Well, I'm gathering all the parts and info to make the turbo upgrade, I had read the tutorials, and all, but I still have a question or two; this topic, is to try and address the fuel management issue. Of course, the first question is which unit to get? I been reading about the E-manage, but there is the blue and the ultimate, and of course the other brands, so, as for your eperience, which would be the closest to a perfect match? also, these being the "piggy back" type, I understand we still using the air flow meter, right?
so, for you to be able to help me, here is the list of what I allready have in stock for my 2001 4G64:
Turbo t03/to4
ext. aeromotive wastegate
blitz blow-off valve
450cc injectors
bosch fuel pump
22x6x3 intercooler
thats it, for now.
I also plan to convert to stick, a soon as a donor apears.
well, I hope someone can share some light about the fuel management issue, thanks in advance.

The blue would be just fine, I've seen the shit in action and when i say it gives you total control over the car thats just what i mean. You can do all types of things and tuning can be a snap if you got the right file to upload, on the SR20 forums they swap tuning files like crack over there. You can clear codes, see actual engine readings, even turn off the fuel pump right through the software. The Ultimate im sure has more added features but you cant and wont go wrong using the blue.

Is this true for both 7g and 8g's. Does the emanage just care about the 4g64 not what vehicle it happens to be in? I also am deciding on this or just doing sm link.

hey man whens the turbo going in.. yea u can use the emanage it will work for you.. Some people only complain about the lack of timing or ignition control that it exhibits for some people.. it definitely scales the injectors fine and the other functions such as antistall and other things seem to work fine. . getting them to work perfectly is another story haha.. the timing is being adjusted for me on the map trace but i cannot tell because my logger broke so as soon as my tactrix cable arrives i can verify... u need to come to a meet and ill show u

i dont see how the emanage could shut off the fuel pump unles you wired a relay into it directly or something.....and why you would ever want to do such a thing is beyond me

ok, so, what about the coil issue? can someone clarify this? as someone already ask:
"[i][i]Anyone get the greddy ignition signal adapter to prevent the frying coil syndrome? I will be installing the emanage soon and im wondering if i should get extra coils lol.. ne one had any issues with the coils other than brandon??"

There has been known issues with the emange and its ignition feature. It messed up my v6 and eats coil packs on the i4. Get the evo ecu or ems

i have not lost a coil and i constantly leave the key on the on position... my coils are not heating up or overheating as of yet atleast.. i did however purchase the ignition signal adapter #2 for 4 cyls that u put inline with the ignition wires so.. I have been able to see the timing actually working because its retarded a lot and i get 13 to 15 degrees where its retarding the most so... i would normally get more than on a run because i logged before turbo and was getting over 20 easy so...

ive never had trouble with my coils either... you might want to double and triple check your wiring
