How much does Canzoomer/Emanage and Tuning add?

Well, I don't think I'm going to go with a turbo until later down the line. $5000 for an addition of around only 50-70HP isn't worth it to me, so I'll probably go with a Canzoomer/Emanage and tuning it.

I talked to a guy at a shop today, and he said that I need something that will control the A/F ratio, timing, and all that stuff, the emanage and canzoomer will do this correct? He then said he will tune it on his dyno (taking about an hour or so) and he said I'll see around 15-17HP to the wheels.

For those who have these, what was your addition of HP after tuning?

How much does the Canzoomer/emanage cost and do I need to buy anything else? Are you able to tell the difference and is it worth the money in order to hold me off until my warranty expires for me to get a turbo.

If you tune it right, it is worth the $.

canzoomer hit about 250whp on the gtec on a verrrry dangerous tune...pretty safely you can get about 20hp out of it

Depends on the car that you have. Out of the box the averages of our cars are all over the place. from an average of 170 to 190 whp. Most people who have getten the CZ are getting about 16-20 whp. With other mods you can get to about 200 whp (from 170 whp). If you are already one of the lean running ones then you may not see as much difference.

from 173 to 202 at the wheels. Using my customized tune. Same dyno different day. So these numbers might be a little high.

Pretty much can get it at only one place : www.canzoomer.com. Stage 1 = mild tune, stage 2 = aggressive tune, Stage 3 controller = multiple maps. Most people though tune the maps to their cars, so it really doesn't matter whether you get stage 1 or 2, you can adjust it to function optimally for your particular car with the software package & CanScan tool.

Canzoomer has a hi-flow unit that is made to withstand the incresed heat. Either get that or get the straightpipe (which won't pass emssions though).
