U can be a dumbass sometimes. A gloried AFC??? Ultimate controls the fueling exactly the way you you idiot. Stick to your Uberdata buddy.

ultimate offers a lot more control, much better resolution, etc... the regular emanage, as seen in the greddy turbo kits and such is a completely different beast, sharing not much more than a name. It simply doesn't have the capabilities to be an effective tuning means, much like the vafc.

There's a reason you never seen anyone seriously trying to tune a turbo honda with a vafc or regular emanage, they lack the ability to do it well.

U cannot be serious.

The emanage blue offiers 15x15 tunable injection/ignition/airflow maps. injection and ignition can be based off MAP pressure, TPS, acceleration and the airflow MAPS are TPS only. Both offer dataloging, digital dash and more.

The ulitmate offers nothing over this. Upgrade your emanage blue to the latest firmware and it is EXACTLY the same when running on our honda. It doesnt offer some features, but the basic tuning capabilities are exactly the same!

Odd, all the feature lists I've ever seen for the emanage blue talk about bs stuff, like only 5 fuel adjustment points, only being able to control injectors up to 150% larger than stock, etc

Well its alright. The more the american's hate these things, the more i can pickup on ebay for the price of a tank of fuel :P

Google: "Yahoo e-manage group" . Download the software and look at it urself. Instead of going off what u read. Ive used these on many cars. Great bang for buck. there is also a program called 'e-supporters' which enables auto-tuning through wideband, mapping of afr, dyno simulation and more.

I cant be bothered screens hotting, but here is a pic off there website. And yes, it does full real-time map trace and all alter-ations are realtime to the ECU. All come as standard. No emulators required :P

just a japanese translator and you're set to tune!

**saxman** · 20-12-2006 03:14 PM

can you confirm that they can run larger injectors than 150% over stock? Greddy themselves were claiming this the limit for a while, but apparently with new firmware available, things are a bit different. Don't know if it was a software or hardware limitation.

150% over stock sounds round-about right.

stock, 240cc
i ran, 440cc

Ive heard up people going upto 550cc before idling issues.

dont waste time with these type of ecu's do it once do it properly u will end up in the long run spending the same amount of $$$

**LVNIT** · 20-12-2006 04:59 PM

Care to explain what is exactly wrong with using an e-manage?

Weq has used it previously with fantastic results. I know of plenty of users of the e-manage and have nothing to fault, it has served its purpose perfect.

**turbo convert** · 20-12-2006 05:03 PM

well i have heard of plenty of other ppl and know some who find it difficult to find a tunner who is actually competant at tunning the g-reddy emanage!
so technically u r correct there is prob nothing wrong with the unit however get the tunners recommendation 1st because it all falls on him.
at the end of the day you get what you pay for like anything to do with cars.
