AEM EMS install question
First of all, don't tell me to do a search, because searching for **** on honda-tech never works to my advantage.
I'm considering putting in the AEM EMS instead of my hondata now, and I was wondering if its similiar to Hondata, where you have to solder a chip into it? I'm not an idiot. I just never really read into something that I didn't plan on ever buying. But, now I'm considering it. Does it replace the factory ECU?

Re: AEM EMS install question (E Swift)
no soldering involved. You plug into your stock harness. Load your base map make adjustments and wallla full standalone that never needs to burn a chip

You take out your stock ecu, and put the AEM EMS in. As simple as that. The stock harness plugs in to the AEM unit and a serial cable goes out from the unit to your computer for tuning purpose.

And how much do these usually go for? I'm asking because if I call the shop and tell them to put an AEM in, I'm wondering how much they'll most likely probably charge me.

they should only charge you for tuning.
edit- Viren (b18bturbo) has some kick a$$ deals on the aem right now. Lowest I have ever seen.

No, I don't work there. I'm just having a **** load of stuff done by them right now, and am very satisfied with their work usually. They worked on my car last year too, and did an excellent job.
I just can't believe its taken 2 weeks now, and still no cable from Hondata to plug into the labtop.

I just called them today, and they said that they ordered a new chip and emulator from Hondata, and should take 3 days to get here.
They didn't have any non-vtec AEM EMS's in stock, so I couldn't get one right away.
