I have a 2000 Integra Type R with a Rev Hard Turbo kit. Everything else is stock. I will be doing these mods shortly.

Thermal 3" Exhaust
High Flow Catalytic Converter
Custom 3" Downpipe
550cc Injectors
AEM Fuel Rail
AEM Fuel Pressure Regulator
Dyno Tuning
Greddy Profec Boost Controller
Having a High/Low Boost seting of 6 psi (daily driving) and 10 psi (race applications)
AND EITHER --> a Hondata s200b or an AEM EMS


My tuner mainly uses AEM and is very good with it. However, they have tuned with tuned with many other systems just not Hondata. I have talked to people with the hondata and they love it. I am hoping that my car with idle as close to stock as possible and that it will drive like (or similar to) a factory installed turbo. Can i do this with the AEM and which system should I go with?

 

hands down aem ems. its more than hondata but well worth it.

 

Go for the AEM EMS and don't think twice about it

Sounds like you answered your own question. Unless you have access to a well seasoned Hondata tuner, I would agree with the other two and get AEM. Good luck.

if your tuner is good with aem just get the aem

 

yep... get what your tuner likes. the best standalone in the world isnt **** in the hands of someone who dosnt know how to use it

 

I was going to ask the same question. So you guys think the AEM is better then hondata?

I'm not a fair person to ask because I am partial to Hondata. I was recommending AEM based SOLELY on the fact that his tuner is experienced with it and not Hondata. I still prefer Hondata over AEM, but again, that is just a biased opinion.

Why do you prefer Hondata over AEM? will my car not idle/drive as nice with the AEM? or is the hondata just easier?

 

either system can be used to properly tune your car. properly tuned you shouldnt be able to tell which system the car has installed. its ALL about the tuner and what he is familar with.

 

Anybody on here have either setup? What are your thoughts?

 

I see you post alot about this. I would just go with the AEm only because your tuner has used it before and they should know what there doing.

 

I sold my Hondata for a aem ems and there uego wb works great!!! If you tuner knows aem go with aem!

 

Which system is better for being able to pass an Emissions Test. I am from the Chicago Area? Will I pass with either?

 

you wont pass with either setup

 

not true.
i passsed just fine.(untuned)
they dont even look at the ecu.

 

I used Hondata but it all depends what your tuner knows best...
