I'm looking at doing a simple turbo setup this year. I'd been planning on AEM EMS, but for my goals, I'm thinkin the AEM will be a bit overkill.

For those of you with EU, does it cut the mustard? Good support for it? Any major issues I should be aware of?

I can obviously save a good bit of money with the EU plus not have the occasional starting issues the AEM is known for.

My goal- Upwards of 400-425whp max.

 

why don't you ask your tuner...

 

I am my tuner. I've used EU in limited fashion before, but just can't justify spending standalone dollars on a stock motor setup with nothing outrageous and not pushing any envelopes.

 

I see. well, MY tuner said he wouldn't use it if going over 400whp. I don't think the unit has a limitation, so I guess it's up to you if you want to run it or not.


btw I did run it with my Vortech @9.5psi(around 350~360whp) and it was fine.

 

chimmike im in the same situation... i want to do inline pros basic set up and run the EU. 400 to the wheels would be nice with a piggy back

 

350-360whp is a lot of power for an S2000, so I'm thinking if the EU can handle that, with careful tuning, 400whp safely isn't out of the question.

Just a matter of being cautious with ignition timing and making sure the transition is tuned perfectly.

 

like I said, no limitation to the unit. depends on how well you can tune it I guess. good luck!

 

buy an AEM EMS and dont ask this questions..there is no way around Stand alone

 

i'm running emanage ultimate, my tuner did an excellent job tuning it

 

why would you run a J&S safeguard with an AEM EMS? Doesn't make sense to me.

and like I said, I can't justify standalone costs (plus the extra tuning expense) for a basic turbo kit. Maybe if I was pushing the limit of the motor with just a headgasket or with a built motor, that's another thing altogether.
