Post by **ca18detsilvia** » Wed Jan 22, 2003 4:58 pm

i read some of the past posts about the emanage. but i have a few ?'s. ok i'm considering the new prefec E w/ emanage. or the blitz SBD ID and power meter along w/ a super afc. which set up is better. i know a few of you us the emanage. how hard is it to set up. my dad has a lap top taht i can use to tune it. does the softwear cost extra from the unit itself. and does it require much experience to tune it. any tuning tips. also any reviews on the profec E. thanks guys. oh yea i'll be usign it on a CA18det w/ 440cc injectors and a T-25 from a black top SR. thanks alot

how much power are you making? If it's nothing crazy, then it's not worth the E-Manage, Apex'i also has really good electronics,

The basic E-manage set is about the same price as a SAFC and can be upgraded at a later date to control ignition and two subinjectors, seems like a better option. Now of course the SAFC requires no software or laptop to tune it, without that extra equipment the E-manage is just a glorified five knob AFC.

well off the bat i'm only going to be using a T-25 blacktop SR turbo so i'll only be making aroud 250. but i will be using larger 440cc injectors and will be installing a Z32 maf. like i said if i got the Super afc i would also get the blitz sbd id and power meter. that set up and the profec E and emanage are roughly the same price i think. i plan on one day getting a T-28 or T-3 but that probobly wont be for a while. my dad has a lap top that i could borrow for the set up so thats not a problem. but out of the two sets up. S-afc, SBD, powermeter-------or profec E, and e-manage. which of thoes two combinations. and also where is the best place to guy it. another thing. does anyone have any reviews yet on the profec E. thanks

the only downfall of the emanage is the problemsa that some guys are having with the ignition timing controll..

but other than that is ti WAY superior to the S'AFC in my opinion.

it does all that the S'AFC does and more, controlls bad idle and shift stall with cars using atmospheric BOV's

pressure sensor/map sensor to help out the stock or oversized AFM (so if your Z32 AFM ever sees it's limits you can get the MAP sensor too and turn up the boost MORE)

it can controll additional injectors, ignition timing, (if you can get it to work) which it VERY important for turbo vehicles.

it also has DATALOGGING which is vital for tuning.

and all this can be accesses in real time while driving via the E-01 boost controller and e manage interface, that means tuning while driving, data logging and correction and much much more, and god forbid that GReddy upgrades it and makes it able to tune bigger that 150% of your injector size. that would make it as powerful as a the older haltech and electromotive tec 2 and other 16 bit EMS.

go for the emanage and e-01 boost controller as it will open allot more dooors down the line for you, even if the ignition map givs problems, even though the japs say they don;t have problems with it in japan at all..

thtas my two cents.

also there is a woreing harness adaptor that simply is a plug and play affair with no cutting of wores etc, just remove your ecu harness plug and slip in the adaptor plug and plug in hte ecu and emanage and poof your done...

hey thanks man. i've heard about the problems, but exactly what kind of problems are there w/ the ignition timing. and what do others do about this. also how much is the wiring harness for the CA and what is the part number for it. and where is the cheapest place to buy it. so if i went w/ this set up i would need. profec E, emanage, "computer software and hook up"($$$), and the wireing harness. is this all. thanks alot.

I'm getting no help from GReddy at all on this and the latest update hasn't helped at all, save your money and buy something that works

Post by **themadscientist** » Wed Jan 22, 2003 4:58 pm

yeah Greddy blows for customer service. I bought my E-manage in Japan so I couldn't read the instructions. I sent Greddy-USA a nice e-mail requesting the English ones. They start grilling me, asking for proof of purchase, place of purchase, saying it's grey market and they don't support that, yada yada. I'm like "who cares where I got it, it's your product and I would like some help". I told them I didn't care if I had to buy it or if someone slapped it down on a photocopier and sent me some hazy burns, no good. Screw them.Luckily someone here posted a link to a Supra site I beleive that had it on a PDF file.

I am a little confused... does the e-01 allow all of the settings changes available through the use of the lap top? Or would I still need a lap top to be able to unlock the finer tuning options.

Also, if once I had it all tuned to my likings, I wouldn't have to have the laptop anymore right? (as in borrow one, tune, give back)

as far as i have read online it looks like the E-01 will allow you to view datalog info and tune at the same time. no laptop needed, now i am not too sure about this as the most comprehensive write ups on this are in japanese and i only speak "trini"

Heh Ya I know what you mean, Type CA18DET in google search, I'm sure theres more info than I'd ever need on my CA.. too bad 95% of it is in Japanese.
