    NO. get hondata s300..You will come out cheaper. Either way you will still have to pay for dyno time.

    Greddy e manage = $350
    Harness = $200-300 depending on what all you want
    Wiring it up = $0-$5000 depending on if you know what you are doing to completely FUC|<|NG up your car hence the price of the whole car.

    So do the math and dont' try to take shortcut, this is one game you dont' want to take a shortcut in. You will end up spending twice the money, twice the time and twice the frustrations.

    +1 !!!!! Just get the s300 and be done with it. You'll be happy with it. And if you decide to change anything, it is all wide open. Some of the s200's you had to and still have to pay to unlock some of the features. s300 is for the win. Its wide open like aem, etc...... And it doesnt take long to tune!!!! Its the right way. Ed @ Balance is the one that tunes all my setups. No low blows to any of the other tuners out there or in here, but Ed is who i recommend to everyone.

    EManage= the suck. I have emanage on my s13 and it was without a doubt the worst investment ive evermade. I would just get me ecu rom tuned for the modifications that you have and save up and get apexi power fc or something. I have also had problems with my emanage communicating with laptops and had to send one back because of that.

    give me a call. afc hack actually runs a lot more advance at low boost than it does at higher boost and if you have a turbo that spools quickly w/ little throttle position you will be boosting lean because of the o2 feedback and stoich conditions.

    if you're going to run the afc hack you'll need a timing control like an msd btm and by the time you've spent the $ on the afc, btm, install, and tuning you've spent more than you would on a chipped ecu and tuning.

    chipped p28 and tuning can be the same or cheaper and full control of fuel/timing than the afc is.

    EManage SUCKS.

    Get a CromE PRO ECU and Dyno tune it.

    Any boosted car takes 2-3 hours to have it done correctly. if thats too rich for you, dont boost your car

    he has a point. just get a stand alone get it tuned right and you have to worry about it again.

    ^^^ listen to them. Piggy backs in general just are not that great. Stand alone or rom tuned ecu is the way to go.

    good idea it doesnt matter wether it 1 psi or 500 psi either way you need to tune

    tuning is the key to ANY turbo setup. It doesnt matter if its ron tune, piggyback standalone, or by ear(lmao). tuning is going to be the determining factor if your car is going to still be running in a month or even a year from now so choose very wisely your engine/fuel management setup.
    +1 for rom tuning and standalones
    stay away from piggybacks if you can afford it!
