hey guys, so anyone who has the e-manage, i would love to hear pro's and cons, i am n/a now and soon to be procharged hopefully. . how will the e-manage work for me, i am not going for crazy power, 360whp to 400whp max. i live in upstate ny so have lotts of climate changes which i have read all about when it comes to tuning. i just wanna know if it will get the job done and if my car will drive like it is stock or what to expect out of it, also is it worth it to get a utec instead of an e-manage. . if you were to be in my shoes which route would you go, i am not talking stand alones here, we all know haltech haltech haltech.,.

 

it will get the job done.. most others seem to use the UTEC but I'm sure anything that can pull timing and control fuel will do ok.

 

thats what id say too, i am just needing something that is gonna be able to give me a safe tune with stock like driving conditions. i have heard how the utec has a hickup when going from ecu to utec, such as going from no boost to getting into boost.

 

Uprev doesn't have any hiccup problems and can support far more power than the procharger can produce.

 

too bad there is no support i know of for me......upstate ny...no tuners for this that i have head of

 

depends who tunes it


upstate NY I know 1 excellent tuner for utec's

I've known him for a long time now, down to earth guy who knows his stuff

 

i called mrc today and they steered me toward a utec, i just think for half the price the e-manage could get the task done just fine, i really don't know though since i have no experience with it, thats why id like to hear from some people who have or had it and hear how the car respondcs to it with boost. I believe i have called them before, ill def keep them in mind, but i have heard nothing but good things about mrc which is prolly same distance from me to either one.

 

i love the utec for user tunability. its an awesome unit for a great price. works well with boosted 350's and g35's. make sure you get the external map sensor, its worth the extra 125-150 dollars.

 

So I procharged last summer, dunno about climate issues being that bad because i live up in Canada anyways i had a great tuner use the FMU that came with the kit and suprisingly i made 383whp but down tuned to 370whp. plenty enough power for me

 

was that with the 7lb pulley?, what else is done, and what dyno was it? how much boost was it actually running

 

where in upstate ny are you

 

im in ilion ny, it is ten minutes from utica if you have heard of it, it is exit 30 on thruway. right next to herkimer. any idea? y whats up

 

ya it was a 7lb pulley, i actually used the procharger fmu but am thinkin of going with the e-manage or utec myself. (most likely utec) since my last post i've built bottom end. forged pistons, rods, etc.

remember im from Canada, but i tuned at Motion Performance in Winnipeg Manitoba. also i recommend you get a different fuel pump, the procharger kit comes with a second external pump, its just dumb. spend the money and get a walboro or smthg
