You have the know how to fully tune a stand alone from scratch? All your fuel maps, timing tables and blah blah blah. Considering the "aem ems"(not aem ecu) costs around $1525 new not including all the sensors these days I'd say eprom/dsmlink anyday.

1) price. I think $1500 is conservative...i thought they were > $2k.

2) tuning an AEM is miserable. you'll buy it, install it, then won't be able to get your car to run. then you'll take it to a local dsm expert, spend a few hundred bux, then decide you shouldn't have bought an aem.

no offense, but from your posts that i've read, a SAFC seems more up your alley. if you want to step it up, go to dsmlink.

If you have the funds, I would get an AEM. I have tuned just about every ECU and piggyback out there, and prefer the AEM for street applications. I have had one in my daily driver for over 1.5yrs now, and once you map the car it is set it and forget it. I can help tune it if you need, I know it inside and out.

For a newbie, the DSMLink is dead simple.
