Here's a link to the new eManage Ultimate. I can't read Japanese though. If you run it through bablefish, you'll get a jumbed pile of workds that need serious interpretation. Although I couldn't see any mention of it in the bablefish translation, this new eManage is rumored to be able to do maf to map sensor conversion which would allow you to get rid of the maf sensor entirely in favor of a pressure based map sensor. Does anyone have any other info on this? Maybe someone who lives in Japan with an inside scoop? If this rumor is indeed true, it could prove to be a product to watch for. It would be very interesting if we could get around the maf on the RX-8. Not sure if we can or not but one can still dream.

Thanks for the interpritation

Wonder if the guys who have the older E-manage system can get the LATEST ultimate features upgraded to their E-manage

cheers

It is very close to the Motec... only if they can do the leading the trailing seperately...

If they supplied you with program to tune it then it will be perfect.

 

Well... it says that ti comes with the PC CD-ROM... I can only assume that this is for tuning.

I doubt that the older e-manage can be upgraded in an of itself.... you can get the adpater harness and plug it into your e-manage wiring though...

 

it looks pretty, RotaryGod where did you hear about it being able to do the maf to map conversion? that would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet. hehe oh well guess i'll dream about it.

any rumor on when this will be released in the states? i saw this on disply in a magazine that had the TAS 2005 (i believe).

 

does anyone have any more information on the emanage ultimate?

Just wondering... I just got my RX and was about to buy a CZ but if this is coming out soon then I'll wait a while before I figure out what piggy back is going to run my car... (turbo or SC in the future)

 

The emanage ultimate now lists on the US Greddy site.

As I've been on a ECU binge as of late, I decided to call greddy and find out how this unit differs from the regular emanage system and if they are testing it on the RX8 for use with the turbo kit among others.

The good news is that they were literally testing it on the 8 on the dyno when I called. Mazda lent them a car for the week, so they will have results by friday.

As Kenji(sp) explained rather than fool the ECU through the MAF sensor, it takes the stock signals and runs them through the ultimate box first, allowing you to alter the fuel and timing among other things. I'm going to guess it has a way of putting the car into some sort of virtual mode so the car thinks everything is fine. It does not control throttle or DBW.

It will be interesting to see how this shakes out, as Greddy has a close relationship with Mazda and I'm sure wants a real solution to the RX8 ECU wows. With this they can offer a higher HP version I would think. While I don't think much of the regular emanage for the RX8, this could offer the FI folks a cheaper alternative to other ECU units. I'm not sure how well it will work for NA tuning.

The more options the better.

 

I would love to see the Greddy Ultimate do what we are looking for, But does anyone believe that this can be acomplished with a price tag around $ 550.00.. THe Mazsport seems to have the kind of control we are looking for , at around $ 1,700.00 That's more than 3 times the cost of the Ultimate...

It still looks like You Get What You Pay For...

 

I hope greddy will redo their first kit and tune it with the emanage ultimate.

 

cz folks can get their units upgraded to the gold version for a few bucks as well

 

As far as I'm concerned, the more options available to the public, the better.

 

I hope it all works out. I'm glad I didn't spend my money on the E-manage or CZ. I'll wait for the Ultimate.

 

I have one on the way. Should be fun.

 

If you guys need any we are selling them for 515 shipped. In stock.

That is a good price. I paid about $15 more for mine.

 

Well, mine is here. I will try to install it tonight before I pack everything up for the last time before the big move the Phoenix later in the fall.

 

keep us posted mm!

 

Hey Jeff,

I'm debating between the Interceptor and the Ultimate, so your review will be greatly appreciated. I have placed on my wish list this wideband controller for tuning my NA setup:

The Innovate LC-1 Wideband Controller & XD-1 Programmable Digital Gauge, Bosch 5-wire Wideband 02 Sensor, Bung/Plug Kit, Software CD, and owners manual.

Do you think this would be a good controller for tuning and setting up the Ultimate to chash an AFR? I'm worried about the Interceptor taking away the knock retard feature of the OEM ECU. I really do not want to rely on a flashing CEL to telll me I'm pinging.

Good luck with the move, I'm doing the same myself. :D

 

why not just upgrade your cz (assuming you still have it) to the gold setup for free... which can also chase an afr with a seperate O2 sensor

 

Can you upgrade the blue emanage to the gold?
