UTEC over E-MANAGE? Need help

Ok so I have Greddy TT's and I'm sick of the (*&^&*(%^ LIMP MODE. I've been reading up on the UTEC. Is this unit capable of overriding the stock ECU's ability to enter into safe mode?

Does anyone recommend the UTEC over E-Manage?

If you have keep going into "limp" mode then there is definately something wrong. I'm not sure if I would disregard something significant like that. I have the Greddy TT kit and I have never gone into "limp" mode except for when something was very wrong (I fouled a spark plug), so instead of looking for an engine management that will let you get rid of "limp" mode....I would search for problems first. I mean, "limp" mode is there for a reason, not to be bypassed and ignored.

It was the power steering pressure sensor. I bought the sonsor for 70 bucks at Nissan.
Case closed

Good to hear.....Aren't you oh so happy you didn't drop $1000+ on the UTEC. I'm glad you got the issue fixed and can enjoy your boost again!
