Default outdated aem 30-1000

sadly i have a brand spanking new aem 30-1000 thats been sitting in the closet for many years from a project that never happened. Trying to go for another build but just found out that my box is a dinosaur. my question is should i try to sell this and get something more up to date or just work with it. Ive been searching but every one seems to point out how outdated it is.
im shooting for 300+ vitara build.
current set up
-d16y8 longblock
-75mm vitara's eagle rods
-supertech valves, springs, retainers
-y8 intake mani
-rc 550(have these laying around)

to keep 30-1000 or not to keep?
thanks!!

You can call AEM, and see if you can exchange it for credit for a new one by way of their Buy-back program. I did this for a friend of mine recently.

Good idea... I wouldn't run a 30-1000 on my vehicle.

They gave more in the credit doing the exchange program than anyone ever would pay for a 30-1000 in today's market ANYWHERE.

Turn it in, pay some money, get a new unit. Get tuned. Be happy.
