Default Electromotive TEC 3

I'm wondering if anyone is running this setup or if they'd like to share any info about it.

Thanks
Ben

electromotive is awesome..... you will be ruining a distributorless setup with the tec wich is bad *** and it has great tuning capabilities... ust a bit $$$$

It looks tempting, but you have to add so much to the $1850 price of the base unit-sensors, harnesses, coil paks, trigger wheel, etc...it ends up being more like $2400 which is $800 more than a Hondata w/an MSD Digital 6+.

if not go for a haltech e6k, great standalone and you dont need to go distributorless... usually see them on ebay for like 1100 wiht sensors..

yeah that seems pretty low for a motec.me personally i just received my tec-2 the other day,but i;m still about a month from installing it.i love the lack of distributor.plus they took my stock pulley and machined the tooth marks right into it.i didn;t have to get a seperate trigger wheel.

that h22 civic in the sdsefi is a local..... go to their site and start adding up extra sensors and stuff then you will see that it gets close to the other stand alone prices
here is my friends old setup: (these are old pics the car has been sitting at john brown's garage and we have been wanting to pick it up and bring it to our shop but he will not answer his phone) we might bring it back and start racin it again

your bro has a saturn, go chek it out and ask him.... in order to run a distrbutorless honda you gotta have settings for it on your stand alone and like hte tec2 and haltech's whenever you go distributorless it will be waste spark.. you also have to get extra components, look here on electomotive's website http://www.electromotive-inc.com/products/hpx.html
and that civic in the picture above was runing a haltech stanalone system...

the waste spark is because 1 coil pack on the tec2 powers 2 plugs so when the coil fires it sparks on the compression stroke and a plug on the exhaust storke, when its fired on the exhaust its called waste spark and it has no effect on the engine.
