yes it is gone, special water return line. it is work fine, and i feel it is just cool as like stock. Turbo temp usually is more higher than stock, but i don't feel a big big temp gain when open the hood.

Why do you continue to crap on e-manage? Check all the setting/jumpers on the e-manage board, double check all harness connections. It really is not rocket science...just like hooking up a stereo.

Idle is not under e-manage control. The ECU will call the shots in closed-loop mode. If idle is off then check for air-leaks. What maps are you using on the e-manage right now?

the wiring has bee done according to the link you gave me, which do fix problem before. Now every is set ready, but differnet problem come out. when try to start it, the idel is running low than shut off. And the gauge for the air/fuel don't read it right, which dumping too much fuel(reading 15-16 on idel). Some how when the car warm up little bit, the idel stay better than when it is cold.

unless you can tell me what is wrong, or i'm just had bad luck with defect emanager?
Will checking with tunner tomorrow for the Greedy mapping, unless you have different mapping from Greedy?

I don't think the idle issue is directly related to e-manage. You've got a custom turbo. The shop that is doing the work should know what they are doing. Idle issues are typically related to fouled plugs, small air-leaks etc. 15-16:1 A/F at idle is not bad and in no way is it rich. Actually it's real close to normal which is 14.7-15.3 .

What's your main injector correction set at on your e-manage? What maps are you using? When are you making fuel corrections?What size injectors are you running?

What CEL codes are you getting from the tC ECU?

I'm not saying that it's impossible the idle issue is caused by the piggy-back...but it's unlikely that the piggy-back is the cause of your problems. Lots of folks here are running with Greddy e-manage both blue and ultimate and idle problems do not appear to be a recurring issue.

Got off the e-manage is BAD bandwagon and do read the programmer software manuals. They are availble for download free at www.greddy.com

emanage do have problem for wiring according to the instuction they come with. which is for throttle body. the idle problem isn't the emanage problem.
