Hey guys, I was wondering which ecu I should get. Brand new to tuning so I wanna make the best choice for my car. I’ve read many discussions that the chrome is a really good for simple tuning and as well as a bargain deal, while the aem being a standalone is gonna have better options obviously, but Ive seen many people say to go with the chrome instead of your not looking for BIG power. Probably somewhere around 450-500whp is fine for me.
Here is a list of mods I’ve done to my 97 vr4:
-Wesco 92mm pistons
-Forged rods
-3sx 3rd Gen lifters
-Cxracing side mount intercoolers
-k&n air intake
-TEC 15g turbos
-Stage 3 clutch set
-aftermarket boost gauge
-wideband afr gauge
-BC coil overs
I’m planning to upgrade the turbos probably Kinugawa or Arashi’s td04hl 20t’s and get me bigger injectors as well most likely 550cc and a bigger fuel pump. I’m gonna be mostly running pump only and so I was wondering if the AEM is is worth spending the extra $1,000 or if the chrome is just as good for my goal.
