How do you burp the system, just run it cold with the rad cap off?

 

yeah until theres no bubbles surfacing in the overflow tank and top off as necessary

 

why is the e manage bad?

 

Well long answer short, its a piggy back rather than a reflash device. The thing is that emanage "hacks" into your factory ECU. I am unsure of the specifics, but usually piggybacks just influence the data that is being fed into the ECU to cause it to behave a certain way - you have a lot less control.

For example, you would be able to influence either the amount of fuel or the ignition timing, but not both at the same time.

On the other hand, COBB changes the stock parameters and maps directly so that you have a lot more straight-forward control.

You also do not need to modify anything for COBB, just plug it into your obd2 port. AND you can just uninstall COBB through the obd2 in 10 mins, These are pluses for most people

 

whats up kind sirs.

my bad ive been MIA.

been tryin to get the 8 fixed and also picked up a DD.

the 8 will soon be off the road

its about that time for new plugs, coils, tranny fluid, diff fluid, tires, and replacing the condenser.

oh and i have the flip up license plate holder that i wanna sell.

also got brand new all weather rx8 floor mats from mazda, the ones with the rotor and housing design.

also my black rpf1's are for sale, im gonna have to make an official thread for them soon.

 

i want the rpf1s ....... damn subies with 5x100 patterns.. fail

 

you already have rpf1's sol...what are you complaining about? lol

 

the size and offset are whack on my rpf1s

 

So you dont have to hook up the E-manage at all? Just run the cobb map from who ever tunes it? I just wanna run the car at a safe boot and just have that little extra power. I use the car everyday so im not looking to over boost and kill it or anyting, just something nice and simple.

 

What do you want for the flip up plate?

 

NOO ... Emanage goes into your ECU box wired directly into your ECU...

COBB just plugs into ur obd2 port, installs the desired maps and you can unplug it

I believe MM said that there is more than 20% variability in the needed map settings from Rx-8 to Rx-8 ...

Although running someone elses map is better than not tunning at ALL, you really need to get a tune for your car because every car is different. If there were set maps for every possible configuration, then there would not be a need for tunners. It is the fact that every car is different that creates this need.

For example, say we both have the greddy kit, same midpipe and cat-back.... the maps at which both of our cars will perform optimally will still differ quite a bit.

In addition If you are talking about getting someone else's map .... I highly doubt he/she is running your identical set-up too.

 

how is your 400 hp car doing? You likey?

 

haven't picked it up yet.... miscommunications all around, so i won't have it till thursdays

 

^Where did you have them do the work on the subie and whats under the hood now 400hp mark in a wrx is nice I was on that road in 04-05.
