Okay if it says 308hp to the crank, how many horses would it be putting to the wheels?

Unchip references an optional MAP sensor module so you can tune via MAP/RPM. I assume the unchip also clamps MAF voltage as does the eManage.

The biggest difference is the method in which the Unchip enriches fuel, vs. the eManage. The mapping tables are essentially identical. But the eManage adds IPW directly, whereas the Unchip adds IPW by tricking the MAF. Two very different things, and the MAF trick method has limitations, and unwanted side effects...such as timing variations. Some of the timing issue can be tuned out, but its still more precise to add fuel via direct IPW increases, and leave the MAF alone...just clamped. eManage can easily run with a pressure sensor, as many of us are doing. If you have the e-01, you already have the pressure sensor, and just need a $20 cable to connect from the e-01 brain to the eManage.

This stuff is a way over my head. So would the Emanage be better than TS Flash? Is the Emanage easy to install or would it require professional installation? A person who is trying to stay N/A eventually wanting to go supercharged, would the Emanage be a wise choice to go with as far as getting more out of the Z or just go with the TS Flash?
