LT8S should cover it.
Does the 3T-GTEU just use a single channel ignitor and the dizzy distributes the spark?
Are you converting to coil pack?
Do the plugs fire as pairs? or leading/trailing?

There you go.
LT8S, set up like any 4cyl with same firing order and one ignitor channel.

You'd be silly to convert a motor to aftermarket ecu and not convert it to ignition control.

Microtech LTX8 is the way to go. Gives you the flexibilty of using stock coils and dizzy or aftermarket coils and crnak angle sensor.

I have a 2T-GEU and used a Microtech MTX8 for a 4AGE 20 valve, I modified a 20V Crank angle sensor for signal for the Microtech and used multicoil setup in wasted spark configuration using 2 VN series 2 coil packs controlled by the Microtech.
In your case you could use the the 4 coil outputs to run 4 commodore coils to fire 2 plugs per cylinder.
but you will have to modify the dizzy the way i have or use a toothed wheel on the crank for signal.

OK so thgere are obviously a couple of options:
LTX8
MTX8
MT4
LT4
LT8S
Sorry guys I have no idea about any of this stuff,I dont want to go to the trouble just yet, of changing to different coils or spark sequence all i want is to run a high flowed CT20 on 12psi and have a nice power delivery/drivability..
thanks

Its LT8S now for the new one.
Don't bother with the LT4 series as for an extra $300 you'll get full ignition control.
For another $100 you'll get 2 extra outputs too (not sure if you'll use them)
DO NOT get an MT series stuff.
Order it for what you want, and build the motor up for that.
Don't order it for what you have, because it will cost you extra to get it converted in the future.
ie, if you want coilpacks, order it with coilpacks now, and convert the car to coil pack. It you order it for dizzy, then convert it to coilpack later, it will cost you $80 to get it reprogrammed.
To reinterate, LT8S
