AEM stand alone
So is the AEM stand alone engine management system worth the $1,400 over the e-mange blue or gold? I was thinking of investing in it for my turbo setup but if emange will work just the same why would I spend the extra $1,200 on the AEM. Let me know what you guys think thanks

Rep Power: 285 the AEM is actually not that bad to tune. If you learn how to tune with the 2d maps, you can usually get the car pretty close on 5-6 pulls. Then its all fine tuning from there.
Its a celebration bitches!

Rep Power: 296 tuning is the easy part, getting everything to function as it should, the idle takes a little time, it all can be kinda tricky though. If its n/a and you dont change any sensors or need to set load breakpoints and stuff like that its do-able if you know how to tune and have a wideband. It would be very overwhelming for someone who is just getting into it for the first time. I had someone else do the fine tune on my car. I got it to run and drive and just sent it out just to be safe.

Rep Power: 296 Yeah you really need a laptop to go hand in hand with it, you can pick one up on ebay like I did for a couple hundred that will run it fine though. If you get an ems, get it with the uego wideband setup, its worth the extra money.

Rep Power: 296 I just wanna let everyone know that I HIGHLY RECOMEND NOT trying to tune yourself unless you have a LOT of experience with these type of programs. Its not something you learn as you go, one forgotten thing or mistake can really destroy a motor pretty easily. They say it in the manuals and it shouldnt be taken lightly.

In theory, yes....then again, a lot of theories work on paper, but not in reality. Just a thought.
Obviously you will not control converter lock up or shift points......

They have been released and are shipping. Check in with your sales rep to see when your backorder will be shipping. I know that allot have already shipped and AEM is approaching sellout of the first batch.
