p5p tuning

No, not in the key of C. An H is likely involved though ...

p5p tuning

Post by clarelude23 » Mon Feb 23, 2015 3:59 pm

Hi all,I'm planning a trip to the dyno soon and the shop have a lot of tuning experience and gear. I was thinking it would be a good idea to get them to tune my ecu for power but I've heard that the p5p ecu maps cannot be changed. Is this true and does anyone gave any experience with this?

You have a Type S so your only option us to use a piggy back ecu. You need to keep obd2 to use your atts. Otherwise obd1 removes the atts function.
A greddy emanage ultimate is the best and if you staying na this will work.

Ya I looked it up and it seems like a good option. Any downside to running it?

Can be difficult to find places that will tune e-manage I believe - check with your tuner before buying it!

What Wurley said.

The person who tuned my Greddy Emanage who was the only one i could find in mainland UK has ceased trading which has forced me to convert to OBD1 and remove my ATTS and gearbox and change to a standard helical diff.

Pain in the ass.

If your running a superchager or turbo then the parameters your stock ECU has to fight is huge and the tune can lean out as its doing with mine. But with a mild NA build i think you will be absolutely fine and it will work great. But again you need to find a tuner comfortable with it.

My Emanage Ultimate with its plug and play boomslang harness will be for sale in April once i get mine tuned.

You can. Ill be wanting £450 delivered for it all once its out. Also its the last version they did with the more reliable revision D board and polished metal chassis. All you will need is to get a wideband o2 sensor and replace you stock o2 with it and then wire one wire to the stock ecu so it still sees o2 reading as normal and the other wire to the A/F harness (included) so the emanage seen a wideband reading. Easy peasy. Nothing else needs cutting.
