What incorrect assumption or misinformation -- psychological?

Tuning a Lotus with EFI, Motec, and/or Autronics is not rocket science. My colleague has done a few 2ZZs before so may I/we comment?

One interesting thing about EFI is that it has a picture of the PTG 4-door that is now owned by my friend. What is the interesting thing? PTG dumped EFI due to performance issues in favor of Motec. However, the picture stayed.

Here's my question(s): Does EFI market their ecu as street legal in the USA? Or, is using an EFI legal for the overwhelming vast majority of Lotus owners? (No, I don't work for the EFI legal department!)
Go have fun "with yourself" somewhere else.
