AEM EMS, one of the best if not the best for the price range.
there are others out there but the price doubles and finding a tuner gets harder.
examples: Haltech & MoTeC

Are you using the AEM rite now? If so is it difficult to play with

I don't have an R.
Play with an AEM EMS... Why not leave it to the tuner to set it and forget it?

Hondata S200/S300 or AEM EMS or somthing similar.

your motor is mostly the same way it came from the factory. i doubt you will see big gains that would make changing the ECU worth the money. the factory ecu program is pretty damn good.

i gained some mid range and about 5whp from 6-8500rpm with my hondata s200. i gained more with bigger injectors since the stocks werent cutting it after 185whp.
