Re: AEM FIC
I've got a F/IC on my miata and own the domain AEMFIC.com
it kicks *** for a piggyback but to be honest, it would be dumb as ***** to get one for any civic when there are much better and more cost-effective solutions. Either run TE or upgrade to ODB1 and run Crome or Uber for pennies on the dollar compared to getting a $400 F/IC.
With the $ you have left over (Say you went the TE route), you'd have about $300 left over. Spent $200 on a wideband and you've still got $100 left over. Tune it yourself and save another $250.
Now you got a tuned *** car, chip burner, wideband and $350 more in your pocket than you would have had.

I live in claremore oklahoma that is 20 min away form tulsa. The two shops that we have that tune are humbleperformance and toyspeed racing.Humble has been around for along time but have bad rep for messing up cars but they have produce the fastest cars in our erea. toyspeed has been around for a few years and the guy knows what he is doing but everytime you tell him what you want to do and what your goal is he tries to change your mind and go a differnt rout [the more exspensive rout].Its like he doesnt want to help you out at all.
Ive been working on this project for two years now. Im getting frustrated I want my car to run.

Re: AEM FIC
oklahoma city is real close it would take me just under 2 hours to get there. 100 miles. So how much are we talking about. [total price] tuning and everything i would need for you to tune car. As far as the t28 its what came with kit, its a ssautochrome kit i was on budget. May change later if i cant reach 300 whp with this set up.
