[QUOTE="letsgetthisdone, post: 1546971, member: 32303"] Between all the ranting of why you shouldn't run what setup, there's still this. A lot of engine management supports the ford crank trigger system (36-1 crank, with cam triggers), so it would be easy to setup by any competent tuner on the ECU you're using- haltech, motec, Emtron, even AEM Inifinity IIRC, etc. The 6.2 may have 16 plugs, but it has 8 coils, so the ignition isnt really tricky. All three ECU's mentioned also support DBW or cable throttle, so that is easy as well. Retaining an OEM ECU in a race only vehicle is simply silly. The computing power/speed, tuning features, safety features, and datalogging capabilities of a good stand alone leave any factory ECU looking like a mid 90's cell phone. There may be minimal support, but there is enough. Heads/cams and the 6.6 rotating assembly from livernois + twin turbos would absolutely rip. There is not such thing as the cheap route when build a TT v8 if you want it to truly live under stress. Especially since I'm guessing you want to make over 1000hp. Anything at that level basically require the same parts/level of build up. [/QUOTE]
