The issue is that the car will unlearn anything you do to it with the blue, which is something only the RX8 does - so some of the old school guys don't know about that. The fact is regardless of your tune - dozens of engines have been blown due to the Emanage Blue.
+1 million

this is a very important post right here

Trust us on this one...emanage blue was one of the first to be used on turbo rx8's, namely with the greddy turbo kit. Then it went emanage ultimate, interceptor-x (rewired microtech), hymee protuner and cobb accessport.

The rx8's have worked the best with the protuner and accessport; which both are flash tuners allowing use of the stock pcm. Years of research and many blown engines on the piggyback systems have proved these to be the worst option for the rx8.

Of course you will still need a tuner who is knowledgeable using the flash tuners. I encourage you to look into this. I know you got the emanage for practically free, but there is nothing cheap about turbocharging an rx8 if you want it reliable.
