AEM, F/IC vs Apexi Neo, Looking for Upgrade info Options

[celica95-95]

Looking to get a AFC.. These are the 2 that seem the get the most talking on the net !

Or HkS ECU , Biltz ECU and other

Let me know what you 6th gen member think about these AFC ? HKS ECU, and other's ?
or if you have some in-put on other ones?
Some performance shop's are saying that a stand-alone is a better pick in the longer run!

Smaay where did you get your info from that the AEM FIC fights with the ECU too much....also which one..the -6 or the -8.....from what ive been reading up on the FIC is one of the few piggybacks that DOSENT fight with any ECU. Has to do with how it retards timing. Other than that it clamps voltage from the (MAF/MAP depending on the engine) and makes changes to the crank timing and cam timing WAYYY differently than most piggybacks out there.... Also has its own fueling maps for the type of injectors you want to run, and even has an O2 skewing program built into it.....so i would be some good to know info as to where you have met someone with the AEM unit that can attest with its tuning abilitites.....Everything i find is ppl mostly getting good results with it, and even still trying to experiment with it...Not to mention it has the capability to log from a wideband...show me a piggyback that can do all of those and ill give you a donkey lol...

Btw read your thread on the FIC and not to sound rude but sounds like you shouldve had somone else tune your car at that point....you still got it btw...lol wouldnt mind taking it off your hands!

As for the OP, i agree with ST205WRC. Personally if you have the 3sgte i would get a power fc or HKS unit since its seems everyone knows how to tune the two. But every other one mentioned is great out of the box loaded with more options than you would actually need. Brings up the point, that you should get an ECU based on what your needs actually are, and then compare which ones can give you what you want in the long run with their price...
