Love to see this.
Cannot wait to see when you get a solid launch. Another thing that makes me happy with this platform.
That is just plain awesome. Congratulations.
After I get my build back on the street [soon] I am seriously looking at going to the AEM EMS.
Could you give us some thoughts on it along with any pros and cons that you encountered tuning it. Would be grateful.
Thanks
I think its one of the best things you can do for a car. The two biggest problems I can think of are
1)will not pass inspection if they require hooking up to OBD2 vehicles in your state.
2)not for a beginner if you want to tune it yourself, there's a lot to it, and a lot of tricks to figure out. If you find a good tuner then your all set because once its tuned that's pretty much it, you don't have to touch it.
On the plus side if it is tuned properly it will be the smoothest car you have ever driven. It will feel like it wants to drive itself almost. Everything is adjustable including temperature changes so from day to day it runs really consistent. Unlike afc's and such that can't correct and constantly need to be changed to stay in tune.
The downfall to this and a friend was telling me about this. Is you have to always take it to a shop for a tune. Which really can suck and it is expensive. The ems is a lot more expensive then a piggyback which piggybacks are proven to work as well. It is all very debatable but an ems is not as cost effective as other solutions but are proven to work very well.
True to a POINT. have yourself a wideband 02 sensor and gauge hooked up with a logger and you can do alot of DIY tuning. I am still a novie when it comes to tuning but I was able to smoothen AFR's across the range without inducing knock at all.
Only thing i would need a dyno for is torque sensing
I would say that statement is debatable. IIRC Austin was making more power with a mostly stock setup + AEM, than a lot of guys with BPU + 13G's + AFC make. Factor in the turbo cost, injector cost, fuel pump cost, etc. (though I don't remember if you had a pump then Austin?), and I would suspect it's a close call.
