hondata vs. e-manage

[riotfish]

what's the advantage of one over the other...i'm going to turbo my car this summer and was thinking about just getting the GReddy kit since it comes with e-manage.

Hondata > E-Mangage

E-manage ultimate is not a bad system but the Hondata is cheaper, more powerful and more precise

 

[riotfish]

makes sense i guess...since hondata is made specifically for hondas

if you change your mind this week, i have one on ebay with a reserve of 400.

ah cool man, nah only reason i was gonna get e-manage was because it came with the GReddy turbo kit...looks like i'm gonna find another decent kit and get hondata or just piece together a kit.

Piecing a good kit together FTW!

 

[riotfish]

yea thats what people keep sayin. i got till july, august before i plan on getting the parts so i have a while to find out wat i want.

 

[heykosal]

Hondata + pieced together = best

 

[riotfish]

and as far as electronics go, all i need is hondata?

 

[dc2GS-R]

Depends. If your car is OBD2 you will need an OBD1 ECU and jumper harness. A laptop is also a good investment if you want to do any tuning or datalogging yourself.

ah i think my car is OBD2, i do have a laptop though...wat programs do you use?
