Staying N/A... eManage Ultimate or Blue?
For an NA setup, you will need the UTEC main unit, which are about $970 street price. If you plan on doing road tuning, it would be best to get the "Tuner" as well. The Tuner is a wideband controller and sensor, that interfaces and logs directly into the UTEC. It makes road tuning much easier. The tuners are between $450-$600 depending on which model you select. For your setup, I think the basic Tuner with Bosche sensor would be fine. They are $460
just the UTEC itself is fine for NA use - you can add on the Basic Tuner as well if you want to log AFR as well. I'll PM you pricing as we have a special on the UTEC's at the moment

I have been going to the local 1/4 mile track to watch for improvements and log various data points. I have learned quite a bit and as a result have made some changes to other mods to capture their impact. The data logging and the graphs that the EU creates have helped me soo much that I would never want to give that aspect up. We have had some rain up this way so I haven't been able to hit the track with my latest changes that really seem to have changed the car, almost like waking from the dead

I just want something that can tune for full N/A mods so I can run her up to 6600 safely without worrying about slowly killing the engine by running lean. Is it worth $400 to tune timing or not?
<- On a tight budgI went directly to SGP Racing and inquired the same question? They gave me sound advice. The u tech is simply a stand alone ecu that will tune the crap out of a f/i motor and as well as the e manage ultimate, But if you staying n/a like I am then I suggest the blue simply because all were adding is simply breathing modz and a few pulleys. In short get the blue because it’s cheaper and will be suitable for your setup and its still a pretty good piggyback.
The E manage ultimate is more user friendly and has a few more bells and whistles and the u-tech is simply a stand alone that might get you an extra 5 to 10 hp. These ecu’s are most beneficial to FI simply because of the advanced tuning options that they offer. The best price I’ve seen for a u-tech was 550$ in the marketplace. But is it worth the possible 10hp I don’t know I have the blue and it is fine and you can gat the blue for a great price in the market place I got mine for a 100 bucks and I’m getting tuned in a week or so. I hope this helps you and good luck
