Jake Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 the E01 isn't the be all and end all Yeah but it's a really goos boost controller and display. And I've already got one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 It's still gonna work as a boost controller You haven't got an E-Manage at the moment anyway have you? -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 It's still gonna work as a boost controller Yeah true. You haven't got an E-Manage at the moment anyway have you? No. I was waiting to see how it worked out with the e-MU. I'm still considering AEM and MoTeC as well but I would be happy with the e-MU if it fulfils its potential.

Ian C Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 It's bloody cold outside thanks! I've just finished tucking everything away in the footwell but the snow precludes further testing -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BURT Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Any more news on this yet, how you getting on with this fella, Am seriously considering Autronic or motec, but if this works well it could be in the running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Just been reading through this post, interesting! so is the general consensus that the Ultimate works on the Supra? I had a very annoying experience with the Ultimate on my Silvia, i had run the blue emanage very successfully for 18 months, then ordered an Ultimate only to find that it caused a misfire! after a lot of fafing about and a total waste of time trying to get some sort of sensible response from Greddy:swear: i gave up and sent it back! the problem was never successfully diagnosed, initially i thought it was a problem with the fueling settings, but in the end found it was something in the timing settings that caused the misfire, no adjustment no misfire! the last update i used was 08-08 which just added a couple more problems! like losing laptop connection randomly! i even tried a friends ultimate with the same result! so all in all i'm pretty disappointed and disheartened, as i really like the blue emanage and thought the Ultimate was going to be the next best thing to a stand alone ECU.

BURT Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Just thought i'd give this a bump Ian, we all know your the man for this, so hows it going? snow cleared yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Yeah, snow has cleared I've got a good cold start, a good idle (both of these way better than the Blue ever did) feels good to drive, no overfuelling... I haven't datalogged much in the way of on-boost operations yet but I will. I'm confident in the product now. It adds fuel OK and controls the timing OK, much like the blue. It will pull injector duty but I haven't messed with that much yet. It won't do the ignition based launch control as the 2JZ ECU hates it, I think it'll raise the rev limit, that's what I'm primarily fiddling with now. I think I started with this at just the right time as it's only just been noticed that the 2JZ needs the injector adapter #2, and also it needs the 1.09 firmware to work properly otherwise I found it was rough as a bag of nails and fuelled oddly. I guess it was rushed out... -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLicense Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 What would be the chance of someone with an e-manage to log the base setting of the J-spec ECU? I'd be VERY interested to see what a std ignition table looked like. Not so much the fuel table, but that would be interesting to see also. Is this possible? (I guess log the fuel/ignition with all the adjustments in the e-manage set to zero???) Cheers, Tony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The E-manage starts off with an ignition map full of zeros and you simply add or subtract from the stock settings. A datalog without adjustment will simply show unaltered timing, zero's.

TLicense Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 ahh poo. So how do you know what the total timing is? Or does it just tell you what you've added? That sounds a bit dangerous. You could be running massively advanced and not know it, as all you'll know is that you've added 5 degrees of timing or whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The eManage Ultimate logs ACTUAL ignition advance... Ian might with time be able to work it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TLicense Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Ahh OK, so this is one of the differences between the blue and the ultimate? Sorry I must admit, I am pretty much completely e-manage ignorant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 The Blue you could add or remove up to 20deg of timing and the datalogs would only show what timing you've added or removed, not what the actual resultant timing was. The Ultimate datalogs your correction amount and the actual resultant timing. Although sometimes it gets confused and datalogs 180deg out. I'm sure I never ran 200deg advance It also datalogs the stock duty cycle and duration, and the resultant duty cycle and duration that you actually run after your corrections have been factored in. And it datalogs the %age amount of adjustment going on. The datalogging has come on a looooong way over the Blue. If you had an E-Manage Ultimate on a stock car you could datalog the injector durations and timing for whatever load scenarios you throw at it. My datalogs are compromised on that front because I'm pulling airflow signal so probably not much use. It runs about 22deg of advance when I'm on boost and about 25 when off boost if that helps. -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 My datalogs are compromised on that front because I'm pulling airflow signal so probably not much use. Have you got any plans to change that now you can subtract fuel in the injector thingy with the Ultimate? I guess since you've got a good map anyway it'd be a hassle, but I guess it would be much better to not fudge the airflow and adjust fueling with the injector table only?

Ian C Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Yeah, spot on - I figured that I'd get my Blue map working first, to see what the unit behaved like compared to old one. Once I'm more comfortable with the map and I've fiddled with all the new bells and whisltes I'll probably aim at using the injector control a lot more. I may be able to get away with no airflow adjustment, I may not. Depends on a few things. When it gets warmer I might be experimenting more -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLicense Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 so is the idea that this is a good unit now and it is working ok I've no doubt that it's been a good unit since day one. It's just people learning what extra components are required and learning how to map it that takes time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think its more a case of it potentially being a good unit, BUT Greddy not having the software finished for the launch! i think its only now that they are beginning to catch up, but there are still a lot of models that the software is not sorted for yet.
