So it depends on the dyno really. If you look at another video I have the HP reading on a different dyno was around 215. Not sure how much money I have spent and its not a number a care to know. As for the HP gain the tune netted me a good 15-20 hp in the midrange which is really what you want since you can actually use and feel it. TQ also increased by about 10 with the tune.

As for cost the emanage with a plug and play harness I paid around $400 for since I found one used on S2ki. You will also need a test pipe (cat delete etc) I suggest berks since their cel fix seems to work the best this costs about $100ish. Finally you will need a wideband. I run the innovative wideband which was $164. An intake isn't a bad purchase but not 100% needed same with an exhaust. Basically the tune is how you get the most out of the bolt ons. PM me on s2ki for other questions.

As for Emanage is is pretty much the only affordable option for 2000-2005 S2000's. It has a great deal of functionality and should meet your needs nicely. The one issue is finding someone local that can tune it for you. I have a few local guys that tune it as well as shops that can but you will need to talk to your local tuners to see if they can tune on emanage as there does not seem to be many people that do it.

thank you so much! i'll look into S2ki. im on there as 2001 ap1.

Wide band o2 sensor. It's just a sensor that measures the air fuel ratio so the car doesn't run to rich or to lean. It can be plugged into the emanage so it has that data point. If you need more info you should sign up for www.s2ki.com. There is pages about emanage and lots of knowledgeable people on there. I had his tuned by someone so I am no expert on the actual tuning part.

how much hp did u gain and how much money did you spend??? doesn't stock run like 200whp

[manga_spawn]

That is what it is now set at. 3500 was to low.

[manga_spawn]

Are you on S2ki? I am a mod on there. Manga_Spawn. To answer your questions yes I can feel it especially since the Vtec kicks in so much lower. This cause the car to have a much smoother power band (you can see it in the dyno graph). The problem with just doing bolt ons is they don't add that much because the stock ECU can only adjust so much and you cannot lower vtec without some kind of Engine Management IE Emanage AEM etc.

thanks for the reply! 1 more question is the power satisfying, i mean that can you notice it alot that you have that extra power. i ask this because everytime i ask on forums that all i want is 10-15 hp. on my 01 with just intake test pip and exhaust people tell me im not gonna notice it. how is that possible you have to notice it thats y i ask.

lol thanks I made it 4 years ago -_-Okay well can you tell me what a wideband is? I have no idea what that is.... Please help ha

[knockout]

another question is that would recommend e manage if im only looking on bolt ons and is tune expensive and alot of people can tune it? and reliabilty? sorry for alot of questions im interested in what you did with your car because im trying to go that route. all i want is 15whp with ap1

[Kchiocchio]

Do you have to have a test pipe and a wideband to tune a 2003 s2000 with greddy e-manage ultimate ecu? I only have headers and catback exhaust and just want to tune the car with those, I already have the ecu just need to put it in

looks like vtec cuts in too early have you tried 4500rpm?
