Default Best ems for 1990 civic si

I know old schools arre for 1 thing old. but i wouldnt give my car up for anything. anyway i have a b16 in my hatch and i have a turbo kit also. im planning on running a inline pro headgasket and block guard this year so i can continue saving for my built motor. but i want my motor to last for the whole year and i dont want to run the v-afc hack againg becasuse it sucks i couldnt boost over 7 pounds without leaning out even with the 450's in it. so i want to hear what some of you guys think about different ems systems and what one is the easiest to put in my hatch. also i know zdyne goes right in but it dosent offer all that im looking for i want to but my ems once and be happy so what do you guys think.


P.S i used to be turboedef9 until i lost my password and honda-tech has yet to e-mail me my password so i appoligize for the trail user status.

I have used alot os systems, And I Like the Zdyne alot. Who cares about data logging, I use a wide band O2 for tunning.
Hands down the Z-dyne.

You can get a OBD0-I conversion harness and run the 30-1000.

hondata is kewl but im looking for something thats a true stand alone system like the aem or haltech...the thing that apeals to me about the aem is the plug and play easy install with the obd-1 conversion. if anyone has a buy going on right now for the aem and a the conversion harness let my know asap .

Well AEM says that their ems is plug and play but let me tell you from first hand experience it takes just a little more work than plugging it in and going. It takes a lot of work and research. Check out their ems forum at aempower.com
