we had exactly the same problem with Autronic ECU in the end we cut the trigger wheel down from a 3 lug to a 1 lug which solved our problems. I believe you have to do the same to put Autronics on a GTO (GT3000) as well.

Richard, do you have any pics of how you did this? Did you use the GTO triggerwheel or did you replace it with something else? Is the FTO and the VR4 using the same engine?
EDIT: Looked on your website, lots of usefull info there!

my FTO has a VR4 engine, (the FTO engine is very similar) we used the VR4 triggerwheel, unfortunatley I dont have any pictures of it, but if you look at the triggerwheel you see what I mean it has 3 big lugs on it, we chopped those off and set the timing up using the one remaining lug.
