The best engine managment out there for the Z besides a $7000 MOTEC is the HKS F-CON. HKS locks their ECU. HKS dealers are the only one with the key.
I used to run the UTEC, but it isn't a perfect solution especially if you are making more than 500whp. The idle with the UTEC is horrible. The resolution is poor and has to interpolate temperature.
The FCO nis ,uch more capable and is a standaloen and removes the OEM computer from all ignition and fuel control. The UTEC only switches on after it senses boost.
yeah I thought the utec was a piggyback, and I'm no fan of piggybacks, I know the Z33 is drive by wire and has variable valve timing but otherwise it's the same as any engine, and the variable valve timing is an easy work around with a window switch, I know greedy has a system compatible with the VQ, but any system with wideband capable and has datalogging makes for quick and easy fuel tuning, timing requires a dyno to get perfect but once the fuel is done it doesn't take much dyno time to get the timing worked out, me I <3 megasquirt but as far as I knwo no one has written code for drive by wire, but it's open source code so it's only a matter of time
