Ok, well i am in the midst of piecing together my turbo system, and i have to make a decision as to what to use for an engine management system. I have narrowed down to 2 choices either the GReddy e-Manage Ultimate or the Haltech E6X. I plan on running a single fuel rail with 590cc injectors, also with low compression pistons. I know the Haltech is a bit more money, but i am not concerned with money for this purchase. so i am wondering what your guys thoughts are on each and what has been your experiences with them.

alright, haltech would be the way to go if you want to go standalone. heres why i recommend emanage to everyone that asks.. you will never really need the powers of the haltech. the cost in the end for both will be about the same..
the emanage ultimate has about 2X the options and fine tuning that the emanage blue has. basically unless you plan on boosting upwards of 500whp very unnecessary.
i would recommend to the basic boost setup, the emanage blue, with the profec e-01 and the fuel spacer.. the setup is really simple, and EXTREMELY user friendly. anyone can tune with the program, and you dont have to mess with ANY of your stock fuel maps. so until you hit boost, you are running the car as stock. when you hit boost, the emanage kicks in, and adds more fuel.
i have never seen the haltech software personally so i cant say anything about it.
but i know the emanage software, and how it works.. i could provide you with base maps to get on the road, and tuning. it really all comes down to personal preference. but you really dont need standalone, until you are at powers like tim is at.
