I have the VM1000 with the EC100 and it's been working great.  Recently
though I did need to replace the fuel pressure sensor and the oil
temperature sensor.  Both parts were readily available and shipped very
quickly.  The fuel xducer was a little pricey I thought at about $245, but
the oil temp was only $115.

that's my experience with it.
