Lend me your ears fellow E-manage owners!!!!! I haven't contacted GReddy about the ignition setup for a while because I know it takes companies a LONG time to take on small projects. But I contacted them last week sometime. I just got an email back:

We have found that with the latest version of the e-Manage update (available through our Authorized GReddy Dealers) you can make adjustments the the Honda DIS ignition systems. We are successfully using them on all of our RSX and Civic Si turbo kits with great success. For more information please contact your Authorized GReddy Dealer. http://greddy.com/dealers/

Now whether or not all you other people still want to go with the SAFC or not, it's your choice. But know that for $300 and a $30 ignition harness... The E-manage now controls:
-Ignition Timing
-Larger Injectors
-Extra Injectors
-Voltage Clamp
-Air Flow Adjustment
-VTEC engagement
All on their own separate maps

Pay close attention to IGNITION TIMING lol.

Just thought I'd let you all in on the GREAT news.

RAW news man... SOOO nice to hear... i just want it to be an ACTUALLY part number for my car before i order...
gotta be EXTRA carefull with those things...

 
Rep Power: 0

There won't be a part number though. The E-manage and all it's add-ons are completely universal to all Japanese cars.

so do they have an ingition harness for our cars??

 
Rep Power: 0

Yeah... THE ignition harness lol. There is only one. I'll draw up the real diagrahm for it when I get my car back. The shop has my Factory Service Manual.

Who has the best prices on the e-manage?

I got my stuff from Mohd Parts You can get packages on there. The guy is awesome for customer service. And definately knows his stuff about the E-manage. He helped me out alot. Ships quick too.

so can any greddy dealer just give u the diagram

 
Rep Power: 0

The diagram is in the GReddy Support Tool manual. You can find it on the internet probably too. I meant... our car specific diagram... for ECU locations.

In general though: It would be like the upper left "6 cylinder individual ignition", but we only would use 4 channels instead of 6.

Those of you running the e-Manage, have you been getting the P1128 dtc code? The cause is "MAP voltage too low" or something like that. I'm not sure what the workaround is. I know that other users with newer Hondas get that too. Any ideas?

I also get P1106 BARO code frequently.

 
Rep Power: 0

C2i0v0i1c gets the code for the MAP, I'm sure I will too. On the clamp map... we should probably adjust the clamp so that it resembles stock. But I don't know what that is. Maybe an SAFC user might be able to tell, but I don't know if that thing gives a voltage readout.

 
Rep Power: 0

We tried adjusting the voltage clamp to address the MAP code but the car runs like crap. So you can keep the stock ECU happy and have the car run like crap, or you could just reset your ECU all the time to clear the MAP code.

There must be a better solution and I'm sure GReddy knows it. Afterall, they use the e-Manage in their RSX turbo kit, and I'm sure whatever the solution is on the RSX it'll work for us.

Just that their tech support is near non-existent.

 
Rep Power: 584

greddy obviously knows what they are doing, they give you the run around though on inquiring, i emailed them and got a answer on tuesday and then boosted here shows us a email that says totally the opposite of my replied email, they wanted me to send them a stock ecu diagram and stuff so the can make one, i only get the p1128 code at start up when the motor is cold, but once it warms up it doesnt do it and i can run it like hell. this is why i want boosted's emanage program, hell if ne one else has one send it my way, we are going to look at all of the ones i can get from whoever and see if we can merge and get the best of all worlds, i do reset my ECU all the time when the light kicks on, other wise i cant get into boost but for more than 2 seconds and then it throws the code again. if u all know eddie kim of dynamic autosports, hes been losing sleep over my car, hes been working on getting a diagram to work and diagnosticing the car over the phone.

If anyone finds a solution to this P1128 issue, please do tell! I will as well.

I'm not sure what the deal is with my P1106 BARO code.

Anyways, there's a fix to everything... eventually.

 
Rep Power: 584

what does BARO stand for

 
Rep Power: 0

BARO is just short for barometric. The P1108 code description is "Baro circuit voltage low out of range" or something like that. When you go through the Honda handbook to diagnose, you learn that it's referring to the barometric pressure sensor.

I haven't done enough research yet, but my mechanic says relocating the baro sensor will solve it.

Anyone have any insight on cause or solution?

Can anyone Direct me 2 a man that has base map for 2004 Civic for greddy emanage on 5 psi

 
Rep Power: 252

the baro code is due to key on and the map reading a wrong voltage. Easy fix your local tuner should be able to fix it in a matter of mins.

 
Rep Power: 252

I guess I can expalin it alittle more. On a map/Fuel table on your zero rpm when you have your key to the on postion your map sensor reads a voltage and if you have too big of a change on your fuel table you can throw that code. Has nothing to due with a faulty sensor and system. If that was the case you would be in limp mode.

^ i dont think he cares anymore, this thread is 4 years old.

 
Rep Power: 262

But I do!!!! I get that friggin code all the time.....I'll try what chris suggests and see what happens. I don't have a wideband yet so I really don't know if I wanna mess with the tune @ all right now.

Tighten up your injector correction factor. I wrote a thread on here bout 4 years ago regarding this.

 
Rep Power: 262

When you say tightened up.....are you refering to narrowing down my fuel @ idle?

 
Rep Power: 281

No he means go to parameter settings in emanage where you setup the correction factor since EX injectors are 240cc and rsx type s is 310cc he means tighten it up like 240-280 or 270-310. Our ecu's don't like too much variation from stock spec so there's alot of smoothing and playing to be done with emanage. As you can see this is why running large injectors like srt4 are such a pain to get to idle. It can be done but like I said lot's of smoothing and playing to be done which can be a tuning nightmare.

 
Rep Power: 0

Correct. If you datalog on the e-mangle the MAP input signal and the MAP output signal you can see what the e-manage is pulling out of the MAP sensor. Typically from my obvservation, the ECU does not like more than a .07V variation.

 
Rep Power: 262

oh ok, I understand...The piggyback is fighting with the ecu, probably reason for my misfires @ idle aswell. I'll play it with some tonight. Although I'll be tightening up the correction factor with that, will that max out my duty cycle, I am afterall tellin the emanage I have smaller injectors? I noticed when I did a couple datalog runs with my laptop I had 96% duty cycle around 6500 rpm.

 
Rep Power: 0

For the RSX injectors, that sounds right.

 
Rep Power: 262

ok I checked my emanage when I got home.......my correction factor is set @ 210-310..........I'm gonna try a 270-310 split first..........can I severly mess up my a/f ratio's under boost by playing with this function? Will this change my duty cycle? Just takin some precautionairy steps, I don't have an a/f gauge yet.

stop, drop, and roll! why would you play with your tune if you have NO way to judge the changes you make other than seat dyno!
