Specifications
Part Details:
Once a build outgrows the factory ECU, the Haltech Nexus S3 is a standalone that takes over fuel, ignition, boost, drive by wire and even automatic transmission control from one box. Haltech built it as the successor to the Elite 2500, keeping everything that platform did and adding an onboard wideband controller, Wi-Fi, dual drive by wire and far more logging capacity on the faster Nexus processor. It suits engines with up to 8 cylinders or up to 4 rotors, in racing applications where advanced race features and data logging are needed.
The Nexus S3 is tuned with Haltech’s NSP software over USB-C or Wi-Fi, works with the Haltech Connect app, and connects to Haltech dashes and expansion devices over two CAN ports. Haltech products are sold for off-road and competition use only and are not legal for use on public roads in emissions controlled vehicles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Nexus S3 the replacement for the Elite 2500?
Yes. Haltech developed the Nexus S3 as the successor to the Elite 2500, with all of its functions plus an onboard wideband, Wi-Fi, dual drive by wire and much larger onboard logging.
Do I need a separate wideband controller?
No. The Nexus S3 has an onboard wideband controller that supports both NTK and Bosch LSU 4.9 sensors. The sensor itself is sold separately.
Will the Nexus S3 plug straight into my car?
It’s a universal ECU, so it gets wired in with a universal harness, a terminated engine harness, or a plug and play option where Haltech offers one for that chassis.
Is the Nexus S3 street legal?
No. Haltech sells its products for off-road and competition vehicles only.
