So i'm getting a used s/c for my 06 auto tC and i was trying to figure out what would be the best ECU set-up for an auto since i'm not gonna be using the TRD map since it wont come with the s/c.
Plus right off the bat i'm gonna have an intake, BPV (maybe a 50/50 BOV not sure yet), plus most likely a 9.5psi Pulley and i want to be able to tune it without problems.

I was looking into the AEM FI/C but i've seen that there are alot of hickups with it, and i already know not to go with the Emanage BLue since so many people have had problems with it. So basically all thats left is the Emanage Ultimate but since i have researched that much i dont want to rush into it....

I basically want to know what would be the best piggyback ECU to get for a s/c auto tC?


Thanks ahead of time...

ps
YES I SEARCHED!!!
I just didnt find anything useful tho and usually i dont make new topics so please to say "SEARCH", thanks to all.

 

If you have a Unichip tuner near you, you may want to consider that route. You can find Unichips for a steal because Turbonetics guys usually sell them for an AEM F/IC. Not because it's bad, just because it's hard to find a certified tuner.

If not, then my vote would be for eManage Ultimate.

 

ok thanks, i think i might have to start looking into the UniChip and i'm gonne have to find a certified tuner too.

What are some of the things that Unichip offers that sets it apart from the others?

 

i had the emanage blue on mine and never had a problem with it

 

with them mods you would be fine with the trd tune... just go to the dealership and they will flash your current ecu with the trd tune and your all set

btw you cant use a bov with the supercharger

 

actually you can alot of people have done it! most people recommend a 25mm hybrid 50/50 BOV tho.

 

Really? and you ran it with a s/c?
Thats good to hear!

 

best piggy back unit is the ultimate. has tons of features available to you.

 

^^^are you using the Ultimate?

If yes, what made you use it? (feature wise)

 

yes i'm using it. why did i go with it? because it's the best piggy back available. has much more features compared to the blue. the FIC wasn't even available back when i bought mine, but i still would've gone with the ultimate. some people will say why spend the extra money on all those features you don't need. well it's only another $200 or so more than the other piggybacks. and for many of the people that go with the cheaper (less features) piggybacks, later on, they have new plans for their car and their unit doesn't have the features they need (i.e. cams). basically, i got the best piggy back just in case i need to utilize some of those features in the future, instead of buying the limited units, and having to buy a new unit to fulfill my needs later.

it's the closest thing you'll get to a standalone as of right now.
