This is my opinion from seeing a few done to other peoples cars, but I don't think that they are any good at the moment. I've seen them on a few different cars, including a 200SX and an R34GTR, both had serious problems.

The 200SX was an auto, and the E-manage says that it works with auto's, but it didn't, kept melting coil-packs. Upon quizzing TRUST about it they said that they had never actually tried it on an auto, they just assumed it would work.

I think that it is going through the teething problems that all EMS go through, and oneday it will be a very good product, but at the moment I don't think it is.

If anyone has another experiance then I'll be more than happy to hear it.

See'ya:burnout:

  • 2 weeks later...

the emange is a interceptor type ECU, tuning is done via a laptop which is linked with what seems to be a 9pin serial <-> USB cable.

software is not bundled with the unit and needs to be purchased seperately.

16 x 16 (load vs RPM) in the basic package, much like a SAFC except this is load vs RPM.

Easy/Hard to tune? Dude that depends how competent YOUR tuner is...

What else do you need to know?

ed,

This is correct. I have heard many a positive testimony to match the couple of negative ones. Try the e-manage forums (there are at least 3 that I know of). Most car owners are very satisfied.

After looking at the software it appears very intuitive.

rev210, yes....and you can hook it up to a profec e-01 for the wank factor scale of 10/10 :rolleyes:

rev, can you PM me the forums? I'm very interested in reading more on them :D

cs, what are you confused about? depends how much you want to spend....basic package of the emanage works just like a SAFC but much cheaper than a PowerFC. You can slowly upgrade the emanage with the ignition harness and then the injector harness (if upsized injectors) and also hook it up to the e-01 to tune via the e-01's screen.

One thing I did notice with the software was if you upgrade injectors and you already have a basic tune BEFORE the injector upsize, you simply enter in the % increase of the injectors and it automatically adjust your maps to suit. :D

Perhaps wander down to your local tuner and see if they have done any emanage units.

People's good exeriences and success are far more valuable than negative feedback, except where the negative feedback is all you can find. This is simply not the case with the e-manage. I know I'd rather speak to someone who made the e-manage work than someone who couldn't, the guy who couldn't can only tell you what not to do.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
