Haltech Support...anyone here have "connections"??, Long ramble............... Options

[Mueller]

No responses at all from the few e-mails I've sent directly to them.

..their Tech forum is pretty weak as well, supposedly it's moderated by a few Haltech people, but questions go unanswered for days or they don't get answered at all.

I understand that I am asking for stuff (manual and software) from a product no longer on the market...5 years old I think, but they could at least respond with a "piss off" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Luckily, I found their manual on-line for their latest ECU which is a more modern version of the unit I have. A few different versions of software are available as well from the same ECU family. I did get a response from someone on the 911 Rennlist site saying that he just started to try the different versions of software until one worked with the older ECU, so I guess that will be my next move.

My biggest challange is trying to find out what is different or lacking from the old E6 I have and the newest E6K box.

I guess I don't want to get too excited thinking the box I have can control certain functions or parameters when in fact it is too old to support those features...(I'm guessing my E6 will not support Motronic trigger wheels all that well due to high teeth count...the Ford trigger wheel might work since the resolution is half that of the Motronic)

Their manual is nice for the E6K, I read all 155 pages of it last night..(okay, I cheated and skimmed over the baro change maps since that is not a variable that I want to play with...they don't recommend it except for special cases)


The E6 controls fuel and ignition

If I read it right, the E6 will control fuel the following ways:
batch, multifire or sequential

and for for ignition,
it can control a locked down dizzy (some classes require that you keep a dizzy but can go all out otherwise for the fuel and ignition)
DIS or wasted spark,or COP which is coil on plug (which I am learning towards)

enough rambling...time to get some more reading done (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


Jon Watts, if you read this, Haltech does support Subaru triggering which seems different than the rest (cam angle and cam speed)
