AF/X CPU Vs. GReddy E-management

[lawdaman]

I know the GReddy E-Management is nothing more than a tunable piggy-back set up that allows you to adjust your factory settings to your needs and the A F/X CPU is a complete replacement that can adapt to the changes you make to your cars performance, among other things. I'm planning on turbocharging my RS either through a STAR or custom set up, and would like know which would be more beneficial to my needs, seeing as I'll need to access to my fuel:air to get the most from my car. Or can I use both?

Greddy E-manage. The AF/X ecu advances timing which is not so nice for turbo applications.

you cant use the afx ecu with a turbo

Haha , Gary from Howell Automotive told me over the phone that you actually CAN, but I wasnt about to agree with him...

well, hes right, YOU CAN the thing is YOU DONT WANT TO! big difference

You can... the advanced timing would help on the low end (and spooling the turbo), you would just have to get like a crane ignition system to retard the timing back down for when the turbo is spooled. So really, you'd be spending the money on the af/x ecu just to get that extra push from 1k-2.5k

I wouldn't recommend it unless you really know what you're doing or have alot of money to blow for when you mess it up.
