    Out with the old and in with the new! It's been a long time since we've had Benny's Cresta at Haltech so we were super excited to see it roll in a couple of weeks ago. The car has undergone massive changes since our last feature over 5 years ago, and the time finally came to upgrade the old relay/fuse set up with a brand new PD16.

Or at least I think it helped a lot of you guys start your own channels and create so much great content for all of us to be part of.

    Considering how many cars are being electronically written off with no supply of obsolete parts, this unit seems like a solution to reducing automotive waste on a grand scale.
    Would be good seeing a similar video of this unit being used to control regular BCM functions like HVAC control, windows, audio, lighting as well.
    Maybe via a floor layout of parts? A simulation or via a series of graphics?
    A great bit of equipment for sure.

    The NSP software really needs to be updated to match what your competitors are able to do.
    Why can’t I use the same keypad input for two outputs without having to hack a rotary trim output. E.g. if I have 2 thermofans and I want to run them at 100% after a race I can’t do it with 1 button. Same with the wipers, fuel pumps etc
    You have introduced shock pots in the software but they aren’t available on the v2.35 CAN protocol.
    Why are the number of Generic Inputs and Outputs limited for Elite ECU products? This limits the number of potential circuits able to be run from the PDM. I assume it’s due to the lower processing power but I could switch on every single sensor in the software and it would still run. Why not just have 10 extra generic inputs and outputs that are only available if they will actually impact the processor with the current sensor selection. Surely there is processing power not being utilised because it is allocated to sensors that aren’t used.
    The Haltech forums have been offline for days. Is there any plans to fix this?

      Most UA-cam channels load a couple of different thumbs when making a video live and let the algorithm decide which one works better. It takes a couple of days for it to settle on the one that's getting more clicks. It's unusual that you'd get served a different thumb if you've already watched the video though, but it's something we can't really control.
