I installed the Greddy Emanager computer today and so far so good. The instructions supplied are horrible so keep that in mind.
Car is pulling very strong now. I will get another dyno next week with the 3.12 and then switch to the 2.87 for another dyno.

I gave up on the SRT route. the first ecu sent was too lean down low and rich up top. SRT suggested a fuel pump so I purchased a Walbro from SRT. Another dyno and still same issue. Sent ecu back and received another. Even leaner down low and richer this time. Mo said can't be. So he suggested the Emanage system. I highly recommend this route as it is adjustable for any future upgrades. Installation is very simple. 5 wires. Same hook up as SRT ecu minus one wire. I made a nice clear box to mount it in and to protect the unit as it is installed in the engine compartment. Will post pics later. Car is much much stronger than before as the big block mustang and soup'd up El Camino found out today. Pulls hard from a stop as it is no longer lean down low. Expect new dyno numbers next week. 2.87 pulley coming soon as well.

hehe...can't wiat for more info on the dyno now
Lee- glad to hear you're finally working the kinks out man... Can't wait to see what you put down on the dyno with the smaller pulley... Between you, morris and klyngs400 I'll know more of to expect for myself...Definitely keep me posted!! I'm still trying to figure out my dilemma, looks like i'll be sending my SC back to Vortech in the coming week to get the internals replaced, hopefully this will resolve matters! Troubleshooting is becoming too damn expensive!!
EV ftw!!!

Did somebody say you gotta pay to play?

tuning
Started the tuning process. Once close I will take it in the dyno shop for final tuning and testing.
First pic shows the system set of an error code as it was running a bit rich

Another shot of another screen. Long term fuel trim is -35% thus explaing why my system is a bit rich at the moment. A little more tuning is in order to get this under control.
