There has been some speculation surrounding Emance performance rom tunes. I am referring to this thread-http://www.zilvia.net/f/showthread.php?t=140162-. I said that I would contact the tuner bring him (he was actually a member) on here to clear up some misconceptions and answer Zilvia member questions. I get tired of reading posts from people who have not even tried one. Feel free to fire off any questions you guys may have on the Rom tunes in question.

2.have your tunes been dyno or at least knock tested?
3.what do you wot afrs look like?

Hello, this is Jason, owner of Emance LLC.

I see you have a few questions in reguards to our tunes.

1. You ask why the tunes are so cheap? i ask why does everyone else charge so damn much?? i suppose if you want to spend $500 you could, but i am not trying to make a million dollars, i am trying to help the poor 240 owners which i was when i first started on my 240 in college at 19.

2. Yes our tunes have been tested on dyno and or wideband. we also have knock lights installed on cars we tune to make our base tunes.

3. a/f's are around 14.5 (loopback mode) on idle and at WOT they are around 11.5-11.8 (you can customize this)

4. I dont know if they are on zilvia, but i have tuned for a lot of local people to me in san diego, in fact, if anyone reading this lives in san diego, i'd show them my tune, we could install one in their car for a very low cost as long as they wrote a report here on zilvia.

5. I have tuned very high compression ka's, sr20det redtop/blacktops, z32 na and tt, and my personal favorate KA-T. if anyone also lives local to san diego, i can show how well the tunes work on my 500whp ka-t. just converted it to E85, man does that fuel love timing!

so in short, if you are trying to tune a common turbo setup sr20 or ka-t, i can tune for most turbos as long as they have a compressor map, i have successfully tuned for up to 100lb injectors. as long as you have an s13 or at least a conversion harness for s14/s15 to run a s13 ecu (i have a write up how to make one), you can take advantage of my tunes.

hope this helps you guys out.

the stock knock sensor is useless.

anyone using it as a base for saftey or tune is not a tuner I would trust.

please clarify what you mean by this.

Do you have access to a personal/company dynometer? or outsource?

Why not tune every car on the dynometer one by one? The power possibilties would be much higher and tune much better especially for midigating tuning effects of Cali gas and other influences.

just curious

all our base maps are dynotuned.

for fine tuning we use turboxs knock lites (google it) and the bosch knock sensor turboxs recommends. it works beautifully it is so powerful it even detects mild knock. i advance/retard timing so there is not even mild knock (naked ear cant hear it)

we could dyno tune cars one by one if you live local to san diego and are willing to pay. but for most people, or base tune will make you happy.

steve shadows

yeah using a light to tune for knock is not my fortay but i suppose it could work in a pinch.

If i could data log the input from the sensor the knock lite unit uses then i might pick one up in the near future.

im fine (tune my own goodies and others ems') but im sure there are people who arent willing to go standalone and could use your services.

there is quite a meaningless monopoly on tuning in cali regarding stuff like this the more smaller people start up the easier it makes it for me to get some legitimacy as well, at least in the short term.

cheers

Hey if you are the owner mabey u can answer my question.. I purchased one of your cables
For my rb25 in my 240 and wired it into my ecu the way I was instructed to. However .. no matter what I do or how hard I try. Or what computer I am using , I cannot get the computer to recognize the interfacer. And yes I do have a computer capable of running a serial to usb adapter. Soooo. whats the problem? Why won't this work?

nosajton

pm me we'll figure it out most of the time if it is a swap the consult wires arent hooked up right.

It's nice to see your still on here. I have read all the good and bad reviews for emance....And am still considering you for tuning. The fact your on the board and still helping people work through problems will most likely influence my decision alot.

fromxtor

Are you tuning SOHC Ka-ts?

yes i do tune sohc ka-t's as a matter of fact my buddy is running one at the local scca. he's running a gt28rs and he's always in #1 or #2 place in his class. i think he drives crazy though

timtiminy

Nosajton:
1)I am within driving distance of san diego. Could i possibly get a base tune for my setup from you then drive down there and have you fine tune my 240 on a dyno?
2)how much would you charge for something like this?
3)would you be able to fine tune, if I send you a dyno plot with air/fuel at a few different boost settings? I know this is something enthalpy offers.
4)I have heard that there is a possibiliy that your daughterboard quality is inferior to many other daughterboards. That it doesn't even have moisture protective coat and the circuit board is of cheap materials. This results in the cheap prices. Being able to do this for much cheaper because of the lack of quality in electronic components such as capacitors, resistors, and/or eeprom/flash chips. Is this just someones speculation or is there truth/partial truth in this statement? Tell us about the quality of the hardware of your system.

Thank you!

nosajton

1) 2) I pm'd you about getting your car tuned by us.
3) yes, if you have a dyno plot/sheet it will greatly help us.
4) our daughterboards have a life expectancy of 10 years, per manufacture.

anyhow, i warranty your tune for the life of it. if anything happends, i will fix it for free. there are no resistors on our daughterboards. the capacitors we use are Kemet and are known for their superior components. our chips are texas instruments the best out there. the flash chips are amtel or sst just to clear up the 'speculation' this statement is nonsense, whoever is telling you our quality is poor really does not know much about electronics.

Nosa PM me about a KAET rom tune

What type of dyno are you using?

Can you tune 8 bit ecu's like the ca18det?

Can you change coil dwell time?

nosajton

sure can tune ca18det. what code ecu you got?

yes we can change coil dwell time but we dont really recommend playing with it too much because you can burn your coil

street240

Im looking at a tune for sr/z32/740/2871 combo. Is that one supported and can you tune for s3 cams?

nosajton

do you have a dyno chart for the s3 cams? i am sure i can tune for it.

timtiminy

nosajton, Thanks for the pm, i will be getting back to you shortly. thanks for answering all my questions and being forward about everything. I think you will be a great asset to the zilvia.net community. Thanks for coming on here and answering questions and whatnot. pm sent

Chrischeezer

Is this the same as the Eformance that is advertised on ebay?

if so, i have an ECU being done by them right now..

So yesterday Jason came out to my house to tune my KA, a '91 n/a setup inside a '71 Datsun 510. I actually didnt hear about him here or at ka-t.org but emailed him off of Craigslist (I could tell from the KA parts he was selling that he was not a 'normal' 240 guy).

This guy is easily the most knowledgeable KA tech I've ever met. I had a few ghetto-rig problems, he diagnosed, pinpointed and fixed before even getting started on the actual tune. I don't have the most exciting setup, just headers, intake and full exhaust, but he did what he needed to do, and now? Engine purrs perfectly, as far as power and torque, definitely noticed a difference in almost any situation, street or freeway. He even accepted my core ecu, which had old Pokez salsa spilled on it ().

If you're a local and he's got the time, you'd be stupid to not have him tweak your rig. Thanks again Jason! And BTW, after riding with you in your beast of a 240, I gotta say it's faster than a motherfucker. Easily would take my roommates 2006 STI, which is both hilarious and sad.

nosajton

Thanks Eric, I hope you enjoy your datsun! if/when you're ready to turbo it, give me a call, i'll hook you up. with that car you wont need a huge turbo. a nice sr t25 will get you about 280whp or t28 will get you past the 300 mark.

btw, just turned the boost up a little more on my 240. going to dyno it tomorrow. i'll post the results on here.

street240

Thanks for the update. Everyone always forgets to report back.

i pm'd him about my set up and im waiting to hear back ...my stock turbo is out and by the weekend i should have the gt2871r in with the new mani and elbow all im gonna need is some injectors but im not sure if i should go with 740's or 650's...

street240

You could do 650's, but if you go 740 they will most likely be the last set you ever buy.

Did you create the base tunes or did you get them from another source?

all of my tunes are done by me. not another source. i have learned from some of the best tuners, but it is my original work.

nelson8708

That is not true. I purchased a tune from you for the sohc ka and it is identical to the develish stage 3 N/A tune on the hybridka forum. I paid 50$ for something i already had for free. Wont make that mistake agian. Copied his tune and sold it as your own.....

there was one tune over 18 months ago that a collegue of mine said he made for the sohc. devious brought it to my attention that it resembled his tune and we immediately cut ties with that person and stopped selling that tune.

you can even ask devious about this. this is old news.
