I am purchasing a AEM EMS for my 91 Eclipse. I decided to go stand alone as i plan on building a 10sec. car over the next couple years and dont want to spend money twice or run out of options with whatever i buy. I have 2 questions on this unit.
First: how well will this system work with minimal upgrades for now including free flow exhaust. fuel system and air upgrades, and 17PSI. I assume with the range of adjustment this would work fine with proper tuning but wanted a few opinions...
Second: Are items like MAF translators, AFCs, dataloggers, ect. still necessary with a stand alone AEM unit? I wasnt sure if the AEM would control everything or if a piggyback setup with some of these items was preferred or necessary. I want all the tools i need to have the car properly tuned at a Dyno shop and be able to compensate for any mods throughout my process of upgrades. I also want to become educated along the way to decrease tuning costs in the future!!!
Any input much appreciated!
thanks guys
