I can get my hands on an AEM for cheap but it's a pnp for a honda. since it's a standalone it should work fine for the 7m right? also, how hard do you think it would be to wire a harness for the AEM and my engine harness?
Ok, yea, I was looking at the pin-out diagram for both ECUs (Honda and mine) and it looks like a headache to try to wire everything correctly. I always hated and still do hate electrical stuff with cars...I might not bother with it...but...if I can talk him into letting me use it and see if I can wire it in it first before I buy it....tempting.
Yea I'll get a hold of Aaron and see what he has to say.
Depending on which model it is for was only like 1000-1200 new. Basically about what a used one goes for. You can find v2 aem for 2jz used for like 1200-1400 with everything and pnp. Just a example. Best bet is to start off with the proper unit.
Also you wont be able to drive to the tuner so it would have to be towed unless you know how to tune maps from scratch. Which isnt something you can learn over night.
He says it's brand new...who knows with out actually connecting to the ecu. I spoke with Aaron today and it sounds like a headache to me to wire up...I would also imagine AEM not giving support for it since the ECU was "designed" for a Honda and they already make the pnp for the 7m.
Made my decision and will go with the pnp for the 7m.
The Honda ECU is cake to wire up. Ive been using them for a long time now. Check out my vendor section. I was using them on IS300's over three years ago.

I assume you want to use it on a 7M right? If you do it your self it would be worth it. If you are going to pay someone to change the plugs for you on the engine harness I would just buy the 87-88 AEM and call it a day.
