A computer will only execute what it's told.

I am just trying to figure out what made my engine blow up ..
They say it's becausee the ems but to me it quite doesn't make sense to me ....
Anyone think it's very possible ? Or had anyone else experienced ??
With AEM ems v1 it's kinda old and had little problems with it but I didn't know it will blow my engine ...

If you have the car in your posession, upload the tune file and have someone look over it.

Unless the computer malfunctions and we know the AEM series 1 had plenty of corks. Mostly ignition driver related, but maybe it wasn't driving the injectors properly. Sounds like the engine ran very lean vs detonation. But need pics.

Or it was the tuner. easy for them to wash their hands clean when there is no "proof" of a mistake or neglect.

Either one of these culprits is why I learned to tune my own cars and with piggy backs that retain the factory ecu, because there is nothing more reliable then factory Honda electronics and my own two hands. I lost a motor to a tuners neglect and unfamiliarity and they washed their hands clean of me. I was out the cost of an engine and I still even had to pay for the tune that tanked it. First and last time that situation will ever happen to me again.

Could it be any fuel pump or injector problem ?
Now I am starting to think any used parts that I bought could be a problem ...
