Out of those three choices you listed the AEM EMS would be the best.

Uberdata if you have the knowhow or know someone who does it's the cheapest IMO, next would be hondata, It's the best investment I've made so far. Well worth the ease of mind knowing that you can get a safer tune vs fmu/vafc route

that may hold true for an all-out race car, but for a reliable fast street car you don't nessesarly need anything more than uberdata/hondata.

do you even know the full effects of a vafc hack on the ign maps of the car?

if you did then you would relize how BAD that actually is
