Hi Andrew, What? You were in New England, and a list member and didn’t stop in to see me? Hey, VT is a beautiful place! I don’t find the web sites all that easy to use. So, What does this engine management consist of? Example what does it use for a AFM? Does it use a cam sensor and pull sensor like the GW version? Does it have on plug coil like the GW and come with a ECU? Does it still use some old parts like the Idle Air control valve? Does it have the ability to be upgraded or fixed with a computer upgrade? Can you connect a Scan gauge.? Is it a learning system? So very interesting. I just read something from another list I never thought I’d see. A person that removed a Jetta engine that was tired and replaced it with a GW 2.3 but with this engine management. Also just concluded a nice long trip. Thanks for the info and share more if you can.

Never had a single hiccup, hesitation, issue at all. It started up every time after a few cranks.
