    The AEM system is the most reliable in my experience.

    I believe AEM got the control of the sensor heater spot on.

    I have my system for 4 years now and it works in the snow or sunshine. Highly recomended an AEM system.

    Cheers Eddie, if it were you would you have a preference between Aem 30-4110 and 30-0300 X both seem to use the bosch 4.9 lsu sensor

    Zeitronix ZT-2 for me, bullet proof!.

    Had mine 13+ years now and still going strong!.

    Choice of round or oblong display and can log fuel pressure with an additional sensor (VERY handy to plot fuel vs manifold pressure!).

    I imported mine direct from USA but they have a UK distributer now.

    They do a ZT-3 which is cheaper but less functionality, more just a display..

    Will be ordering another ZT-2 as the one in the Golf is now in my Mitsubishi GTO-TT!.

    The oblong displays are made out of aluminium, really well made and finished.

    Always had a soft spot for GTO's it was my go to tuned car in Gran Turismo especially with 1000hp :p. Shame they ruined GT2 so you couldn't tune the gears in the same granular way.

    We've had a long history, done 5 clutch changes on the drive (drag racing related!).

    Currently it's running twin fuel pumps, full stainless braided teflon fuel lines, twin feed billet fuel rails, Sytec FPR, Bosch EV14 1000cc injectors, GM blow through Maf, Forge wastegate actuators and MBC, hybrid TD04 16g turbos, bespoke FMIC kit, Emanage Ultimate (excellent bit of kit!), soilid diff and engine mounts, HKS igniton amplifier with upgraded coil wiring. Zetronix ZT-2 wideband with fuel pressure logging (egt on the cards)

    Got that fed up frying clutches I fitted an OS Giken R3C tripple plate ceramic clutch which is a swine in traffic.

    I managed to blow the oringal engine to smithereens on Nitrous but the next one fitted was the later 4 bolt main bearing carrier so ever cloud has a silver lining!.

    Runs 2 bar boost, M20 fuel (20% methanol for better ignition timing).

    It's on matt black Advan tripple spokes now (old school!).

    Also fitted a progammable ECU for the ECS (electronic contolled suspension).
