Hi SPX3.
Who did you get to fit n tune your EMU?
Do you know if EMU can handle 2001+ VVT?

http://www.trust-power.com/overseas/products.htmlNB8C's have vvt right?
and yeah where did you get yours tuned?
i got a quote from croydon racing developments for an emu, fitted and tuned for $1500, this sound decent?
in the previous autosaloon magazine, they got an extra 10kw atw from a stock dc5, if i can get something like that, i would be happy
i looked around on ebay (u.s) & got a unused 2nd hand unit (lots of people buy greddy turbo kits but dont use the ecu) that cost me around the $500 dollar mark (cant remember exact price but i do have a thread on it somewhere) from there i went onto the boom slang website & ordered a PLUG & PLAY loom $230 (i think), pretty much that easy !!! i also bought a wide band so i could do my own tuning. by the end of it it has all cost me just over a grand but thats also including things like pressure sensors & O2 clamps for the turbo,
& how does it work u ask ???
really well, it can get interesting as your setting up the software depending on your lap top, mine took a while to find all the right drivers & so forth, yet my mrs one was plug & play, BUT one you get it working its unreal, you have timing control, & full fuel control up or down...... & with the wide band installed you can do your own tunning !!!
im 98% tuned now with 3 plays with the laptop (tuning the avo turbo kit) & i only have a couple of cells which are hard to capture on the street, so i will now be looking at a new clutch & putting it on a dyno, but that should not be a lot of work at all & i'll also start playing with my timing a i have it very safe for now, in saying that im still using ulp on 6psi & it goes hard with no pinging...
so all in all im really happy with the emu & really feel for the people that spend twice as much to do the same task
