Installed my e-Manage today and...

Wow.

For cheaper than a VAFC it's wayyyy better.
The ignition timing is good to have, plus the fuel management is a lot more precise. At first it was kind of scary, but youll like it.

The install was pretty tough, wiring a whole bunch of ECU wires in a VERY tight spot was pretty scary but it all worked out.

I wired the ignition and injector harness set it to 4-8-C and the car runs perfect. I didn't wire the VTEC, but it still runs like a champ.

Perfect idle, runs great under load, no check engine lights...

the only problem I had was taht the e-Manage threw the VTEC input error code(Cause VTEC wasn't hooked up), anyone know how I can bypass that?

Aside from that everything worked out great, special thanks to Opto, Dezod, and C20, and a few others!

Save your $$ now. If you getting our kit, it's included.

Yes it's a piggyback fuel unit that is much more powerful than the V-AFC2.


BTW is your sig intended toward me?

work on me with this)"

haha... no... it wasnt intended for you... the intention of "work on me with this" has 2 meanings but i coudnt fit it all.... first meaning is financialy and willingness to buy.. second is i aint no genious.. especially with the 7th gens.. i have had a boosted 98 before and that was a pain in the butt but it seems like that was nothing compared to what the 7th gens have to go through to gt boosted.. seems like a nightmare

oh yea.. i forgot.. i dont know if you remember or not but i did a head swap to add vtec to my dx engine..which means that i needed the vafc2 to supply the vtec signal to the head since i didnt do an ecu swap and that stuff.. with that in mind does that mean i can still use the vafc2 to control the vtec and still run the emanage OR can the emanage run the signal to my head as well?
