Is the greddy e-manage safer and more reliable than a fmu/vafc/walbro setup? Thanks.

 

Yes...

 

anyone know of any sites with details on the E-manage's features?

 

is this the same as the "blue box"?

 

hi , I'm new here could you please tell me where I can find the search engine for this forum. Dammit! Why didn't I see the word SEARCH at the top of the page?

 

The E-manage is basically a V-AFC with a fancier interface, as far as I'm concerned. It's safer IF you run bigger injectors and tune it well.

 

is it possible to ban these useless images that seem to be appearing more and more?

 

might wanna try www.greddy.com

(imho, the e-manage is a waste of $$...costs like 800 for the full set-up and doesn't do all that much...)

 

Right now the software for the e-manage still has many bugs in it and the final version of the software will be released in a month. The software is suppose to let you tune the injector, air/fuel, and igntion. The problem is I need to wait another month for the software to be debugged so I can use the e-manage! I need to get a fuel setup asap, u guys thinnk I should just go with the fmu/vafc setup or wait till next month?

 

Well, the only reason I might consider getting the E-manage is the California folks like me might need it to stay CARB legal. I was planning to get the Greddy Kit for the Lude and maybe the E-manage depending on the cost and features it comes with.

I've already tried searching for E-manage info on http://www.greddy.com but I couldn't find any detailed info. maybe I'm just looking in the wrong place or not hard enough.

 

I was looking at the instruction manual and I might of read it wrong but I could of sworn I saw the E-management system only having 7 points of tuning, compared to the VAFC wich has 8 points of tuning. Hmmmmmmm.

 

from greddy's website:
e-Manage (piggy-back fuel computer)
e-Manage is an inexpensive programmable fuel management system that allows you to properly tune your factory fuel system, without having to change the entire factory ECU system to an expensive "stand-alone" unit. The e-Manage system is a universal "piggy-back" type unit, which taps into most factory ECU wiring and it still utilizes the existing sensors. Basic functions will allow the user to slightly alter factory injector duty-cycle(± 20% at 5 preset RPM points), by intercepting and altering airflow or MAP sensor signals. For VTEC cars you can adjust the VTEC shift point.
Additional features that are built into the system, but are only accessible though the use of our PC-Windows based "e-Manage Support Tool" communication software (Please see our Authorized GReddy Support Dealers for more information) are a 16x16 Airflow Adjustmemt Map, Larger Main Injector correction adjustment, Upgrade Air Flow Meter adjustment, Boost Limiter Cut, Anti-engine Stall, VTEC-fuel adjustment, Real-time Map Trace, Real-time Display, Real-time Communication, and basic Data-logging.

With the use of our "Optional Injector Harness" and the software, the unit has the ability to control an additional 16x16 Injector duty cycle Map and the Controls for adding up to 2 Addional Sub-injectors. If the "Optional Ignition Harrness" and the software is used the unit has the ability to control a 16x16 Ignition Timing Map. All of the above Maps can also be Map-traced in Real-time as well. If the factory range of Map or Airflow meter is surpassed, you can incorperate our "Optional GReddy Pressure Sensor and Pressue Harness" to set larger scales of ajustment.

All installation and tuning should only be made by a trained techntion with proper Air/Fuel Monitoring tools.

...look at the prices. that's hondata 2b territory.

Tom

 

thanks for the info Tom, I guess I missed that link

EDIT: The only obvious difference I can see between the Hondata 2B and the E-manage is that all the stuff in te E-manage alows you to "tune" your own car. with the 2B you still have to take it to someone with a burner or whatever to change your stuff (I'm not very Hondata literate)
