AEM standalone or hondata?

[casperGSR]

need some input guys and girls... gotta upgrade the ecu and I've narrowed it down to two choices and i was almost certain of which one i was gonna go with but now i'm having second thoughts... The two I've been looking at are the AEM engine management unit and the hondata s200 with boost capability, datalogging capability and hondalogging software. Now price wise the hondata setup would run me about $950 or so new and the best price I've been able to get on the AEM new is $1295 (until late when GSR said he would be able to get it for me for i believe he said $1100)... either way the hondata would save me a little money... I've heard nothing but good things about hondata and rightfully so since they specialize in honda... now AEM I've heard good things about but only from a few people, not to say I've heard bad things cause I haven't, I just think more people have the hondata setups... I don't care about spending the extra couple hundred dollars, I just wanna get the best setup for my teg. So, give me whatever feedback you have on either one of the setups. FYI, I'm gonna be running 11/12 lbs daily driving and 17/18 lbs at the track once i get some stronger axles.

actually i goofed on the price cause i forgot to include that i would need to get the P28 ECU with the OBDII connector which I think is aroung 450 so the hondata would actually cost a little more... but regardless, need everyones opinions.

I have played with AEM's software a little and it is very interesting and i was very surprized how much you could do with it, I am not formilier with hondata, only from what i have read about it - it seems good but I would personaly rather go with the EMS, but then again i have never used hondata...

both are great, ask your tuner what he feels more comfortable with
