ya today i upped my boost not to 10 or 12 like i said but i stopped at 8 .pulls better..(need a new boost gauge the one i have starts bouncing like crazy and i think i max out at 8psi but don't know if its the gauge or something else {do y'all guys have that problem??} ) its a really cheap gauge....

just thinking to my self if its worth buying a Emanage just to take it to 12 psi?? or should i just leave it ?? i dont want to buy 700$ pistons and what not.

but I've been looking in to this Emanage <looks very pricey> but i was reading the Manuel and it says it adjust fuel +-20% did i read it right? hows that going to work? i have some supra injectors........i think their 36% larger then stock ....i guess i could use a walbro pump but i dont think that'll help right now ....just a waste

so let me get this right...
main unit - 380$
ign. harness - 40
program cd with cable( i guess 4 the laptop) 140
what else do i need? so i guess like a 3bar map will tell when i'm in boost? or what?


and is it hard to tune it?

thanks 4 your help

From what I read in your post, you make it sound like you're running Supra injectors and stock fuel pump.....if I'm understanding you correctly then you need to get that new fuel pump pronto and make sure you have some sort of fuel management in place to control it all. Cheaping out on anything will land you where I'm sure you don't want to be.....with a blown motor and zero PSI.

That sounds to me why you felt that it ran better at 8 PSI rather than 10-12....you're probably running dangerously lean. Fix it ASAP.

honestly...from your posts, it sounds like your going to blow your motor any day now.

getting an emanage isint going to help you at all if you dont have the proper injectors, fuel pump and not to mention a wideband or some dyno time. a good understanding of how all these things work is also a must.

im not trying to be rude, but its just the vibe i get from reading your posts.

BTW, if you're running a 7AFE turbo setup you NEED to use some sort of oil restrictor, pre-turbo, otherwise you'll be replacing turbos left and right due to the oil pressure being far too high and you'll be smoking like crazy from that mofo.

Take Art's advice and do it right. Proper tuning and a solid well-built setup is the only way to make it last.

i never went to past 8psi...

"I'm using a first gen safc"

only get fuel cut when I'm trying to max out the inj. at every rpm interval.

i had a oil restrictor from ATP (bunch of scamers working there) it broke cheap ass brass had it on for like 6 months. someone know another company that sells them?

autometer has a fitting called a nitrous restrictor, you can redrill to the size you need.. but its still going to be brass. dont over tighten it

you can also take a steel AN fitting, and fill it with weld, or solder and drill it to the appropriate size.
