This.

Seriously, what the drokk is the point in having a type s and then stopping it having atts (no offense to mudgey here).

Just sell the drokking thing and supercharge a vti. So it starts off life 15 bhp down. Big deal since you're supercharging/tuning it anyway...

(Can you tell that annoys me..?) :lol:

Or better still, buy crunchy's 3rd gen and stick a supercharged h22 in that?

Very basically, this is how I understand it. May be incorrect but assuming two engines making the same power:

Higher compression + lower pressure = 'better' performance off boost, more torque.
Lower compression + higher pressure = 'worser' performance off boost, more top end oomph.
I thought if you're charging (forced induction), you ideally want a lower compression engine, because the whole point is forced n/a will (in effect) raise compression anyway? :? Which is why an h22a2 or h22a5 are best suited to forced induction out of all the h22 options?

Greddy E-Manage = piggyback ECU so you can tune but keep the old ECU (and therefore ATTS)@

Tempting. Would this be plug and play in my lude? What instant benefits would have see?

The emanage. Ratty might be able to say better as Ive never used piggyback but do know it still needs a tune to maximize any benefits.

Again thats the most rediculous thing ever.

I must have spent over 600hours on my car alone doing
- Full respray
- Full underseal
- Fully deadened
- Interior metals cut to suit larger speakers and audio
- All the mods done etc etc.


Getting another car would be the worst idea ever and very costly considering id have to buy a decent condition one and spend 600+ hours doing what i have done to the type S.

Again a Type S ISNT just for ATTS. Its for no sunroof, no 4WS, MUCH better front suspension design, alread higher tuned engine. All im doing it taking out ATTS and replacing it with a helical LSD. It will achieve the same effect to some degree but allow me to tune the supercharger better.

Also turbocharging and supercharging are different.
Turbos like lower compression but can work well on high compression.
Supercharging works very well on high compression engines since the boost is very mild and progressive and constant. Turbos boost "tends" to be either no boost or boost.

But my engine at 6psi will suit supercharging much better than other h22s.



Sam
The Greddy E manage Ultimate is plug and play with the harness i bought. You can plug it in now but you wont see a difference because it would need to be tunned. You will need it tunning to your engine.
It basically takes the signal from the stock ECU and manipulates it to your configured tune.
Its a piggy back ECU. Pretty much the only thing the Type S can use. There are other piggy back ECUs of course but the Greddy is the best one IMO.
