Greddy emanage tricks your ECU by altering the signal before it comes into the ECU, where as the other programs hack and edit the chip on the ECU and physically change the values.

crome, neptune, uberdata, hondata S200 all those should be under $500 but honestly in any boosted application the 1 thing you shouldn't limit by a budget is fuel management.

If you have a shitty turbo, it will just fall apart and you replace it
shitty pipes, couplers and **** might blow off
shitty intercooler, doesn't work as well
shitty fuel management = you buy a new engine.

Crome is free unless you want the "pro" version.
Uberdata is also free. Check out http://www.tunewithcrome.com along with http://forum.pgmfi.org

If you don't feel like dealing with different bugs & non-tested software, I would recommend you go with neptune or hondata.
You end up getting what you pay for in the ems world, just like anything else.

I prefer neptune but a shop here locally offers a really good deal on it. Chrome and Uberdata are good if you can tune yourself or know someone that can do it. The shop I take my cars to offers neptune installed and dyno tuned for $750 so being one that hasn't mastered the art of tuning with the other options, it's my best bet to get it done by someone that does it for a living lol.
