I flooded myne during the install which resulted in it not starting. Is it cranking funny, as if there's no load on the engine? Try disconnecting the emanage and starting it with your old computer hooked directly up. Just don't rev it much till you plug the emanage back in. Also, try hooking up a battery jumper to make sure the battery isn't too low.

I have deflooded the car, it started with mazda ecu, bu it didnt work steady. I turned it off after 30 seconds. Thaen i tried with emanage conected, but again it wont start. This time is different, is starts for a second and then it turns off, like it dosent have enough power. Maybe the cat died or something.
Any ideas what to do?

check all your connections/vac lines and make sure there isnt a leak in the system, if there is your car wont start, or it'll start and die cause the ecu is seeing too much air, so adding too much fuel, and flooding your engine.

Are you sure you didn't flood it again by turning it off after 30sec? It is possible but unlikely that the emanage will cause a starting issue since it doesn't affect the signals until the turbo is boosting. Try deflooding it again and start it with the emanage connected.

Also check your plugs, it is possible it wasn't running right because they were partially fouled when you flooded it.
