Why do you need an EMS?

What mods do you have?

Hmm.. quite an expensive upgrade for minimal results.

I am thinking about selling my greddy emanage blue. It's a MUCH cheaper ($300) solution for the n/a guys who want a little more HP.

It came with the Greddy turbo kit so I have no idea what it will add in N/A form.

I am sure there is more info on the board somewhere to help you out because this has been done before many times already.

I am not selling my whole turbo kit, just the "Greddy emanage blue" and harness for $300.

I am selling my emangae ultimate it would give you a little more control over the car but once again you will have to have it tuned for your N/A 8 because it is tuned for a turboed 8....if you are interesting PM me I'll send you pics and we'll talk about a resonable price for the emanage Ultimate and a Plug and Play wiring harness this don't have the dongles hangin out everywhere
