blu and tooch i couldnt agree more, but its $$$!

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!

[OOBE]

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?

[pittfirefighter]

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

wait wait wait.... 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)

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 he wants to buy a short bock and bolt it on. with a 5s block, your going to have to rebuild it and lower the compression.
I think hes looking to get something used that he can bolt on and go.

[pittfirefighter]

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

this is true lagos! will have the $$ for a block w/ pistons crank etc at the end of the month, next gotta figure what to do after that... engine mgt... etc.

may get the block from MR2 guru on mr2oc.com, hes like 1.5 hrs or so from me. he told me to take the emanage blue and smash it against the wall lol.

lagos, i remember you posting a while back (circa 06?) about engine management, and said that AEM was the best way to go or hydra nemesis. what do you think of emanage ultimate?
