Emerald K6 ECU
Has anyone used a Emerald K6 ECU to run their 4.6 RV8 - with Thor Manifold?
If so how have you found it? Pros and Cons.
No discussion about Megasquirt please.
Thanks
Garry

I have Emerald on GEMS 4.6, works very well. I can't see why Thor would be any different.

Re: Emerald K6 ECU
It's a basic/budget ecu. Option for full sequential would be nice...but by no means essential.
Emerald have been around for a long time, they seem to offer a solid product. No reason at all not to go for it if it suits your needs and budget and your tuner is happy working with it.

Thanks guys - looks like a good economical option. I might look into it further.

Re: Emerald K6 ECU
Why not Haltech ? it´s local to you (well from Europe´s point of view anyway )and there should be plenty of tuners who know Haltech software.
Re: Emerald K6 ECU
I'd say that's the most important thing. Choose one your installer and tuner is familiar with, and recommends.

Re: Emerald K6 ECU
You're in Australia ?
And Emerald is cheaper than a local ECU ? Haltech do offer cheaper stuff too as do some other makes like Link, although I despise the Link software. Seems made by computer gamers instead of tuners.
Even here in UK, retail price on a K6 is higher than a Haltech 550 for ecu only.
First and foremost, local support and tuner should be the priority though.
But there are literally dozens of ecu options around.
