Re: 92-95 greddy on 98 y7 (code47mastermind)
everything bolts on the same.
don't use the Emanage, get a OBDI conversion harness and run a chipped P06 with crome or uberdata. I've been down this road way to many times, just trust me and don't use the Emanage. You are also going to need larger injectors, the minimum being 310cc, you can always use DSM 450cc's to save money just make sure your tuner knows what size they are.
Also if you have the Y7 intake manifold you'll need to add a pipe to reach the throttle body or if you want to do something even better get a Y8 or Z6 intake manifold and the piping will fit perfectly.

you're right but try to find a tuner that can tune Emanage to run as clean as a chipped P06. They don't exist. Why use a piggy back system and lie to your ECU when you can let your ECU actually run the engine and see what is really happening using a Honda processor.
Plus you get the bonus of not having your CEL on all the time. Emanage is alot better than the FMU Greddy used to sell their kits with and it IS good enough to make the car driveable but it will never be as precise as a Factory ECU. You will also get way better mileage with a P06, and not have to change your spark plugs every oil change.
Another reason is you won't have to wire anything in and your factory wire harness never has to be cut. I ran an Emanage on a Y7 that was intended for a Y8 back when there was no support for doing such things. If you don't know exactly what you're doing and don't have a factory service manual it can be very dangerous to the car's electronics. Why go through all that when you can just use a conversion harness that can be unplugged easily when it's time to remove it?
last paragrapgh I swear!
You could probably sell that Emanage for at least $150-$200 in a couple days time then use that money to buy a chipped P06 and a conversion harness and still have enough money left for a case of Heineken.
