Hi Don,

So your ECU just locks up and you can't do anything but send it in? Wow.

Here is my take on the DTA Pro8.

I think it is a fine reliable mid priced ECU. There are some things that I don't like about it.

The idle control isn't very good. It might be that I have a defective idle control valve . My idle is low when cold.

The lambda control is screwy. It just doesn't work very well. It wants to lean the motor out more than it should.

I think the DTA is a great ECU for racing where you don't idle much or need lambda control.

The interface with Windows SUCKS. DTA blames Microsoft. Really now.

I will try Autronic next time to see if it does any better than the DTA.

BTW, I have had one failure. My POS Electromotive crank sensor ***** the bed and I needed a tow. I am going to replace the sensor with a Ford unit so that doesn't happen again.

I have heard that FAST is on a lot of Hondas and V8s.

Good luck
Dean
