I don't know what that is, but I guess since you say I need it I will buy it. Its cheap so whatever.


Do you suggest a V1 or V2 AEM? Is it that big of a difference for my DD power goals?

I suggested it because you can then control boost via the AEM EMS. rather than using the manual boost controller that you have.

I have the AEM series 2. however, a lot of people have V1 and it can be found for a bit cheaper.

Is it cheaper and still gets the job done? Or do I fork over the extra $600 and get the v2 and not regret a later?

it will get the job done. My advice is to talk to your tuner about that and see what he recommends or feels comfortable with. No point in buying something he doesn't know or can't tune.

I guess so....alright I guess I will go there tomorrow. I suppose there isn't that much of a difference between V1 and V2 software wise

Was reading your post and had dejavu all over again.

I recently took on a project WAY over my head. I had/have question for days about certain parts, what goes where, etc. Just be patient and try and research a lot of this on your own, google will be your friend i promise!
Dont give up on the kit, your so close to having it completed, u just need a few small parts. All the expensive stuff is basically out of the way. Just google pro's con's of k-pro/aem/, etc and see what most people think about each system. I would stay away from Greddy e-manage, just because of horror stories ive heard about them (just personal preference). But again, RESEARCH this on ur own and form your own opinion.

**I would go with RC 750's or some ID 725/1000's.
**Go with AEM or k-pro, those seem to have the most success, and are the most commonly used that i have seen
** Your intercooler is pretty beefy, and im guessing it will hold upwards of 500hp+

You have a lot of nice stuff, just hang in there and dont give up, i dont mean to give a pep talk, but i was/am in the same situation you are with certain things, misinformation, bad parts, etc. Good luck with everything and dont be afraid to ask questions!!

Always remember google is your friend!

All my friends and siblings keep saying the same thing! . I was so close to giving up on this thing, but I guess I will just make a project out of it. Might take me a few to get everything. I appreciate the kind words


Yes, it is supposedly capable of 500hp. But who knows . I don't plan on going that high anyway .



Thanks again for the enthusiasm!
