Pete Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 I can't say I notice the difference, but then I'm psychologically thinking it's all marketing bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

affney Posted September 26, 2006 Author Share Posted September 26, 2006 how much does it cost to get a mapped ecu and how much difference does it make to the car i used to have a nissan 200sx and that went up by almost 50 bhp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitesupraboy2 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 no point unless you go above 450hp id say id be interested to get mine dyno'd as im on stock turbo's at BPU with a mapped emanage.

lockys96 Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 i could do with any power with a poor 304hp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I preferred the smell of Optimax. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoboblio Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 You're not supposed to drink it Ian. Try creosote instead - lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I've noticed no difference and with the cooler weather the car is drinking more fuel anyway. It's cheap though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren-K Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 How much is this stuff? roughley compared to optimax? its basically an improved optimax mate but yeh i seem to get more grunt from it too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 id be interested to get mine dyno'd as im on stock turbo's at BPU with a mapped emanage. Be good to see if there is any benefit. The emanage made a noticeable difference on mine running stock turbos. Well worth fitting even on a BPU Supra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
how_supra Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 I definately getting more MPG after driving steady the other week. Managed almost 500 miles in my FTO which usually does around 400 miles on a £63 tank I haven't noticed any difference in performance however. Whether you buy it or not, I like it.
