M1 series or M880 ECU for Mazda Rotary?

Hi all, wondering if you can give me a steer on the following.

I will be looking to purchase a number of MoTeC products in the next week or so for my Mazda RX-7 (running a 13B Turbo). From what I have understood so far the M880 ECU would still be the right ECU for me to purchase and not an M1 series. I want to run the motorsport connectors.

Looking to run:
ECU to run 13B - and possibly 4rotor in the future
Initially a synchro gearbox, moving to a Holinger sequential in the future (i.e. moving to paddle shift)
C127 dash
Traction Control (4 x wheel speed sensors)
Fly by wire throttle body
PDMs for entire car
Lambda / EGT etc.

As I'm making the purchase soon, I just wanted to know if it would be the right thing to do sticking with the M880? or would there be a better unit given that there are some options with the paddle shift set-up on the M1 series etc.

Many thanks in advance,
Glenn

I may have answered my own question, had a further read around the main site, appears as though this unit would be the right one?

GPRP-M190

However, is there anything I need to consider with this unit? things it will do / won't do?

Thanks.

Hi,

At this stage we do not have native support for rotary engines in the M1 systems, It is possible to run a rotary with the M1, but some functions like secondary injection do not work when you do this.

Thanks Stephen.

The M880 will still handle the drive by wire and paddle shift kit correct?

Cheers,
Glenn
