What do the tuners in your area tune?

How much money do you have to drop on a system and get it tuned?

The S300 and EMS are equal for the most part, but EMS has some features that hondata does not. I know this will start a arguement, but I don't care, I just prefer hondata over EMS. Also some users have had problems with EMS etc... I'll let everyone else explain that's had first hand experience with EMS.

You just opened a big can of ****

What does your tuner recommend? What's your setup?

<Edit>
And my first hand experience with AEM EMS has been great. Had a couple problems on Nissans and Subarus but worked through them

AEMPro has a little more than a digital dash You can find AEM EMS more in your budget. Xsi-t has a 30-1000 for $850.00 shipped right now

I totally agree.That pretty much eliminates 95% of all aem problems and the other 5% every system has.
