Yea a few people have. The only thing with the emanage is that it doesnt allow u to control the crank functions on the motor so you wont be able to advance or retard timing. Then you still have to buy the ejector harness so for the emanage so u can control the fuel. The AEM FIC however has all that built in. You cannot advance timing with it but in your case you are high boosted so you would be retarding timing which it can do.

I've been running an E-Mange blue for almost 2 years. It's running fine on mine and it you can retard timing with the blue unit.

dunno bro, weird shit, I was just cruising up the hill and then all of a sudden I heard a thunk! I was like wtf, and then the car died.. shop said I threw a rod and there was some pieces of metal when they removed the oil pan. Depressing but I actually found someone to buy the body... guy showed up in a lambo to pick up the car for his 16 yr old son (his 5th car), and sad part is I'm not making this up

Aem F/ic along with custom boomslang harness is prob your best bet, if you do not have the money for a full universal AEM standalone. But do not forget to get a wideband with data loging.

If that is the case, you will get the best results with a full stand alone ecu from AEM. That's what I buy if I had the 3k to dish out.

Give AEM a call and ask to talk to a tech, they will be able to answer any questions.

You do not need any special injector harness with either the emanage ULT or blue. Many have had great results with the BLUE. A wideband O2 is a must and you should richen the car up at VTEC and IMRC engagement or you will blow the motor. I have the emanage ULT and will be going to Jotech also for my tune in May. I will be at 9psi on a custom MP90 supercharger kit built up from a Comptech MP62 kit with RC440 injectors and 1:1 aeromotive fuel pressure regulator. You can also retard the timing with the blue, it has been proven here on the CLS a few times. What has not been proven is a piggy back advancing timing. I WILL find out what the emanage is capable of in May. I already have the Boomslang harness and have finally finished with the fabrication for the MP90. Its ready to go. As far as I know, no one has used an emanage ultimate yet on the CLS. I sure cant find anyone who has. BTW, I am a 6speed. Jim

I dont think raising the rev limiter is gonna do anything on stock cams. These cars commonly seem to drop off making power after 6500 RPM from what I have seen.
