They were off because it was a butt sniffer in the right tell pipe. I had a cat in plus little exhaust actually comes out the right side... since I new that they would not be accurate I compared everything to my base run, plus watched my injector duty cycle. I know what they run on stock computer so I was able to demise the rest. Also I was using 591cc injectors, which are good on this car for well over 350HP. They were hitting 90%+ duty cycle at times which is like using a fire truck hose on a camp fire...

yea, that could make a difference with dual exhaust....you need to weld in a bung for a wideband sensor before your exhaust splits.

nice numbers......but wat are the advantages of the emanage over the psi-fi powerpaq?? also, how much of a performance boost did you notice with the emanage? just wondering as im trying to decide on either the powerpaq/e-manage next, or turbo back exhaust and a cci frontmount.

The emanage is seperior because like all other piggybacks the powerpaq controls fuel by altering the map signal, making the stock computer add or take away fuel by making it see more or less boost then is really there. As fare as I know the emanage is the only piggyback that will allow you to clamp the map signal at a given voltage. ie mine is clamped at the voltage for 15psi. This allows for control of your timing, because the stock computer runs the timing map for that psi.

Now it also has a independent injector harness that controls fuel without altering the map signal, thus allowing a constant clamp on the map for timing.

Also if you decide to get the emanage make sure you get it form exhaust depot, you will not find better customer service and tech support

he has one, cause i installed it. however, the not so intelligent dyno operator decided to run a tailpipe module in the wrong tailpipe, after a convertor, and didnt calibrate it. the AF sheet stays pretty close to one reading, and its not accurate if it is after a convertor.

The great part is when he was strapping the car down and went to put the O2 in I asked him how bad the cat would throw things off, his answer “oh it won’t through it off at all”.

Darrel Cox and a number of big racers seem to really like the place, so as fare as I can tell if you are a big time person, and have a stand alone that does all the monitoring for you then your good to go.

I don’t know it left me sort of confused, but hey I got Darrel Cox’s phone number out of the trip...
