Full real time tuning directly into the unit itself is my preference. So this includes, AEM, HALTECH, MOTEC. Power FC is also semi-capable of this. You just need the FC data logit (which i Prefer to the PFC software personally). You can map watch in real time and then after a pull look at RPM and AFR and go back through and fine tune every single individual cell.

IN real time with FC data logit, you just do map watch, adjust a cell and hit "WRITE" and it writes instantly, same as real time also.

The Tomei Reytech is also a good unit that I never head anyone talk about, although the resolution of the map is not amazing the unit itself is very easy and quick to tune, especially if you are using nissan based equipment, high impedence injectors, and mostly factory gear, but the plus is it operates as a map based system.

If you have to get a map base system and dont want a Haltech or AEM, I suggest the Tomei unit (if they still sell which I think they do). Otherwise stick to the tried and true Power FC L Jetro. Unit is great, really affordable and good soultions for builds with power as high at 500-550 WHP
Thanks for taking some time out of your schedule to answer my question My KA24DE was recently rebuilt to get ready for boost. Here's what I got done...

Bottom end:

Bored .020 over and honed
Clevite Main and Rod Bearings
AMS Sportsman Series Rods
Arias 8.8:1 pistons
ARP Main Studs
ARP 10mm Head Studs
Balanced whole rotating assembly

Head:
5 angle job
Brian Crower Stage 2 Cams
Supertech INCONEL Exhaust Valves - 0.7mm oversize
Supertech Intake Valves - 0.5mm oversize
OEM timing rebuild kit & using original cam sprockets
1.5mm Cometic HG - due to resurfacing

Once the time comes and I'm finished builing the car, will I need adjustable cam sprockets for dyno tuning? Let's pretend I do...will a dyno shop go through the trouble of taking a valve cover off and adjust the sprockets as needed or will I have to make seperate trips with the car and do it myself before arriving at the shop?

Thanks again in advance for any input bud.

Kamil
