Add Haltech Sub-Forum?
Can we get a headcount of the users on Haltech? Maybe convince the mods to add a Haltech sub-forum for support?
Comment on this thread which ECU you have.
In the meantime if you're having any issues, go ahead and PM me. I'd love to help!
Mods, this is not intended to be an advertisement. I would simply like to help anyone I can. Haltech's #1 priority is customer support.

We support all BP engines if you're willing to tackle a custom wire-in job. We also support the NC engine and almost any engine swap you might want to throw at these little cars.
Poscat for you sir. That is a great mounting location. Airbags? Who needs air bags? We die like real men.

If I had a local guinea pig car I could keep for a couple weeks it would aid in that process...

I thought so as well, first I had my gauges there. Realized the OEM harness is super long and just curled up. It passes through and over the trans tunnel pretty easily after taping the connectors together.

I am a Haltech user as well. Running a Platinum 500 ECU. Getting ready to junk it though in favor of a MS3 PNP. The 500 lacks a lot of features but a Haltech specific sub forum would be nice. I have had good results with my basic 500 ECU and would like to be able to help out others as well.
My 500 will be for sale soon too with a Boomslang adapter if anyone is interested.

The Elite ECUs are comparable to the MS3 systems depending on which tier you get. The Platinum series are getting a little dated. The 500 ecu I run now doesn't have knock control, auto tune, or A/C control. It is universal however. I ran the same ECU on my Starion and when I bought the Miata, I simply added a VTPS and uploaded a basemap which came with the ECU Manager software. I did need to connect the fuel pump wires at the AFM switch to allow the pump to come on as well as run a GM IAT sensor.
Install time was about 30 minutes. I didnt have to remove the fuse that normally is removed for MS systems. When I converted to Toyota COP I needed to run a MSD 8910 tach adapter connected to the IGN- and B+ of the diagnostic box for the tach to work. The tach worked fine with stock coils.

I think the Haltech Elite Series will prove to be superior to the MS3 as far as build quality and appears to offer more. Haltech USA has also answered the phone every single time immediately, helping me over the phone. Awesome customer service. The Elite software is pretty damn user friendly for a noob like me and you get a huge full wiring diagram, that if you make changes to the ecu, you are able to print a new wiring diagram directly from the ecu itself . As I see it, I found the price difference to be a no brainer between MS3/pro and the Elite 1500. Just look at the ECU case it's self. Water proof, high impact, molded, military grade looking. Then look at a MS3pro, and it houses the same type of multi piece not weather proof aluminum box, like a DIY MS. Not very impressive IMO.
