If the software to control an ECU (paid for or free) to get into an ECU is not available (to the public I mean) then I think its a dead duck  I would hate to be at the mercy of someone/company to alter/tune any ECU I wanted to use

Well guys, if you want to keep your car pretty standard looking but would like a better set up come and speak to Mark Adams. If you don't mind junking the lucas system, go mega squirt.
Simples!!
Either way though get somebody that knows what they are doing to set the thing up, it makes the world of difference.
