How’s that? Actually a bad idea at anything over about 5psi, and less than ideal even below that.
The point is the Guardian EI system is probabley an attemt at a one step up idea from an FMU. It contorls fuel and not spark for FI That is not to say it is the best way, It just means they use a rich fuel system to cool cyl temps to try to stop pre ignition. The difference is it learns from the o2 sensor all the time, if it is placed right and functioning right. An FMU can only compensate for the boost it "see's". for more info go to
http://www.cybernationmotorsports.com/ and go onto the forum, they have an explination of the system in the forum under Guardian EI
The AEM is a good system for steet vehicles I am just noteing that the tec 3 is better for spark curve. Anyone who whould like to upgrade for more performnce in the future may just wan't to start with a crank fired ign.
It All comes down to money. You want to know what is cheep and can work go with the Guardian EI, But it may not be good to you forever. ($500 aprox)
The AEM or similar products are very good tuneable systems that also have feedback self learn systems and carry a good history of reliability and safety in the right hands. This is probably a good choice for most systems you install b/c they are relitivly easy to use and are fairly cost effective in terms of labor and base price. They come "plug and play" for the nsx. ($2000) aprox

Crank triggered systems are posibly the best but do take more work to set up and they have a higher price tag plus labor to install the triger ect. ($2600-$2800 aprox) They to have feedback self learning programs so can adust and protect accordingly. see
