    Reliability

    Not only that Stan but German reliability. The Suzuki makes crap idle oil psi. My BMW has a nice lumpy idle and 35-40 psi at 240 degrees oil temp. Shift at 14k all day too and it sounds amazing! :D

    Yes that's idle pressure. 55-75 on track.

    Stock ecu is a very stupid rule for FB. The cost argument makes no sense. The Pi system in my car cost double what the Haltech ecu system did.
