Steve,

How about an address and phone number for the folks at
Haltech.  As an owner of a FI TR-8, I'm concerned about future
availability of the electronic control unit (ecu).  I'm
also in contact with other TR-8 owners and based on information
from one supplier (Eight Parts in Tucson, AZ) the ECU is no
longer manufactured.  I'd like to talk to the folks at Haltech
to investigate availablity or use of one of their units as a
replacement.

Thanks,
Bill Sohl
