I was under the impression that the ZDyne single wire doesn't allow the ability to tune whereas Hondata does.

 

I just bought a Hondata Stage 4b with datalogging. I'll give you guys a review when i get it all setup.

It doesn't, but ZDyne GOLD does.

 

aem ems

 

Zdyne gold will work, but it's very basic w/ no real usuable features. I have it now, and it gets the job done, but it would be alot easier w/ Hondata or EMS. I would reccomend switching to OBD1 and getting one of those. They are alot more user friendly and actually give you feedback about the car, rather than having to depend on auxilury gauges to get readings.

 

depending what ya have done but, why not electromotive TECII or III?

 

Ghettodyne, best bang for the buck.

ems isnt far behind w/ bang for the buck. it can be had for aprox 1200 brand new and it retardedly flexable. and has many many features the hondata and <TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Blaze45 &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">Ghettodyne, best bang for the buck.

nice!

 

Is ghetto dyne supported forced induction yet?

 

whoever voted for the hondata over an EMS is reatrded. the price reflects the features. and if those 2 are the choice EMS is the answer. now why not autronic for the price of a EMS u can have something evern better!

 

how about power fc? or f-con?

Those are piggybacks not standalones. EMS has my vote, with hondata a close second.

 

Best standalone... for what setup? If your car is only mildly~decent build then I would say either of these would work. If you have a more race oriented setup, but you want ti steetable then Hondata should do the trick.

Full race???
Why not drop a few thousand and do an Accel DFI or a MOTEC???

yes, with the new GhD 2.2

 

a little over 1k and you can get a haltech.. i know a couple people with them, completely programable and they work on any car. FI or not

the problem with haltec is that they are not plug & play standalone units. they require you to make your own wiring harness which in some cases isnt worth doing.

power fc is a full stand alone, the commander controls it,

my vote would be switch to obd1 and run the power fc with commander just cuz you dont need a laptop and can tune it on the fly

 

The Haltech E6K is good, and the wiring harness comes with it. The only thing is some sensors need to be plumbed in, but metric to AN adapters work really well.
The boost controller is only $190 CDN too, and reads up to 35psi.

 

thanks guys

 

If you want to go cheap and have the time:

I ordered mine last week for my CRX track car. It's getting excellent reviews, and for the price, the features and technical specs are impressive.

I have an E6k running my Prelude. It's a good ECU. If you are going with one of these systems, Hondata, AEM, Haltech, Autronic, then you want to go with whatever the local tuners around you support, that is if you don't plan on tuning it yourself.
