By FarThe Coolest Thing We Saw
The coveted "By-Far-The-Coolest-Thing-We-Saw-At-SEMA" awardgoes to AEM's new programmable Engine Management System. Poor tuning is by far the most common problem, and is ultimately the cause of the majority of catastrophic engin failures. Stand-alone engine management systems are almost always the best answer, but wiring, learning the software, and the daunting task of building your first map keep most people away. EMS's system willl be available in a variety of plug-in-play models that use the stock harness and stock sensors. Base mapswill also be available for all cars with this plug-in feature.If they don't make a plug-in model for your car, the same ECU is available with a generic harness that you can trim to fit.
AEM's system is unbelievably flexible. While most systems require certain kinds of sensors, or can only drive certain kinds of injectors, the AEM system will take any input you want and give any output you specify, 60-tooth crank, four-tooth cam trigger, staged injectors, it all works. We brought a pack of five grumpy, hung-over techno geeks to AEM to find the systems' weak points and came up empty-handed. The only thing it couldn't do was run on Jacquot's new G4 titanium Laptop.
This system will be running at least one of our project cars soon.

Latest report I have is late February/early March for all versions and there are a lot of cars supported with the plug & play. My gut feel is this is going to be a biggy for import racers, Honda, Supra, RX-7s etc. Then again what do I know. Just a feel I have.

My gut feel is once AEM is able to deliver these ECUs there will be many shipped. I am pleased to see that this is supported by windows and we have technical support in the USA. This looks like a very full-functioned complex hardware and software. My concern is will AEM be staffed properly with competent technical support to support all these units that will be sold shortly. KDR tells me they will be going to a "install and tuning" seminar for this ECU. I was wondering if there is any other training available other than a seminar, maybe a self-study course using software or a video tape etc. Nobody wants to install a state-of-the-art ECU and mis-program it and blow their motor. This would not be good for them or the reputation of the ECU manufacturer. My main concern is getting it programmed correctly with all the fail-safe features to help eliminating the chance of blowing my motor again.

As you know, the RX7 is a has non standard type of firing, fueling, and accessories. This is why the Supra was done first, it is more common with conventional EFI operation. The RX7 has other things that need added to work all of the factory stuff properly (I.E. Oil Metering Pump). So, it will follow Supra (closedly behind). If all is well they should be available mid March time frame.

From what I know, at this time AEM's current plan is to only have the seminars. AEM is expecting the seller of the AEM units to support on installs and tuning issues. It's the same way with Haltech, that's why they are worried about big GB because they are unsure if the seller is capable of support the quantities of units they sell.
Just from what I heard.
