HONDATA.... advantages over emanage?
OK... I have some questions about the two systems. I have the greddy emanage unit with all the extra sensors and harnesses. My buddy is currently having lots of problems with the greddy people and their products. I need to know the actual advantages that hondata has over emanage. Everyone on this forum always says that hondata was better, and i am wondering the advantages in tuning.
Also, I want to know what options i need for the hondata system. I will prolly get a s200b but what else should i get. Will my tuner have the rest of the neccessary software (prolly gonna be gruvytune)? How much will this run me? anywhere that sells cheap>?

Re: HONDATA.... advantages over emanage? (streetlvlhatch)
if you can find someone who can properly use the e-manage then i might go for it, but thats pretty difficult from what ive heard. and i read that the e-manage has some sort of limit on the size of the injectors it can handle. but these are just guestimations. Id just rock with hondata since im pretty sure youve seen what it can do, just look at some of the posts on this forum.

I use the e-manage it is very simple to tune. It does limit the size of injectors due to loading time, which can cause flooding in the motor. but also you can set up added injectors which is a plus in ways.

I have not used the E-Manage nor do I know much about it so I am not going to say anything about it. I went with Hondata because it's proven, Hondata is an established company so their always going to be working on Hondata, the support Hondata offers and many other things.

what problems are you having with the E-manage? I'm helping my buddy install one in his Maixma...the tuning doesn't look that hard...with the pressure sensor installed its same hg/psi x rpm table setup like most standalones(ie-hondata, uberdata, etc.). only thing I'm scared of is if its gonna blow the coils like its been doing on some eclipse/talons
did you check the E-mamage mailing list to see if anyone else could help you?? truthfully though I'd sell the Emamage and go for Hondata...you'll have MUCH more versatility as far as tuning goes in the long run

You may want to hold off on the Hondata purchase. I went with Hondata because it was "proven," and AEMs were supposed to be such a pain in the ***. There are some issues with the S100/S200 series that Hondata refuses to admit because it would end up costing them too much money to fix. If you can find a 2B used for a reasonable price, this would be a better option, in my opinion. Stay away from the new Hondatas until they fix it.

I'm sure you've been reading all the threads where people have these problems. Here's a quote from one of the threads:
<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote »</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">You know, I just retuned over the weekend.
Rebuilt the motor and new wastegate.
Anyways, I told my tuner, Shawn @ Church Auto, that I was still running the 3b.
He said I was a lucky one because all the S users have these part throttle blips.
We talked about it for a bit, not sure what it was, but I was suprised to hear that.
Anyhow, he said with his experience, switch the maps and Hondata over to 3b setup, all problems gone.
</TD></TR></TABLE>
This isn't the only place that I've read that, either. For Hondata to admit that there is a problem would be financial suicide.

Not everyone is having this "hesitation" problem.

thanks, just making sure.
and hondata is going to have to address this. it seems beyond tuning in a growing number of cases.
