What would be a better choice to go with the emanage or safcII can you run both of them at the same time or does it not make a difference. Do you neeed a btm with the emanage?

SAFC controls fuel only. Emanage controls your fuel and your timing.You'll need some kind of device to tune the emanage though. Depending on your psi I don't knwo which one to tell you to get. Low psi(10psi) just get SAFC.Anythign over that you need somethign to control timing whether it be msd btm or some kinf of piggy-back, or ecu tune

I found an emanage for 200. The thing that bothers me is that I have a mac and not a PC.

I picked up an emanage, support tool, ignition harness, subinjector harness and cables for $260 shipped. As much as I'd love to have the ultimate...it would been about $250 more, plus the harness, and another $100 for the software.

If you want to run the software on a Mac, you can use Virtual PC. I have it on my Mac so I can run Xp and Tiger at the same time. but you'll also need some kind of an adapter so you can plug in the serial cable.

I forgot all about virtual pc i have it on my mac but only use it when i use gps which is rarely. Thanks

Does anyone know how much boost you can run without a btm? With a Air Research super 60 and safc II? If I go that way.

Emanage you wouldnt have to worry about timing right?

I got a blue with link cable & ignition cable for $200. The guy didn't even know he had the ignition cable. I opened the box and was like, "score!"

I'll probably pick up the pressure sensor for around $100. That way you can make it boost sensitive. I'm only looking for around 225HP and other than correcting for injectors, I'm going to try to tune by only pulling timing.

I'd get a used blue though. The ultimate is nice for over 300HP but so expensive.
