hi guys, today me and ALN just installed our greddy emanage ultimate on our car. we already done research before for AEM, Hondata,Greddy, etc and we can said that this is the best for our situation and our car (This is only our opinion). Here is the current mods we got which are related to power result:

My car (2005 Auto Euro Luxury):
Greddy emanage ultimate with plug and play harness
Skunk2 Racing catback
Comptech header
No high flow cat (if i put high flow cat on my car, you can hear my car from 2 blocks away before you see the car coming:p:p)
Injen CAI
Unortodox racing pulley set
Red line oil
NGK Iridium EX spark plug
Mugen radiator cap
Mugen oil cap
Rims:Amistad Rotino SP2 (Japan) 19 inch
(Weight:approx 12 kg/wheels)

ALN's car (2003/2004 Manual euro):
Greddy emanage ultimate with plug and play harness
Fujitsubo catback
Comptech header
High flow cat
64mm TB
Clutch and Flywheels
Comptech ice box
Unortodox racing pulley set
Red line oil
NGK iridium EX spark plug
Mugen radiator cap
Mugen oil cap
Mugen Thermostat
Rims:SSR (Japan) 19 inch
(Weight:??? slightly lighter than mine)
Phase Euro carbon bonnet which is lighter than my stock one
Recaro seat which is lighter than my leather seat

I cannot post the dyno graph since my PC has a bit problem with virus.These are the current result from the dyno machine:

My car before tuned got around 103.? kw and after 114.4 kw.
ALN's car before tuned got around 114.? kw and after 125.7 kw.

I can say that the result on the dyno graph read very low.Then the tuner itself said to me that dont refer to the number on our dyno machine.he said that the machine read very low.and i am not sure whether they use the green big blower fan when we dyno our car.so it is not good for our air intake.no air coming in.

There is one EP3 Type R, he got 124.? kw and at autosalon he got 134.? kw.so the tuner said that approx we add more around 7-10kw on our dyno result.when we have time, we will dyno our car again.

In real life:
1st i drove ALN's car and it was amazing power result.more torque and more power at every range bottom,mid,top.even in my car i feel the same.

The tuner set our Vtec on 5500 rpm untill 7300 rpm. because he said that it is the best setup for our car.no point to put Vtec higher.when it hits the vtec, the power and the sound is very amazing.accelaration is damn very good:thumbsup::thumbsup: especially for my car because i already get used to drive my car, so i know the differences.

From the dyno graph at their computer there, i saw that there is an increase for power and torque at every range.The curve is very smooth and straight line keep going up.

A/T with Emanage ultimate advantages:
Unlike the other piggyback, Emanage Ultimate from what i know is the only piggyback that can set Shift Adj.Setting: this feature can be used to adjust the ignition timing to prevent knock during shift up and shift down which is very good feature for my car.

Overall i am so happy and i was surprise with the result in the real life (not on the dyno sheet:p).I can say that both manual and auto euro are great cars, lots of things you can do to improve ur perfomance and very fun to drive.but the auto and manual has different kind of fun for sure.and hopefully this can help all of you to make decision. i will post the graph when i fix my damn pc.

Thank you to Scoot and Chris from Chasers Motorsport for a great tuned for our car.

wow sounds impressive, i know what you mean when it comes to dyno's. I guess they're just for a rough idea. The real test is in the butt dyno!

nice work, congrats on your results.

and get that high flow cat on!!! 2blocks isnt thattttttt bad. haha!

My ear will be deaf in 1 week if i put high flow cat. But currently my exhaust sound is not that loud, not annoying at all, and sound good as well (especially when Vtec point:p).

I heard stories of dyno being run without the fan and the engine blew up.... the fan are there cause when you at that speed, there is air movement, but on a dyno, there non, thus the need for fans.

so the e-manage works with drive by wire?
and the harness is it bought from greddy? made for TSX or Euro accord?


and tron07, the fan´s have nothing to do with keeping engines from blowing up, they are there to give some sort of real driving simulation so you get a more accurate reading from the dyno.

if an engine blows up on the dyno then most likely it´s a tuned engine that´s either tuned badly or something has gone wrong.

Sounds like the greddy is a lot better than other tuning options. How much is the system to set up and tune?

i did not buy the wiring from greddy. i bought it from http://www.boomslang.us/

they make custom wiring for any car.you just need to tell them what kind of car you have and what ecu or piggyback you wanna use,what transmission, and they will make it for you.cause i dont want to damage my original wiring.

Greddy is :thumbsup:.it cost me around $500 to tune,dyno,and everthing.i pay a bit expensive because they have some problems about the wiring and need to do some research again.

23-11-2007, 12:15 PM
But how much to buy he unit and gear? Im guessing the $500 doesnt cover the unit itself. And can it control all the options as well as vtec, a/f, timing etc

The Greddy itself i get it from TSX parts for $685(shipped) and the wiring is $325 for auto and manual US$20 cheaper (shipped).yes it can control vtec and etc etc.but if you want the best result you are gonna need V-manage as well.but i think its not worth it to buy V-manage again.it depend you wanna use your car for daily driving or track use.if you wanna use for daily driving, Emanage Ultimate would be enough.

So basically $1000 AUD for the unit/wiring and $500 too tune. No bad. Not bad at all. Really flexible too by the sounds of it. And you have control of Vtec? Most other systems dont seem to be able to do that. You reckon its giving you about 15kw at the wheels eh?

If you combine between Emanage Ultimate and V-manage its a lot better.because from what i know if you use only emanage ultimate it cannot control your VTC.but yes you can control your vtec.like mine i dropped it untill 5500 rpm and can rev untill 7300 rpm.

From what the tuner said,it is a lot easier to play with the i-Vtec if you have V-manage as well.it doesnt mean Emanage ultimate cannot control the i-vtec, but if you have v-manage you will have some extra features again.you can control and put your vtec at 5000 rpm and rev untill 7800 rpm.but from my situation i didnt put like that because sometimes no point if you put to high or too low.depends from your mods.they will tune your car and see which one is the best.they looking for the very straight line graph keep going up.

For my car i am not expect to gain 15kw.but i would say i have gained around 7-10kw max 12 kw.btw i will dyno my car again when i have time with ALN.ALN's car he gain probably around 10-15kw.since his one is manual and have high flow cat.

That's impressive gains given you're comparing peak power.

I wonder what the largest gain at any point in the rev-range was?

Do you have a before tune dynograph and a after dune dynograph to overlay?

at this time i dont have the graph before tuned.i forgot to ask them to make a print out:p.the tuner said that there is an increase in top,mid, and bottom range before and after.but i have no idea which one the largest gain.i will dyno my car again on 8 December with Atjo.will let u guys know the result.

Nice figures on the E-Manage... Well done..

My car is in the workshop now for testing so it'll be nice to see what different setup on ECU and Interceptors churn out on the Euro...

But I'll be worried about running on a dyno without the fan... Not good...

Doesn't seem all that bad really. A Toda header offers less per $ and the same goes for every cat back exhaust and hi-flow cat you can buy. I would also be surprised if any of the Jtune packages could offer the $100 per kw figure in peak power.

Yep price wise it's not bad at all. The Jtune package is $4900 and the gain at the wheels is approx 30kw (peak) so the price is approx. $166 per/kw.

I already got my security team looking after my car hehe.

Tom, so are you saying that the v-manage will work better than e-manage ultimate on our cars?
This is really tempting. The euros ve been waiting for an engine management for ages. Get the most potential gain from the previous mods FTW:thumbsup:
e-manage ultimate here in Thailand seems to be a bit cheaper too.

hahaha!!we will buy lunch and dinner for your security.everybody say hello to you.am at atjo house now.everybody here.

Emanage ultimate is a lot better than V-manage.but it is a lot better again if you combine after emanage ultimate then u use V-manage again.so you will have some extra features.but you should use emanage ultimate 1st,not the v-manage.cause ALN already doing research as well so that is why we choose emanage ultimate.if you put v-manage again after emanage ultimate,from me and ALN opnion,it will not gain a lot power as you put emanage ultimate.it will give you some extra features only such as you can control VTC with V-manage.

but i would say,i am already happy with emanage ultimate only.u gonna feel a lot different.it is not worth it if you buy V-manage again since you use your car not for track purpose.you better try my car 1st by the time you go back here especially when Vtec come out:p.

24-11-2007, 08:22 PM
I did the same calculations for JTune to work out how much it will cost to upgrade my wife’s Euro and if its worth it.
Peak power per kw on JTune is (158kw vs 125kw) that’s $145 per kw
But mid range at 6000 power on the JTune package is (158kw vs 105) is only $90

At 5000 its (135kw vs 95kw) which is $120 per kw
Summary – I decided to order the JTune kit for my wife as when you consider the gains throughout the rev range its good value for money for a complete package compared to similar products.

for my personal opinion,i would say emanage ultimate and v-manage.From my opinion, Greddy is one of the best piggyback in the market at the moment.i think emanage ultimate only would be more than enough for daily driving.

Emanage Ultimate controls fuel, ignition and vtec. You need Vmanage for VTC. So use both if you want VTC control. There is no "which is better".

You would def need the dyno fan on in my opinion. If its just for show, then why is it even there? and why is it called DYNO fan?

When you run your car on the dyno there is no air flow going through the radiator to take away the heat generated. The dyno fan is meant to compensate for that so the temps can stay reasonable.

The car is not idling and in most cases is rev'ed to redline in several gears, several times. No sorry but that statment about the dyno fan being for show has to rank right up there as one of the most stupid ever.

That's 100% correct. The dyno fan is absolutely necessary to cool the car to avoid overheating it. Normally air flows at high speed to the radiator when it's in movement, but when the car is static there's no airflow at all so the fan has to do all the work. It's not just for decoration.

i agree with sodaz and 10KRPM.chasers, they are a great tuner:thumbsup:. they tune my car very well.

26-11-2007, 03:51 AM
Chasers, they are great tuner though,I'm not to sure what's the reason of not using the fan, but they have done some research of the car and before they even started to install the e-manage.

The dyno results might be quite low for my liking though, it might be caused by dyno itself, probably the fan and probably caused by the weather since it was closed to 30 degree C. However before and after tuned showed significant gains for my car 12 kw and tom's car to be around 10 kw.

E-manage is not better than stand alone unit however in value comparison, it is really worth it though even to be compared with hondata reflash since e-manage can be re-sold and it works well, no CEL to be appeared.

Anyway, I haven't got any review for the my car since I'm in overseas unfortunately, I left a day before the car finished the tuning. Lucky, Tom

you know the amount of heat generated when your car is rev to the max?

Ok we have all agreed that running without a dyno fan is not recommended, professional tuners should know better that the fan is there for a reason, especially the heat generated from the manifold when the car is on a dyno, a fan is also used to imitate airflow as well as cooling,yes, it definitely doesn't justify the car's true power, I too am at an absolute loss why it wasn't use...

On another note :), let's all end the dyno fan talk and stick to the E-Manage talk.

its to my understanding that based on the 2nd law of thermodynamics, having your engine temp run high will linearly reduce its overal efficiency. theres other factors that come into play too, like havin an enginer thats not hot enuf will also affect the combustion process or sumfin.

correct me ne1 if im wrong, thats wat i learnt but goin into detail about it is quite longggggg

What does entropy and equilibrium have to do with how efficient a hot engine runs? The 2nd law states that heat moves from high to low regions in order to increase entropy. If you have a cold block, heat from combustion is transferred into the block and therefore there is less energy to produce the expansion of the combustion gases, thus reducing efficiency when cold. Conversely, a hot engine means that heat flows at a lower rate into the block, thus giving better volumetric expansion. The reason why we don't want hot engines is because it warps and cracks.

hi this is chris from chasers. thanks for the positive feedback...

just wanted to clear up a couple of things. first the dyno fan. i cant understand why you are under the impression that we dont use a fan? the fan is used whenever a car is dynoed to keep the cooling system under control... its that simple. since it is a FWD car, the fan is at the back of the dyno room (front of the car), you cannot see the fan from the front of the dyno room.

secondly... the dyno is an indication of power. faily accurate, but dyno's do vary. at the end of the day, nomatter where you get your car dyno'd the engines output will be the same regardless of the power figure. dyno figures vary from dyno to dyno, due to inconsistencys between the dyno operators and enviroment variables.

27-11-2007, 11:50 AM
Hi Chris,how ur u?is it the fan on the wall you have on the left hand side?cause the fan is not directly in front of the car so i tought that the exhaust fan.and i didnt see the green big blower fan like on the other dyno usually use.if you really use the big blower fan, then i am sorry about my bad impression.maybe i didnt see where you put the big fan.my bad!sorry for this misunderstanding.

Btw,thx for the great tuned:thumbsup:!like it so much!

Why would you when the mild flash is less hassle from JTune no harness mods......

Why would you when the mild flash is less hassle from JTune no harness mods......

The Jtune mild reflash is a conservative, one size fits all product whereas with the Emanage you can tune it to match specific mod configurations. The Jtune product is easier to fit but it wouldn't make as much power. Putting cost concerns aside, i believe you'll be able to extract more power from the car with Emanage IF your car is modded.

dont need to tell them you have emanage in ur car:p.you can hide the emanage easily in ur car.like mine,if i am not telling you where i put it, i guarantee 100% you cant even see it or even think where i put it:p.at 1st i have no idea as well where they put it, i search everywhere inside my car i cant find it untill they tell me where it is.

That sounds like insurance fraud, be careful my friend works for a insurance company and they even track people down on internet forums to come up with excuses not to pay people. Most insurance company’s will do anything to not pay you, it doesn’t take much to look at your wire loom to see if its been modified and cut into. I remember one claim my friend told me about with a s15. A boost controller had be fitted and the person crashed their car and then removed the boost controller. The insurance company inspected the wiring concluded a boost controller had been retro fitted and refused to pay the claim due to undeclared modifications, so just be careful.

its hard to explain in here,but the clue is they put it in under the glove box on the front passenger seat.so,when you sit on the passenger side, there is exactly on the left side where you put your foot.you can even see where is the wiring.but as xframe88 said is true, better be careful with the insurance company.

If you're concerned about it being detectable by insurance co.or whoever then you're better off getting the Jtune reflash.

thats exactly what i want to know!

aparently you need an ecu with adjustable cam advance to fully optimise cams... and the emanage (even ultimate) doesnt have that?

im nearly willing to give stage2 cams a go even without ecu tuning.... but i keep getting burned when i suggest it to people lol maybe you can try it first? lol

only problem ive come accross is that for stage2 cams youll need valve springs (for higher lift) however, the k20a springs dont fit the k24a3 (or so adrian from toda and james from jtune discovered)

hey guys,

just wondering with the complete harness set i've been told by Is Motor racing that it requires a field one touch connector CN-13 to fit in the euro?
is that correct?
and they also recommended H-7 harness which is for the DC5 (RSX in the US) which will not need to use that field connector?

Can anyone help me and tell me that it is correct as i do not want to get something that will not work?

Thanks in advance guys!

lol you should install yours now man.
Well, I had bought this e-manage ultimate and plug and play harness of Tommy (CL9-K24A3), the starter of this thread.
Today I was planning to go to the workshop CL9-K24A3 went, to talk and organise tuning and installing my system. But,..I ended up installing the system myself as it is plug and play unit. I first thought his (CL9-K24A3) wouldnt fit my ECU as his was automatic and mine being manual, but that was wrong, everything fit perfectly.
Now my car is running the map that was tuned for Tommy's car, the VTEC point moved to 5500 rpm and it cut off at about 7300 or maybe 7400 I dunno cos there is no reading there but its a bit more that stock.;)
The gain I felt when I drove back home, even though weather in Melbourne today when I was driving back was 31 degree, the car reved heavier, in all power range. The gain was even much more than all the individual mods I did to my car, even more than Toda header.:eek:
I am still debating whether I should get it retuned to match specifically all the mods I had done, I'll need to drive it more and might need to get it dynoed to see what number it is running now.
This should be the best bang for bucks engine management option for our cars, seeing that after you have tuned and installed it, then you have to sell it, you wont lose as much money for this as it will fit another euro or even other car brands and model. If you buy this second hand like me, and deciding not to get it tuned, this system should only cost no more than $1000. I think it is WORTH it!!!!!!

Is e-manage ultimate better for jtune flash? How about the cost comparision?

27-11-2008, 09:02 PM
I think cost wise, e-manage ultimate was about AUD$900 and the boomslang harness is about AUD$300 shipped when the AUD was strong (correct me if im wrong).
Jtuned flash is about $1300? but you cant resell it?

Suntzu
27-11-2008, 09:11 PM
MY mild flash was $900. It can be resold if you swap your ecu and immob.

Im wondering if the emanage will be "unlearned" by the honda ecu.

If it sticks then its an awesome win and excellent cost effective option. Especially with cams.

Chris_F
27-11-2008, 09:26 PM
Apparently the e-manage ultimate has completely independent control of fuel and ignition (i.e. sends voltage directly) so there's no problem with it relearning. If you plan on running cams it'd be worth looking into a standalone that can control the VTC.

kitbkk
27-11-2008, 09:30 PM
Im not an expert on this but what I have read, the emanage sits between say stock ecu and say injectors. When stock ecu picks up data sent from the sensors, and resending data to injectors, emanage is adjusting this data and send it to injectors. So the stock ecu doesnt know there is any difference..correct me if im wrong anyone...LOL..
plus,,if anyone knows anywhere cheap to get my car dynoed...pls let me know..I cant wait to see what number my car is pulling with these heavy 12kg 19" rims lol.

What is the difference between the Greddy Emanage and Emanage Ultimate.. ?

On ebay, there is the emanage ultimate + wiring kit for $780 USD shipped which is roughly $1200 AUD..

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160284116425&fromMakeTrack=true&ssPageName=VIP:watchlink:top:us

You can also go direct to their website http://www.turboimport.com/catalog/electronics.htm where it is $685 USD (not including shipping) for the emanage ultimate + wiring harness kit.

Do you guys think it's worth it.. ?

Also, if i only have a HKS SRI, would there be considerable improvement or would it be worthwhile getting a computer?

greddy emanage = old model... typical pigy back ecu (dont buy)

greddy emanage ultimate = new model... new style 'parrallel' ECU (buy)

my opinion...

With the Hondata setup yes you need 2 ECUs.A K20 and your stock ECU+harness.
No you don't need 2 ECUs for Emanage option and you don't lose cruise control AFAIK.

For Emanage... No, the std ECU is used.
A V-Manage is also required for best results allowing for VTC control.
The cruise control remains & is unaffected.

Comparison is K-Pro gives absoulte control & precise tuning.
Emanage is always trimming over the top of what is unknown underneath.
That is the standard ECU.
Emanage works, the K-pro is better.
Only you can decide if either is actually worth it.

Im not really sure if its phychological thing, but today when I was playing with it, normally before installing the emanage, from reving the car all the way down from first to second, with VSA on, the lag was really really long, but now, it feels like that lag is only when wheels are spinning, but there is no retarding feel like before if you know what I mean.

yes, if your setup is the same.. the map can be saved into a PC file and imported into the other car.
The reason why it is not recommended to share tuning is because each car/modder will have different modification setups, so it's better to have it tuned to your car spec rather than in similiar spec to hondata reflash how its a one app fit all.

02-12-2008, 11:10 AM
If the tune is aggresive at 8/10, then you might be ok sharing maps with the same parts. But if the tune was extracting 10/10 of the power where there is very little room for error, then sharing the map is not advisable.

Crapdaz
02-12-2008, 11:15 AM

But unless you base it on two cars who have different mods and have initial dyno baseline, then apply the tune and see the difference. No one will ever know if it is advantageous or not.

my cables for EDFC is about half a 1din HU (cable tied together) and incl the greddy harness its like 2cm thick x 50cm long

yeh rofl they are massive.

EDFC wiring is thin. Don't tie them together, have them in 2 bundles instead so that it sits flatter under the carpet.

I am not too sure what sort of cable is involve in ECUs and if there are susceptible to interference or not... I would prefer to shield them and not bind them together as wires then to generate EMF even though very minor, and bundling wires together then to amplify them. In highend audio these noise are noticable. So I would assume that in ECU, noise is not good too....

the harness already has a shield mesh around it so shouldn't be too bad, but i get what you mean.

Well in doing so when i do put it in i won't be cabling it together with other cables but just have it free.

Im gonna leave my car with Chasers for a whole day. They said they will charge it per hours of tuning. This is because they have already got the maps of Tommy's euro there and they will only charge $120-150 per hour. And they also said they wont need to work on it longer than 2 hours. Seems to be really good. Ill ask them about dyno sheet before and after. Ill report back here once its done.

Just got back home LOL.
good news first, I only paid $150 for it.. so I think it is alright.
bad news, it only runs 127.3kw. LOL

First thing when I picked it up, the lights came on. They were the triangle with ! sign (VSA), VSA (actually letters), handbrake (even though it's off), and ABS lights were on. I was a bit worried about them but was told they would go away once I drive the car for a few minutes as the computer needed resetting. Once I drove it a bit they did actually go, no more warning lights. (YAY!)

I did'nt drive it hard on the way home coz it was raining today. So I dont know about improvements yet.

I did not have dyno result of my car without e-manage ultimate as I installed it with maps of Tommy (Thread starter). After tuning, it only pulls 127.3kw, 2 kws more than before tune (with Tommy's maps). But the dyno curves in the lower range and mid range show improvement after tune both HP and torque. Ill post the graph when I can get an access to a scanner LOL. Hopefully tonight.

I guess my numbers could be compared to CL9-K24A3 (Tommy) and ALN (Andrew)'s numbers since all of our cars have been tuned at the same place, same dyno.




My car (2005 Auto Euro Luxury):
Greddy emanage ultimate with plug and play harness
Skunk2 Racing catback
Comptech header
Injen CAI
Unortodox racing pulley set
NGK Iridium EX spark plug
Rims:Amistad Rotino SP2 (Japan) 19 inch
(Weight:approx 12 kg/wheels)

ALN's car (2003/2004 Manual euro):
Greddy emanage ultimate with plug and play harness
Fujitsubo catback
Comptech header
High flow cat
64mm TB
Clutch and Flywheels
Comptech ice box
Unortodox racing pulley set
NGK iridium EX spark plug
Mugen Thermostat
Rims:SSR (Japan) 19 inch
(Weight:??? slightly lighter than mine)
These are the current result from the dyno machine:

My car before tuned got around 103kw and after 114.4 kw.
ALN's car before tuned got around 114 kw and after 125.7 kw.

I can say that the result on the dyno graph read very low.Then the tuner itself said to me that dont refer to the number on our dyno machine.he said that the machine read very low.

There is one EP3 Type R, he got 124.? kw and at autosalon he got 134.? kw.so the tuner said that approx we add more around 7-10kw on our dyno result.when we have time, we will dyno our car again.

i can answer this - lol everything stills works perfectly...

emanage only controls/alters the ignition / injectors / vtec / map sensor* / throttle sensor*

yes k-pro is better in the sense that it allows complete control over the engine... so you'd be able to extract some more power...

however, its more expensive... and you need to source a k20 ecu to run the kpro chip in, and then find someone to make up a piggy back harness for you... (or buy the whole kit from hondata once its realesed?)

not sure with running the piggy back ecu if youd loose cruise? youd have to ask euroaccord13...

I think you would get 130 + kw on different dyno, Kit. Since few months before, I got ecu tuned at chasers, I constantly got 123-124 kw at wheels at Protek and Re Custom same with Tommy's car, seemed to manage difference between 8-10 kw in comparison to Chasers's.

What was the temp on the day, when they tuned the car? We were at 38-41 degree. Anyway it was a good result you got. :thumbsup:

kitbkk
16-12-2008, 12:52 AM
yo andrew! nice to see you here. hope everything goes well in indo!

i think it was about 20-25 degree when my car was getting tuned. so i guess if it was hot like urs my car would be pulling about the same or less hehe.:p

car now responds heaps better!
driving hard with 3 people in the car (me 85kg, my gf 47kg and my brother 115kg) feels like only driving with my gf only LOL...

driving with traction control on, when redlining from 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd, VCA light blinks like I think 3-4 times.. where as before tune it only came on like longer and only blink once..


as the ultimate cannot control VTC, will running say buddyclub N+ cams give reasonable gain? From what I read with stock cams, max 45 degree VTC is still safe. But with more aggressive cams, I heard we do not really need higher degree VTC as it will not be safe.
or is machining the VTC mechanism to 45 worth the risk? Will I need engine management to control it? Im so noob with this LOL

Chris_F
16-12-2008, 01:07 AM
Nice result on the dyno kit. Looks like the retune really helped the midrange.

You will still get some gains with cams but on the K-series being able to tune the VTC really does make a difference. Personally I wouldn't run aftermarket cams with the ultimate, I'd prefer to have something that can tune the fuel/ignition more accurately aswell as the VTC.

I'm going to try the stock cams with the 50 degree VTC once I've sorted out an ECU.

kitbkk
16-12-2008, 01:16 AM
Ill give it a miss then..
with those ECU like K-pro and Vipec, what is the chance of VTC slippage? I have read a thread on k20a forums there was a guy who ran a dc5r(I think) VTC mechanism and k-pro with k24a engine. The VTC slipped for only a split of secs and he blew his motor lol. I heard running a machined 45 degree stock VTC is more safe?

Hi,

i`m Chris from Germany and i`m looking for a long time to tune the Accord til i found this ;) We also got the Euro Accord.

I allready searched and looked to different threads, but i still got some questions (maybe my english is to bad...)

If i use the Ultimate and V-Manage is it possible to run aftermarket cams like Skunk2 Stage 1, or better can i tune a Type-R K20 Head with these combination or Turbo?

What is the different between VTC and Vtec engagement, sorry i never heard of...

Is there a way to raise the rev limit? We here in Germany got a 7200 rpm limit and that sucks!!!!!!

Will it also work on the Facelift?

Will it also work on the CL7 (not the Euro-R) it`s the K20A6 powered 147hp version?

Is it always the same harness (TSX 04-05, air & water) that i need?

Will the K-Pro Dual ECU work?
If yes could i use all standalone which can handle the K-Series i-Vtec, example an Haltech, Motec ect for engine controlling and the stock ecu the rest.
Do i need also a refresh ecu to usw the K-Pro?

Many many thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As far as I know the VTC voltage spike/slippage is a quirk of the Kpro ecu. ECU's like Motec and Vipec shouldn't have this problem, but you'd need to ask an experienced tuner about it to be sure. That's what I'll be doing ;)

pm sent about the VTC ;)

it's definitely much safer with the 45 degree VTC. The only problem is finding a trustworthy place to get the 25 degree vtc gear machined.

The funny thing is, you can buy aggressive aftermarket cams that are safe with the full 50 degrees. It makes me wonder how dangerous it really is with the OEM cams.

majority of those cams tho are made for the K20 tho, to my knowledge they have larger valve reliefs... on the K24 the piston to valve clearance is pretty small, which is were the 50* VTC comes into issues...

Yea that's true, the k20's do have more room to play with.

This is taken from the IPS website (http://www.intrinsicperformance.com/news.html):


IPS-K2 compatibility for use with K24A2 (TSX) confirmed. Piston to valve clearance @ 50 degrees VTC advance = 0.030". We suggest imposing max advance of 45 degrees through software. Clearances were taken using RSX-S VTC sprocket. TSX VTC sprocket has mechanical limitation of 25 degrees max advance.

They still suggest a 45 degree limit through software which will be possible with a good standalone ecu. The majority of cam manufacturers that mention max VTC usually say to limit it via software. Though mechanical limits are always safer...

It'd be good if you could buy an off the shelf 45 degree VTC gear.

I think its about 15cm x 10cm in length and width and about 2 cm thickness. Only guesstimate though. No drills need to be done at all. Once you hook the plug and play harness from boomslang to you ECU, put back the carpet to cover the harness, pull the harness through the back of the glove box. There is a gap smaller than a fist size. Then plug the other end of harness to your emanage. Easy easy! Everything goes in neat. You cant even see any part of the harness uncovered. Then I lock my glove box so no one will play with it lol.

if no one has any map to share. is there any website that teach you how to play with the ultimate or maybe forums which discuss about it?
i found a link which was on hondatech or acurazine or something that explained it but i can't find the link atm as i am at work.

But as justin mentioned you need O2 sensor....

Comptech comes with no cat but your mate has 06 model,from what i understand 06+has higher flowing cat than 03-05.So just use factory cat and see how you go.

help!!!

i pluged in all the wires and everything, then no one supplied me with a map so i just thought i will leave it stock till i get my header then get it all tuned together.

BUT for some reason, it still does something to the car. It won't let me rev pass 3000rpm, and it backfires when it hits 3000rpm.

HELP!!!! is it possible to restore back to stock? or get some map for just normal use till i get my headers.

Could the stock ecu have gone into limp mode but the emanage is still trying to force more air and fuel in causing the backfire at 3000rpm?

I'd disconnect the emanage straight away and disconnect the battery for a night.

lol its in limp mode...

did you set all the dip switches inside the unit for a K24?

and you also need to make up a car "profile" telling the greddy which sensors and alterations you wanna use...

disconnecting it breaks the loop in the injectors and ignition, it wont start unless you take the whole harness out and plug in the stock wires to the ecu...

if you can wait a day or two, ill try send you a base "profile" for an accord euro so you can have it running stock :thumbsup:

ill program in a manual throttle position voltage, but if you know how to add your own into the profile, prob best to do that once you get the map... just makes the partion throttle mapping more acurate...

what can we buy to remove the speed cut apart from standalone ecu?

There is no speed cut (from my 'testing'), only rev cut. There's some confusion as to whether the car's rev cut is a typical fuel cut, or the throttle body closing as well.

When I hit rev cut in the Euro though it feels much too jerky and quick to be the throttle body opening and closing. So I think there may be hope of increasing redline with a SA ecu.

How did they do this, with a SA ecu?

Also would it be possible, say for me hypothetically. To swap a K20A ecu into the Euro (as I've been told all the sensors are the same) and then piggy-back an Emanage or something similar onto it?

The sensors will be the same but the pinouts in the ecu will be wired differently. So no you can't do that.

You can piggy-back an e-manage ultimate onto the stock ecu anyway so theres no need for the k20a ecu.
