awesome man, now just cross your fingers and have fun. I'm lovin the turbo power and I'm sure you will too. Mine's a lot more powerful than when you were in it. You'll be amazed how good it pulls. What extra's did you end up getting? If you need places to get the stuff just let me know. I'll link you to where I got most my stuff. Enjoy man, You know we going to have to do a photoshoot or something. Dang another Yellow turbo....sweet......

bov, boost controller, and little things like that. I'm having problems with finding people to tune it too. I know of a great (awd) dyno and the guy knows how to tune really well, but he doesn't really work with emanage and he hasn't tuned very many rotarys. If you find anyone that thinks they can do it for a descent price let me know. This guy's price runs at $150 per hour. How's the car running? Any problems? Have you got on it yet?

The Interceptor-X management system will resolve these issues and give you more power as well. Checkout the video at Mazsport.net

I'm thinking about getting rid of the emanage and going with either the xintercepter or the HKS one but no one has told me which one's better b/c no one really has either one running. I'm going to wait until i see some improvements with either one.

As far as the stalling and hesitation goes i removed my cat and added a bov and it runs better. The back firing is suppost to be normal in all rotarys. Let me know in more detail what's happening and I'll see if it's happened to me b4. Most things have...

well I put the stock cat back on cause I heard that would help..... I have a BOV so no issues there, I just tuned my boost up to 7.5 and that seems to help with the hesitation :D however it still stalls like a ****. I noticed that on the profec it has an anti stall feature but I took one look at that and pussed out. do you know of and "generic" settings for this and if it even helps? Thanks

Depends on how far away it is and how much it'll cost. I'm almost set on getting rid of emanage and going with one of the new ems options, but let me know if you can find someone that is sure he can get this thing to run good and I'll probaly go.
