Thanks!

I 'heard' that AEM ecu's have been known to drop tune mid run on people before.

AEM Version 1's are going for real cheap because of the newer version out... I think AEM Version 1 is well worth $500 compared to a tuned ECU...

This isn't even a good comparison... I have both the Haltech ECU and AEM EMS series 1, and it's like night and day. The Haltech is a hundred times better than the AEM EMS, especially with its user interface..

Is this given you have a tuner that actually knows how to tune properly? My local tuner recommends haltech > aem> pfc, but can tune all of them properly.

Just the options available for fine tuning as you move away from pfc to haltech, allows a tuner to get a smoother/stable tune with more power.

This is what I understand from them. Lmk if I'm totally off.

I moved from pfc to aem series 1 because I got a good deal on the ems with all sensors for same price as selling my pfc. Can't afford haltech!

haltech is my choice, aem has band-aided their coil driver problems since day one.

I have the Haltech P1000 Sport on my CA and really like it, easy to tune, reliable and absolutely no issues.
