AEM Ignition Failure AGAIN!!

Today was a great day so i decided to get out the car. When i went to get gas the car cut out, and i didn't really think anything of it. Then when i'm driving home at a stop sign it cut out again. So now i know something is up, coming off of a highway ramp it cuts out again, but this time won't start back up scared the **** out of me. Put my by-pass in, the car started and ran fine. This is my second one of these things dammit. I thought they had the problem fixed well i guess not. Total bull ****, they need to do something about it seems like a law-suit waiting to happen. Someones car cuts out and then that person gets in a crash cause of it.

Sell it and get MSD's or HKS twin power and you won't have that problem anymore

Shipping mine out AGAIN for the third time.. I was sent a new (first replacemnet) one around Nov. Worked fine until last week. 4o degrees out and it cuts off on the interestate just driving 75mph.. SO they say they have another NEW version to send me... I only wanted my money back to buy the HKS or XS unit but this is the way they want to handle it. I am going to run the **** out of the next one and if it cuts out then I will insists on my money back...

So much for them having all the problems ironed out. What a POS! Man I've never seen such a high failure rate for something like a simple ignition amp. It makes you think twice about purchasing AEM products, at the very least they are willing to take them back and fix them. For how long?
