Aftermarket EFI systems question

MoTeC make an ECU that will except wide band Lambda sensors and adjust the
fuel map as required.  A very user freindly system and very user
configureable. Has great data logging for lambda mixture so you can really
get good real live tuning data.  I have had exceptional results with a
methanol engine using this ECU.
