Devin, at Payne Tech, is running the AEM EMS on his blown NSX. As you said, he started from scratch, and has put endless hours into it, which could benifit others interested in this, on our aplication. He may be the only one in the country running it on a V6 Acura. They will set you up if you want, but you won't like it up here right now,...temps in the mid teens, snowing and blowing like a beotch!

But remember, the EMS is not a piggy back unit which you are altering the factory controls. This is a stand alone ECU which replaces the factory ECU. As such it would be a problem with the 5AT CL/TL as the factory ECU controls the transaxle and requires many of the same inputs.
You could potentially run the factory ECU and the EMS in the 5AT with some sophisticated wiring and new sensors but it might be more than it is worth.
The e-Manage should do 95% of what we need at a fraction of the cost to implement the EMS.

I have now sourced the connectors but I still have minimums of ten pieces. In all, this would cost me about $1000 which I will not do right now. When we get both FI and NA results from the dyno I will try to organize something.

The 5AT has a 25P connector; the 6-Speed has a 24P connector.

So yes, it will be availble but when I don't know. I do know that if after the e-Manage dyno and it is proven out I wIll provide the complete PnP harnesses if desired.

Hey Brad, any chance I can use your e-Manage?? Just trying to make things a bit easier for the testing since we will also be installing and testing on an '01 AV6.
Also, is it OK for me to hardwire the e-Manage leads into your harness?? I'd prefer soldered and heat shrinked connections?? Lastly, do you want me to extend it similar to what I did on mine?? That way you would have some freedom on placement since the under dash location was a bit cramped.
Just let me know.

One other thing and FYI. TAG over at V6Performance is ordering the e-Manage and sending me his harnesses to wire up. He will then be heading to the dyno for tuning on his 8 PSI AV6. So we will have some other information from a blown AV6 as well.
So in all we should have numbers for a blown AV6, CL-S, TL-S and NA AV6 and a TL-S. That should cover a wide range and provide a good indication of the potential.

Yes, I'll ship the E-Manage tomorrow, if they will take it, or Monday if need be,......and, yes on the hardwire, and extend it like yours also,... thank you!!!
Is the "A" in AV6 mean it's an automatic, and are their ECU connectors, and pin outs, the same as ours?
Of course the full potential will not be realized until your other project is done.

I'll hardwire, extend to about two feet (too allow it to fit in the glove box) and do a voltage drop test.
The AV6 = Accord V6 with the J30A motor. The ECU pin outs, where related, are identical to the 5AT connections.
Yea, it'll be nice to see what occurs with the IC. I am also very curious what the NA gains will be.

Just FYI, I would wait a few weeks. We should have maps done which could save you the $$ on tuning.

I'm waiting on the dyno schedule. I need a Saturday morning and maybe into the afternoon to get this going. We'll be doing three cars; my blown 6-Speed, a TL-S with the basic bolt-ons and an AV6. That should be enough to give a good indication.
I spoke to the shop owner last Friday and he was going to check on open Saturday slots which are often difficult to come by. I was wanting the 31st or 7th so it is just around the corner.
I have also sourced everything needed to get PnP harnesses for this system. So once the gains are shown, it will be available.
What sucks is the $500+ I am sure I will incur for the multiple dyno sessions including tuning with a wide band monitor. My wife is not going to be happy about that when my car is only a small portion of it. :o

January 31 (Superbowl weekend) is out for me entirely...So is Valentine's weekend...
I can do Feb 7th or that of Feb 21st, but I do need a heads up soon or I'll get roped into babysitting my godchild the weekend of Feb 7...
And scalbert, I planned to pay for my own dyno runs (before and after tuning time) so I'm simply trusting you to work out a good deal...

Thanks, that will definitely help out on the costs.

Finally, we have a date set; Saturday February 7th at 8:00 AM. Actually, I'll be there at 8:00 AM but it is not necessary for others to be there that early but not too much later.
Here is the URL to DynoLab, they just down the road from the Big Chicken:

Okay, I'm coming in very late Friday night (leaving after work--around 6pm) and will be there bright and early (parental units get up at 5am anyway) Saturday morning. I might even install my sways early that morning if I can't sleep (yup, finally bought some more). I assume you are doing all the wiring for my car at Dynolab itself...
You can pm me if you need anything else, call 904-228-2733 or even email maliszec@msagroup.com (rest of you freaks leave me alone).
