michael Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 I need something to help sort out the fuelling on my car, hopefully to give me a bit more 'go' and maybe help the MPG too. The SAFC II was the one I fancied (12 point mapping rather than the 8 of the earlier version) but I was wondering what other similar products are around for sensible money. I've been advised to try a few things like the UniChip (possible to control fuelling but it won't do timing on a Supra) but it seems like overkill for my needs. Any suggestions?

dandan Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 How about the Greddy E-manage? With the right harnesses (not expensive) it'll do fuel and ignition and I think it has more potential than an SAFC ever will. It still acts as a piggyback but afaik it's not quite as much of a fudge as the SAFC. I think Cliff was looking into them, and I have some info somewhere, I'll post the link when I find it...

MONKEYmark Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 michael does it need upgrading? thought uk cars were pretty sorted. have you had it checked out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Walker Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 I'm thinking of doing a group buy on the Emanage, I can get some exceptional deals on them at the mo. Anyone interested? Gaz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 1, 2004 Author Share Posted February 1, 2004 Originally posted by MONKEYmark michael does it need upgrading? thought uk cars were pretty sorted. have you had it checked out The problem isn't that I need to sort the fuelling out because I don't have enough, it's just a case of having too much - what I want to do is lean it out a bit in places to unleash a bit more power. The Thor Graph shows the most recent AFM stuff, Pete suggested that looking at this could give me a bit more midrange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Link updated to right one! http://www.mohdparts.com/emanage/photos/emanage_photos/index.html I'd always thought it was an expensive ECU so never really paid much attention, from looking at the link you provided I can see they are fairly cheap and well featured too.... definately a possible! I guess the hardest bit is finding someone who knows how to get the best out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dandan Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 I'm "interested" for sure, but can't commit fully at the moment, any idea on timescale? Any ideas on costs Gaz for the different parts (ecu, harnesses etc) with/without the group buy option? Thanks Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soonto_HAS_soop Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 I'd be in on a group buy for this and all the harnesses, especially at the "exceptional" rate. Was looking at getting the SAFC II at some point, but this looks like it could be better. Just need someone who can set it up properly.....?? Ben..

veilsideTT Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Need 10 units ordered basically but I can do a good price on that, and all the accessories (harnesses, boost controllers, remote switch etc) Gaz. Are you saying that these not only controll fuel but they can also controll boost? I,e, Raise the boost on my decated UK Spec? From how the write up reads it only talks about Boost sensing?

Gaz mate, the E-Manage doesn't have a boost controller feature or a "remote switch" whatever that is Also, are you sure Pete betts has mapped one of these units before? I'm not saying he hasn't but I know his first one was going to be Cliffs and that hasn't happened yet AFAIK. Don't get me wrong, if he's got experience now it makes my life easier -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 1, 2004 Author Share Posted February 1, 2004 I know HyperSR have a fair bit of experience of these if any northern types are put off by a lack of tuners in the area. I'm interested, as usually it all depends on price though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dandan Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Ian Remote switch: http://www.mohdparts.com/emanage/photos/profec_e-01_photos/DSC05808.JPG Boost controller and emanage programmer: http://www.mohdparts.com/emanage/photos/profec_e-01_photos/e01.JPG This negates the need for a laptop for mapping the emanage and doubles as a boost controller and display. Not sure who has/hasn't mapped one yet. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong, if he's got experience now it makes my life easier -Ian Ian, The E-manage hasn't directly got boost controller as you know - I was referring to the E-01 controller which can hookup to the Emanage to act as a display/control and also the remote overboost switch etc. I might have the wrong end of the stick with Pete, I cant remember if he said done or about to do.

Ian C Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Oh, yes, of course, the Profec, sorry mate, I didn't think of that as I had discounted it when I was working out what bits I wanted I hope Pete has some experience in them -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick_TC Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Just beware there is the E-01 and the Profec E-01, ones just the display unit, ones the display unit and boost controller (just saying as i got sent the wrong one first) And the remote switching thingy is so you can flick between 3 boost settings at a touch of a button IIRC.

Tannhauser Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Hi. Re: Pete and e-manage mapping I now have the greddy e-manage and all accessories (remote switch, profec etc). Though I do plan to have Pete do the mapping, this won't be for a few months yet. Before this, I have to get my fuel delivery sorted and my single turbo. And I won't buy the single turbo kit I have in mind until Wez the Intrepid has fitted his and I'm sure it's OK. I'm got those already-bought-one-and-there-now-could-be-a group-buy-with-exceptional-discounts blues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Gaz Please put me down as an "interested" with any group buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael Posted February 6, 2004 Author Share Posted February 6, 2004 Gaz, how many "interested" people do you need before giving a green light and some prices on the group buy? Some of the MR2 chaps are talking about them too so maybe they could up the numbers a little? I'm keen to get one pretty soon so I'd appreciate it if you could let me know if this is likely to go ahead or not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
