Does anybody know which ECU would be best for a set of Jenvey 45's, e.g. omex or emerald e.t.c and what model?

Find out what your mapper is most familar with, that's the best to go with.
Barring that, DTA S40

DTA is probably one of the most commonly used with ITB's etc. From what im told it can be one of the 'easier' ones to map.

Emerald without a doubt, It's more configurable, Has a USB port now too & Loads of people can map them..
The Omex which I run in my car cannot run the coil pack's fitted to the 6 so a normal type of pack must be used which is a pain.

Dta are certainly not cheap and nasty. I know several people using them including myself and they're highly rated. They're also uk based and are incredibly helpful over the phone. I highly recommend them Thumbs up

Sounds like you already made up your mind, most people on here ignore Phillip m on here anyway, it's not like he knows anything about engines Dry LOL

They all do pretty much the same thing, I'm on Omex and have had no problems other than having to go for a wasted spark coil pack at £60 plus leads.
Get whatever your mapper of choice is most comfortable working with, if he does'nt know the interfaces well he will take a lot longer to map it and it will cost more as it will just be time added on the bill, or he will refuse outright to touch it if he can't be bothered to learn a new system. Emerald, Omex or DTA will do just fine, check out the prices and ring around your mappers.

There's 4 cups pushed up and down by 4 spoons attached to a big hand whisk, cold air comes in the top, and the cups run away from it 'cause they want to stay warm, and it turns the whisk to power your car Yes
