I just ordered the Haltech R3. The big difference between it and other ECU's is that is has a power distribution unit built in. I won't need any extra relays, at least that's the plan. But it comes with a big price - about double what your looking, $2500, with the wiring harness. It's way more than I need but I'm an EE so having electrical gadgets to tinker with is never a bad thing.
I use the Emu Black - works well. It's the first conversion to efi I did my myself. Using a rough map for first run, provided by the local distributor here in Aus, the car ran REALLY well. I was surprised. Of course, additional tuning and it's running even better.

Can't go wrong with the haltech tho. Pls report back how it works for you.
