greddy e-manage or e-manage ultimate
 
i was wondering if anyone has any ideas which is the best set up to use, i have a turboded D16A9 in my crx, currently not reving above 4k which is coz the fueling doesnt match the air flow.
simple upgrade the fuel, so larger injectors and an ecu to compensate, trouble is ecu's are ---- hot expensive in this country (england) and no one does chipping, i cant get a diy kit as no one ships to england form the usa, the ones tht do charge huge shipping rates, like more then the cost of the product.
i've been looking at the e-manage from greddy, the standard retails about £390 including delivery with everything need to plug tune n play, the ultimate weighs in about £540 (same conditions).
is it worth getting the ultimate, not that i can afford either (student on no income, only the standard loan :'( ) or is there a cheaper way that you can sort this, known in england??

For what that cost just hit up Xenecron for a chipped ecu.Innovate LC1 wideband and a data logging cable.Im pretty sure he ships overseas as he ships to Canada no problem via USPS.You will have better management and you will learn alot while your doing it.---- Greddy and there overpriced junk they sell.

Well you could just get on pgmfi.org and fugure out what parts you need to chip your ecu and then just buy them form an electronics parts store in england. then buy a wideband a wideband as cheap as you can find maybe second hand you could come into a good deal. Being a student you probably already have a laptop or know someone who does that will let you use it...then a chip burner and your good to go. awith all of that you should be well under the cost of either Greddy unit. It's what I would do If I were you.
