I live in Tampa. I took my car to Pettit and this was what happened:

You are actually a lot closer to Largo (Just south of Tampa), which is where Mazsport resides. They sell the interceptor-x and can get your car running without any issues you now see with the emanage blue. I would highly recommend upgrading the fuel management system.

Thanks for the warning. Will keep that in mind. This MAZSPORT do you have the address for them? Another thing is, I got the ignition cables for the eManage and colder plugs (5255 mentioned on a post) would this help and make the eManage worth keeping? for normal 6psi boosting? I am not really looking for much boost, I am thinking about making the AT RX8 (my gf) a 20b..

The temp dropped here in Orlando, FL and I actually got my 1st CEL!! WOOHOO! It read 2 codes: 1-System Too Rich and 2-Catalyst Below something? (I had my catalyst removed, do I need to unplug the O2 sensor after the catalyst?)

Yes, thats the two I repeatedly get.

Here's mazsport's website. They have their address and contact info listed:

Emanage Blue is a piece of **** and it is not worth keeping PERIOD. Get Interceptor-X and enjoy the ride.

I agree, emanage blue is not very good. The int-x is excellent, especially so since you're local to Tampa and can get Scott to tune it.
