Best engine tuning/ management systems
I would like to start getting into tuning so I can fiddle around with my laptop in the car
I wish I had the money to buy an AEM EMS or something like that but I am looking for a low cost system
I was looking into hondata and it is 295 for the base s200 system and 180 for the Rom v.3 so I can tune it myself and I was curious as to what other systems there are out there
what will give me the best bang for the buck, user friedly that is simple and will allow me to tune it myself in the car
any links and prices are very appreciated

the s300 is a little more, but has many new features and is easier to use... Check into that. It all depends on your amount you are willing to spend and what route you want to go... cheap vs expensive; easy vs difficult.. good luck.

yeah, if u get it installed, you can plug in your usb and labtop and start messing around. Most shops install a base map for you and you can alter and adjust it. It's fairly easy, but it helps when you know what your doing.

You can get an emulator, which plugs into the chip's socket and has a small memory bank. To that you can hook up a USB cable and mess around with it real time.</TD></TR></TABLE>
do you know where I can purchase one?
