idk man, we had a huge problem with what mazda did form the factory. They made nasty fuel and boost cuts happen during akward situations, which would cause you to blow your motor. They ****ing put in a throttle plate, a metal plate would close as the rpms went up.
Upgraded injectors were a 1000 bucks, on top of the 400 upgrade to your stock fuel pump.
Its all a wash!!! bah

This is not a tuner platform. DI is good tech for most drivers, but yes, until the aftermarket can find ways to cheaply produce better/bigger injectors and fuel pumps for DI applications, it will not be a stellar choice for tuners. You'll notice the Hyundai Genesis coupe does not have DI but the Sonata does. Maybe they were looking out for the tuners.

Oh, really? I haven't been keeping up with the car as I'm not interested in owning one. I had no idea they were having trouble with the ECU. I let all my tuner magazine subscriptions lapse, so I don't know what the new "it" car is, but I kind of get the impression the Gen coupe isn't making the big splash I thought it would. So either the ECU is the hold up or the demand just isn't there. Because I thought Nissan bragged a bunch about their ECU being tough, but with so many people trying so hard to crack it, it was bound to happen one day.
