S/C, HBP & E-manage Question
I'm going to be installing the E-manage unit to my S/C'd HBP'd CL. Do I still need to keep Comptech's EMU wired in? Does anyone have any info on how to install the unit and if there are any major considerations I may need to tell the shop b/f getting it dyno tuned?

if your talking about the ESM, it will need to be taken out so e-manage can get the correct voltage. also, one thing to remember is to make sure your boost limiter cut setting is check or else your ecu will see boost and pull timing like crazy.

yes the ESM comes out like Bigguy told you.

I have Scalbert's excellent PnP wiring harness. You've gotta see this thing! It must have taken weeks to create.

disconnect the ESM... tap the one wire for RPM... download the map to your Computer.
Do the thottle postion voltage set-up... start the car... tune it how you like...
enjoy.

Technically you are correct. With the e-manage if you tune it well enough you can "tune out" the lean spot that is created with the HBP and IMRC connected.

I did sell it indeed.
My reasoning was complex...
After having that rear main seal episode and dropping $2100 to fix it (along w/ new water pump and timing belt) plus only running a best of 13.9 @ 101 at the track last Wednesday, I decided that I'd had enough of modding this automatic car. I've been toying with the idea of a different car for the past six months anyway and the IC just wasn't making any sense. With 83k miles on the original tranny, I am also starting to worry about future expenses. I know MrSteve and Mattg understand what I'm saying. On top of all that, Habib was the most persistent guy I've ever met. He PM'd me twice a day begging me to sell it to him. This was before I had even received it!
I apologize sincerely to Allout for not giving you a ring first. To tell you the truth it honestly just didn't cross my mind. You've always been so helpful and I feel aweful now. Maybe I can find a nice blown 6-spd like MrSteve and I'll get back on that IC list.

Good thing you forgot about Allout![Wink](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Yeah, I have it now but need some help wiring E-manage, cuz Seattle's harness was autnatic it wouldn't do me much good.

Your decision to not go IC is probably a wise one. It's easy to get caught up into the more power mode. After I saw what Ronnie's C32 AMG does, it puts things into a different perspective.

Back to the E-manage...
I called a shop about getting the emanage tuned and he said that I shouldn't hook up the ignition side of the emanage on Honda V6's. He says it messes up the stock ECU. Is this true?

the ignition timing map worked perfectly on my car, so that statement isn't true. also, if your using scalbert's harness, the ignition side is already intergraded into the plug.
you should just get your car tuned here in portland cause that shop that you mention doesn't seem to know what their talking about.

I agree, they don't really know what they're talking about. I did find a shop called CarbConnection in Kirkland that says it should be a very easy tune (especially since I already have an O2 bung in the exhaust.

The car "felt" fine last week when I only ran a 13.9. It's kinda hard to feel the difference between 13.9 and 13.6. I don't think belt slippage was ever my problem.
