Emanage is being a pain in the ****!!!i keep having CEL's after CEL's and im sick of it!!!can i ditch it and just get a VAFC and use that because i dont plan on running much boost,prolly just the stock 5psi on the greddy kit???i know it would be alot easier to fine someone to tune the VAFC!!

you can ditch the e-manage but the wiring harnes that was tapped into is going to be a mess. i suggest you forget about the AFC hack and just pick up crome or uberdata and run 7psi all day without the worry of a shitty hack in your car imo

uberdata can be downloaded off their main page. and depending on where you live most performance places tune this system now, and many people are learning to tune the system, so look around in local posts to see off there is a tuner near you(wow that sounded like an ad)

Are you attempting to tune this yourself? Did you install this, yourself?... This may lead to some answers here.

so you have it on the stock psi and the emanage comes pretuned for that. nothing wrong with the emanage if you wired it up right. i see installer error here. what CEL's are you throwing?

You have a P2P, unless for some odd, retarded reason the coupe and the sedan are different.

And about the DIY, I wouldn't try to chip your ecu by yourself unless you know what you're doing with that sort of thing.

If installed and set up properly, you would not be getting trouble codes. What trouble codes are you getting? Have you bothered checking???
