i have seen many dyno sheets of AEM numbers. and they are truly amazing!

i saw a D15B bone *** stock dynod 76whp....just tuned with AEM it laid down 119.6whp. my built D16 hardly laid down 120 with a chipped ECU.
also saw a H22 stock internals (only sleeved) run 500+whp on AEM. (it was the tuners car and yes it shot a rod through the block so he didnt really care)
seen a few more as well...but just examples

so from what i have seen from dyno sheets and what not. im sold. but if not like i said neptune or hondata

tuning is tuning, you're a ****** for buying a $600 ecu when stock ecu reflashed will do the same thing.

well i disagree completely....i have first hand experience with different ECU tuning softwares and they do difference things.

if tuning is just tuning why did my fully built D16 tuned with Crome Pro only lay down 110whp. and when i sold it for my corvette, the guy retuned it and it laid down 150whp? nothing was done to the motor. was just retuned with....ECUedit i believe.

tuning is tuning, however there are better tuning software out there.

Tuning is tuning, yes, but one tuner does not equal another tuner. You cannot compare HP differences on a motor simply based on a different method of engine management.

If it was the same tuner, perhaps he did not have the experience to tune the same with Crome Pro and did have the experience to tune with the AEM?

If it was two different tuners, then your argument is even more invalid.

a jd/xeno tune on crome will pwn the average joes tune on aem

AEM has no place on a Honda. Keep in mind that I am the only one on the AEMPower forums who can apparently figure out how to get a 2JZ-GTE to boost past 7 psi without an HKS DLI, because everyone else on there is too stupid to figure out their coil dwell tables.



I called it a day because the retarded *** 2.25" charge pipe that came with his kit started restricting top end flow, boost was tapering and everything. Given an H22 with a looser-than-stock piston to wall, a bigger turbo, and bigger chage pipe I could break 500 on a stock H22 too. Whoopty-----.

FYI, Neptune works correctly but Hondata is some crusty *** caveman ---- - no thanks.
