standalone on a 280 zx turbo

I am running a highly modified 280 zx Turbo engine, but want even more power. Which stand alone system should I be looking at and at what price? Any experiences?

Pricewise, I like the SDS system, and for value, its probably my best pick from what I've heard. Haltech E-6 is also a good choice IMHO, but I dunno if it can be used for your specific engine application (L28t?)

I've got a TEC3 standalone on mine and I'd recommend this system to anyone.

For price and ease of tuning for even the novice tuner, I would say the SDS as well. Unless you're willing to pay top tuning $$$s for the laptop assisted units, I would be leaning more towards something like the SDS efi system or the microtech systems which are pretty good as well. I'm a user of the SDS for both of CA18DET powered sentras and I would say that that's the best $2600 (between the 2 systems) that I've ever spent. Car runs like a champ, idles like factory, fast idles when the A/C is engaged and all installed by myself. Just as simple as it's name SDS= Simple Digital System.

i will be using an Autronic SMC (ver 1.99) on my b13 once i finish terminating the harness......they have excellent tech/customer support i have some pics of an autronic unit on a 240z with a L28 and a T3/T4 somewhere......

www.autronic.com

a friend of mine built a megasquirt for our senior design project (prerunner/desert race truck) it came together pretty nicely......on base map generated by inputting the basics, it idles 72lb injectors perfectly starts up everytime.....barely have to crank the ignition
