I have directed two subaruvanagon listees to Link Electrosystem's engine
management computers. This renders all the Subaru electronics (apart from
the ignitor) irrelevant. The complete system is about $357US plus shipping.
For about $100US you can get a dash-mounted remote unit with LCD readout;
with this you can alter your settings on the move. Contact the South Island
distributor:

Neville is a Subaru expert and will be (eventually) doing my SVX conversion.
