Hey guys, I've been looking around at engine management for my car. Originally I wanted to go MS, but the cost vs my goals in power just didn't make sense.

I literally found an EMB sitting in my storage room. The unit is still in the box with the universal harness.

So I've been doing some digging around, but it seems most of the guys are using the EMB for mainly the NA models, and NB1's. I haven't seen much about the NB2.

I've only come across one thread that spoke about a EMB on an 03 which he had an issue with burning up coils, however, with no solution.

I plan to purchase the Boomslang harness (since I found the EMB), and olderguy's autotune.

Pretty much, my questions are;

How to hook up the EMB, and what switches do I need, and how do I hook up auto tune?

My goals are only 200-220 HP, I plan to wait until I can score a used MSM turbo kit (again since my power goals are very low).

Thanks!

 

EMB works fine on NB FL too. I run it in 3 different cars I tuned. 2 of them are using MSM turbo kit, and the power range is very close to your expectations.
In terms of configuration/jumpers etc, just follow NB directions, the two engines shares the same sensors.

Simply prepare your boomslang by using electrical schemes you can find here in the "useful saved posts" section and enjoy.

 

Thanks for the reply, I downloaded the EMB manual, and I saw 99-00, so just follow those jumper settings?

 

Correct.

the 2 engines are absolutely the same in terms of settings.
