Do I see a Turtle #3 in the near future? i still have the head, so what im planning on doing is getting hold of a 3rd gen block or if i can another 4th gen block, and putting it back together, then im going to take a crap on my emanage blue and save for an AEM. so many directions to go, after i get the block, i just dont know what to do withmyself! -------------------- |

Save for an AEM EMS and get rid of that eManage. Mine never gave me problems but the owner of the dyno I go to despises them with all his heart. What are your power goals?

if you're going to go AEM anyways... use a 5s block... the air/fuel ratio would be the only thing stopping you and with the AEM... thats an easy fix... it'll bolt right to that head you got there

REALLY?!? A 5S BLOCK?!? ive only been given "maybes" in that respect when i asked but its much cheaper than a 3s block... while my power goals are moderate (i'd be happy with 350whp) would the 5s be good for reliablility? and as far as AEM EMS im considering it... BUT 1700 bucks is rediculous! i would think emanage ultimate would be good too.... (although the blue put a bad taste in my mouth) This post has been edited by easternpiro1: Jan 10, 2010 - 9:56 PM -------------------- |

its really not redic for what you get... the AEM ems is a great unit... it controls everything including boost, NOS, knock, EVERYTHING... i got mine for $1100 with all the sensors... just have to wait for one... but ditch using a piggyback... they're trash (heard AEM's isn't too shabby though)

I think hes looking to get something used that he can bolt on and go. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned

whoops this is true... i always rebuild my blocks before adding them to a car... you would want to throw some lower compression pistons in there
