Update on the car
Update on the car
Ok so i found out yesterday what my problem has been with my car. They said i had a bad intake manifold gasket and the egr gasket. Now this is where it gets interesting. The mechanic proceeds to tell me when he hooks up the emanage the car starts running like $hit and throws a code for absolute pressure sensor. He also says that you can hear the car detonating with the emanage 
. Now with the emanage unhooked the car starts and runs fine(this is even with the PE 510cc injectors). So he is now charging me $450 to go back and re-wire the emanage and tune the car since he said he did not feel confident something was wired correctly. I find this hard to believe since i used the exact wires from the SAFC and Jay25 even double checked the wirring. I am stuck since the guy will not fool with the emanage until he re-wires it becuase he said he did not want to be liable for anything and i cant just go running around town with 510cc injectors and no way to control them.
Does any one have any thoughts on what maybe the problem with why the emanage would be causing a problem like this.

I know i don't know how those gaskets were messed up that bad.

yea well i am pretty sure the wiring is correct, this shop just pretty much has me by the ***** since they are the only really good performance shop in my area. And one thing is for sure is that i am sure not messing with that POS car anytime soon
Chris so Loc is holding your car ransom so he can rewire your emanage? that sucks. But I am sure you will be happy if you car runs.
I am glad they figured out the gasket problems too. Let me know when you get the car back.
Also your PM box is full. kthx

What is there to rewire, I doubled check his wiring, not just double checked it but I solder his MAF connections. I also checked voltage to insure it was receiving voltage in and out.
Chris,
Did you ever try updating to the latest firmware or "Export Data" to your eManage using the support tool?
If so, you may try this:

There is a small bug in the Support Tool software. Here's info and a
workaround:
This procedure is for those who have problems using the Support Tool on
the laptop. There are scenarios where
if you use the PARAMETER SETTINGS and "Confirm" your changes, it will
cause your car to not run/idle properly
and not all parameters are saved to the E-Manage unit. This seems to
exist for Support Tool 1.11 and previous.
Questions, feel free to email vinnie.lima@jvllogistics.com
1) Turn your car to ON
2) Go to the FILES section of the yahoo group and download the latest
US
language and the latest Main unit operating system.
3) Bring up your support tool to ONLINE
4) Go to COMMUNICATION and click on MAIN UNIT UPDATE
5) When it prompts you to TURN OFF MAIN UNIT, turn your key to OFF
position.
6) Click OK
7) Turn ignition to ON
8) Bring up your support tool to ONLINE.
9) Go to SETTINGS and click on PARAMETER SETTINGS
10) Make all your changes and select relevant maps. If you do not have
the additional harnesses, check the "Air Flow Adjustment Map". Also set
your Throttle Setting.
11) Click on CONFIRM. It will pop up asking you to turn off ignition
once. Go ahead and turn ignition to OFF. Click OK.
12) Turn ignition to ON. Reconnect support tool so it is ONLINE.
13) Go to COMMUNICATION and then click on EXPORT DATA.
14) Once that is done, click on CONFIRM for any pop ups you get. Then
turn the ignition to OFF.
15) Turn the ignition to ON and proceed to turn the car ON.
From this point on, NEVER reconfigure the PARAMETER SETTINGS or export
to main unit!!! This is what screws things up.
Any change you make on your air-flow map are automatically updated with
the main unit thus there is no need to "export".
Every time you start up your support tool and want to modify the maps
on the main unit, just IMPORT from the main unit and proceed to modify
it.
But again, never mess around with the PARAMETER SETTINGS or EXPORT to
main unit unless you go through the steps above again.

I am not doubting your work Jay. I am saying the guy at the shop is and it is kind of typical of them. I understand what he is saying since he can't really guarantee it working since he doesn't know if everything was done right from the get go, but he didn't say "hey lets try to reinstall the SC too since IDK if you did that right either."
Knowing you didn't just throw it together and that you double checked chris's work makes me think there has to be some setting or something somewhere not faulty connection at least where it connects to the wiring harness. I am not very knowledgible about emanage but that would be the next direction I would go.
