check out www.Greddy.com or www.trust-power.com and see if your engine is listed, they have one of the best Engine management out there...

for series 4 , microtech has a decent line from the lt8 upwards
and the haltech E6x, depends on what you wanna do with your car though. Tuning Rotaries not as forgiving in errors as tuning pistons, so best advice, put pen to paper and write what you want to do and go form there

all these systems are great but of all i know the most used with rotaries is microtech....but what i want to know is if there is anyone using a particular system with a rotary engine and can provide some info personally....i.e....how relaible, useful, suitable, etc....as well as who locally can tune the recommended system..

I had a series 5 engine with a haltech e6x, no problems and was user friendly
Most of the rotories that i know are running haltech and there are no complaints

you could have the best EMS, like an autronic SM4 @ nearly 14K $TT, and if you dont have a GOOD tuner or the necessary supporting mods to utilise the full capabilities of the EMS, you could be in REAL sh!t...

Haltech, Microtech, Autronic, Motec, all of these big brand and expensive systems, basically haev the same functions, with minor detail differences...
like Mini Charles said, know what you want first, before you spend money unnecessarily, if your going with water/alcohol injection adn nitrous, get an ems that caters for these and can control them adequately for your application; dont go buying expensive E6X or SM2 if you just wanna get some nice useable street power for your beast, thats overkill imo...you could get an Apex'i power fc, which is still reasonable for its functions and does very well with rotaries,
the older Haltech E6K works well also.
ever thought about a reflash as well? i'm sure there are many companies that have the cables and software necessary to reflash (most of the time they also enable speed/rev cut removal and full functions of a standalone ecu) like the EvoScan for evos/subies etc.

Dry, Raymond (bajan), Prentice, Anil (puff n stuff builder), Ready are all good tuners.

good luck and keep us posted man.. 8)
