Really all of them in the $1000-1500 price bracket do more or less the same function, fuel and ignition and one or two auxilary functions. It's not like the old days where Microtech had screw driver adjustments and Haltech need a laptop, EMS had a fancy handset... It was these models which set people opinions in todays market. I will admit microtech models up to the digi 2 always had issues giving a some what mixed reaction and everyone complained about never holding tune, that's probably because they only needed to run right for 10-20sec for 1/4 runs! and this was there main market segment, not modified daily drivers.... Also I don't hear much about Motech, who also started out with a simliar design to Mircotech, that's right, adjustments by a screwdriver! These models also suffered the same problems too, but these were around well before Haltech and mircotech etc (1987). It's not til you go the next level that things change. At this level, Really Microtech LTX8, EMS stinger and Haltech's E6x perform great. Autronic, well just the Basic SMC will work fine, but there are additional options that will need to be added internally depending on application ie A dwell board, certain specific sensor such as Oxy etc will need to be purchased, So you need to check if each unit will run factory sensor's or will you need to buy ones to suit. ie EMS stinger can use some factory sensors, but sometimes none at all. I will admit I'm not up to date with the current Haltech's,(though I itching to try one of those interceptors on the ford) The E6K I had in one of my earlier cars I had to change every sensor over! Sorry that's was more cash I really didn't want to spend and another car we had ran a mircotech and I didn't have to buy or change a thing, ran the factory stuff straight from the box. Both ran fine til I sold them. Currenly we run an Autronic SMC,which was cheap at the time->$1100 fitted an tuned but the guy went broke doin it for this! Runs great too with little hassles. The new car currenly being built runs a Motech M400.. We only chose the motech this time because of it's additional Datalogging capabilities when compare to everything else, otherwise any of the above would do the job!

which management is better for a 2jzgte
Ive been told a haltech and been told a microtech?
Microtechs ive been told are easier to wire up but my mate uses one and want something different
any other managements i should consider
Anyone with prices

Spend a day on the phone and chat to the seller's, All will do the same and will run this engine... I know from experince these seller's will tell you different stories on why the one they're selling is better... don't listen to them as there just trying to make a sale. Lay out all the facts then make the choice on what suit you in the way of Time, money and options etc and you won't go wrong.
