I have a TL-S w/comptech supercharger and I getting two gauges installed tomorrow and tech at the shop suggested that I should get a greddy e-mange ultimate so I said what about the Apexi neo and he said the e-mange has more adjustability. Would either one of these be worth buying and tuning? Any real gains?

It's all really how much you want to spend and what you want to do performance wise.

I asked the same question a week or so ago to some members. Never really got a good responce back. My problem is finding a shop that is knowledgable on tunning E-Managment. Every one around here doesn't want to touch it. They all want to use Honda Data....no luck for us. Anyways, E-managment has more adjustability and has more options, but for me I'm only using it for fuel managment (and have a basic program at that). So I don't see why you could not get aways with it. Clinton

Ptuning.com is installing my gauges and I think they use the e-mange in allot of other cars so they think that’s it’s the best solution. I asked him what kind of numbers and he said he couldn’t tell me. I can’t see spending $600.00 for the e-mange and $400.00 to dyno tune it for 10 hp.I’m just trying to see what would be better for my car and get a ball park figure of what I could get.

I was lucky to find a tuner for the UniChip in my car in Washington state. We don't have jack shit up here.

When I get my car retuned I'll dyno with the values off and let you now the difference.

you would be spending a hell of lot more than $600 on the emanage, dont forget about the harnesses and adapters. i think emanage is useful only if using a blower/turbo, otherwise if you are n/a, stick with afc neo and harness, thats what im doing.

Very true, you must also keep in mind that tuning the Emanage costs much more. Most shops I've talked to don't like using it. Where an AFC might cost $100-$200 to tune you can expect at least double for the Emanage.

yup, its much more complex than an afc neo. neo would only take an hour to two to tune. the j32runs nicely as is with the factory tune as most have figure out. unless you have big mods, you will only net around 10whp.

i'm expecting to get 15 or more w/ my current setup.

the original poster should use an emanage. he will need to control timing a bit whereas an n/a setup would not and neo would work fine.

so you think I would get some good gains with the e-manage?

define what you think is good? with the blower and tons of mods, i dont see why you shouldnt be able to creep up to around 300whp.

I would love to get that.
