Greddy Emanage (vs. VAFC)

Does anyone have the e-manage? I know the VAFC is ok, but emanage is comparable price and seems to have way more tuning abilitys (with software)....It supposedly has a 16 x 16 fuel and ignition grids, datalogging.....things VAFC doesnt have....but I also havent heard of people having it.....any help?

The software and additional goodies to do everything you listed raise the cost well above that of a vafc.

Yes, the complete package is a step up from the vafc. It allows more control points for the fuel, and also has a seperate control for ignition. I think it is all nearly $500 without the software.

Is the Emanage going to be the next big thing over the vafc. Seems like it might be considering people are always looking for new ways to go above VAFC but still spend less then on the new ECU like hondata.

I wonder if anyone will be brave enough to try this new thingy

You could be the first one to try NXlude.

You can pick up a VAFC for around $160 shipped nowdays.. thats a huge price difference.
E-manage better be worth it................ I mean over 10whp at least.

why can our ecu/motor respond like RSX-S with Hondata #4.........

I thought the main advantage of the Emanage over VAFC was the ability to adjust timing curve with a $40 add-on harness. I gathered that that was one of the big hang-ups with an OBD-II H22 so I was kinda looking into doing emanage when I get my header/race cat/exhaust set up this spring.

Otherwise, you have to switch to OBD-I to adjust timing which = more $$ and failing emissions, right?

you need to do more searching, there are a few people on this board that are using E-Manage.

Someone on this board, IIRC, posted an N/A dyno plot at nearly 190 whp with just bolt-ons.

Your a big boy now though, you can search for it yourself.

Did some research, and found this..

e-manage installed, getting tuned next week!

he hit 200whp with I/H/E/CC/P and e-manage.. but never posted dyno plot.
btw, what is CC? crower?

couldn't find anything else. I need to work on my research skills.

i remember he was able to hit over 200WHP but sacrificed mid-range so he retuned and ended up just shy of 200WHP. not too bad
