emanage questions

I just got done isntalling and tuning a greddy emange with a profec e01 in a project shop car *toyota turboed mrs* and they have wiring diagrams to hook them up in the FD, I was curious can the emanage do anything on the fd? Also, can it handel the larger injectors.. primary and secondary..? Any info would be appreciated.

The E-manage will work on an FD. Biggest problem is getting around fuel cut. At the end of the day, with the E-manage and all the options, you're damn close to buying a PowerFC which is FAR more capable, doesn't have 3000 RPM hesitation issues, etc.

I own/moderate the E-manage mailing list (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/emanage), and I'm a big fan of the E-manage. The PowerFC just makes it hard to justify one for an FD. They're really slick computers, however.

The E-manage can really only scale up injector size to a certain percent - 1600cc in the secondaries would get really tricky.

Fuel cut is also a problem - you'd have to use a fuel cut defender of some kind, then use the injector harness to directly add pulsewidth to the injectors, since you wouldn't be able to tune with the MAP sensor past a certain point. It's also possible that if you scale the MAP sensor's signal around to compensate for larger injectors you end up moving your timing all over creation, which could be Not Good.

I don't know if I'd try running a big single or anything that agressive with the E-manage - you'd need to run additional injectors to supply enough fuel, but timing maps would get really tricky. But, the E-manage does totally work with the FD3S's ECU, and it's likely possible. Just not as simple/clean/elegant as the PowerFC.

http://www.mohdparts.com/emanage also has tons of info, a link to the FAQ, the newest firmware, etc.

emanage and FC

How is fuel-cut handled on an FC3S using the e-manage?

You get a fuel cut defender. Or, if you have the E-01 with the external signal harness, you can actually use that as an FCD.

Fuel cut is a problem with the E-manage when the primary input for the fuel injection system (MAP sensor, MAF, whatever) is what the ECU uses to determine fuel cut. The FC is different - fuel cut is determined by the boost sensor, not the airflow meter. This lets you clamp the boost sensor's output and still have lots of adjustability in the airflow meter's signal.
