Motorsport products should be quick and intuitive to use, so that the job can be done and dealt with and you can get on with the next job. There is never enough time, so why waste any?
Yes, you are completely right. We had to leave our first (and just one in this season) competition because your car has not ready...

Magneti Marelli Checkstar from Poland are sponsor of our team Silesia Automotive so we had easier to contact with some guys in Motorsport Department.
Marco from Motorsport department in Magneti made a big work to help us.
In fact MM have a lot of maps, layouts and documentation for configure all of systems but will fine if you know italian language... For example MM have not manual for SRA or STR ECU in english. Happily our faculty advisor know italian language (and his's guy who never give up), so contact with Magneti was quite easy.
Maybe sould I try to suggest MM Motorsport to visit forum like this?
When you have all of materials for MDU, SRT, Turbo function, CAN configuration etc. work with MM is very good (ofcourse if you are open minded - for example on fueling unit - microliters per tooth (he he) )
The main problem is, that you don't get them with device.

I'm so interesting about DDU
