Hey guys, I have a Greddy E-manage blue sitting in my room that I bought for another car which I sold to get the S2000. I know this topic has been beat to death, but should I even bother installing it and tuning it? My current mods to the car are K&N drop in filter, ebay header/test pipe, and Buddy Club Spec3 single. I know the car runs pig rich as the soot on my bumper will prove it. I am not looking to street race or make big power in N/A form. I daily the car and will track it next year at my local road course just for the driving experience.

Does the emanage make that big of a difference in response and power?

The area that I live has pretty dramatic climate changes through out the year. Will it have to be re tuned for the winter and summer?

Will the partial maps be over ridded like the vafc?


Thanks for any input guys, I am just making sure that this would even be a worth while of an install.

Based on the fact that you arent looking for a big n/a moster power, i say give it a shot. IF your s2000 is indeed runing rich you will definitely benefit from the emanage blue, since you can lean it out in WOT. Difference in power? this depends on how rich you are runing, the VAFC(which is similar to the blue) shows gains on alot of s2000's(5+rwhp). Your tuner will be able to tune your car so its safe both in winter temps and summer temps. I'm not sure about the partial maps but my guess would be yes your tune will be overridden by the factory computer except in WOT which the computer uses a fixed fuel map.

thanks guy, any one else have some input on these. How hard are they to tune yourself on the street?
