Laptop needed for e-manage??

[s13dan]

Do you have to have a laptop for the greddy emanage?? i have a Windows XP normal computer but i dunno if you can tune, then put back in car and run the go back and forth or if you must have a laptop..

I believe that the emanage has to be powered up (hooked up to the wiring harness) in order to load maps on it, so that wouldnt work

I was wondering this also, can someone give a good explanation to a newbie tryin 2 learn like me?

Thanks

I've never used it, but I have done lots of research because I plan on buying this in the future.

Without a laptop you have 5 RPM points that you can correct...not very useful.

With a laptop you have LOTS of features, but the laptop must be hooked up while the E-manage is hooked up to the car.

You can also use the Greddy E-01 boost controller. That gives all the features a laptop would, but in a bit easier and more convienant package. That is what I am doing personally.

there is a software called emanage supporting tool that which lets ur laptop tune ur e-manage. And then you just plug into the USB on the e-manage and ur computer to connect. :love:
