lt10 has been great. i had a bigger map sensor installed from new, not that i have needed it (im still only running 17psi). even on long drives i still get decent fuel economy.
