yep you are right you can use laptop, i forgot all about that me bad,
But unless you are running a turbo or S/C its not going to do much, and i take it you do have one of the E-manage Ignition Harness to set it up.
the only thing i can say then as to why it has not worked is the guy that set it all up dont know what he is doing, ;) see seting up Emanage any one can do that as its not hard but to setup timeing you have to know what you are doing or you could :tsktsk: you car up if its not setup right.
all i can say to you is reset the Emanage, then just setup the A/F
Let us know how you get on with the Emanage, as that is what im useing and my one has been good from day one :winky:
