Don

I am thinking of a greddy Eo-1 so I can install e-manage system also
No, the Greddy Profec B Spec II does not tie into the ECU (PCM). It's not tuning software. Basicly it's a electro-mechanical device (the solenoid) controlled by a electronic controller that varies the amount of bleed going to your WGA. An electronic boost controller (EBC) helps to smooth out the part-throttle boost (PTB) that you will see with a MBC (Manual Boost Controller).

I do have a Psi-Fi Power-Paq but have not installed it yet. It will do similar tuning as E-manage. The reason I choose the PPQ is because I'm not a tuner (yet). The PPQ comes with a loaded MAP already set up with the mods I have on my car, basically I just wire everything into place and drive the car. To fine tune the MAP I would need to plug in a laptop and tune it...but the MAP supplied is already tuned to probably 85-90% efficiency for my Cruiser. The E-manage and similar software have to be tuned by someone that have good tuning basics before you can use it. So your either have to pay a tuner to set it up
or your going to be experimenting with your Cruiser which could get ugly and expensive if you do not tune it right.
Anyone out there with better experiance in this can jump in any time because I'm definetly not an expert when it comes to the various software tuning devices...
