Al Wick has a Soob-Cozy and swears by the stock ECU ... twenty MILLION automobiles having gone before him and tested out his ECU ... but he did a LOT of research to root out all of those little "undocumented features" and tying them off before he flew. Trouble is IMO that you haven't a lot of reliable documentation and it's difficult to be truly sure you've got them all neutralized.
I'd have to go with Tracy's unit ... Jim S.

You are right Finn !! Terry Adams (one of the first to fly a 13B) used the stock RX7
ECU.......He had to put it down rather roughly when the ECU shut down after sensing
a overheat (coolent I think).......Jump in here Terry if you are lurking.......Terry researched
the ECU software and later disabled this feature.......I do not know if the ECU shut down
the ignition or cut the fuel.......FWIW

Dale you have got to be kidding?!
I think a brief survey will show that the vast majority is flying
Tracy's EC.
Doesn't the car EC shut down the engine if it doesn't like what it
senses?
Not a good thing in the air!

Paul,
You've just made a very good case for going back to the
stock ECM. How many aircraft are _flying_ on the MicroTech
controller? How many are flying on Tracy's controller?
