:frown: if this is the best answer, EMS it is. :wink:
If your car is an OBD1 model(91-94), I agree with you! The FIC was designed for OBD2 cars, but will work on OBD1 units provided you have solid data from an OBD2 car to upload to the FIC.
I use the AEM EMS in my 92 because it's the best system available for the OBD1 model cars. I will be using the AEM FIC in my 1995 because its the best system available for the OBD2 applications, and because the car will not be pushed to extreme power levels.
Okay, my question still has not been truly answered. I’m looking for an answer similar to that of which Autowave gave me when I asked about the AEM EMS. Autowave told me that with an AEM EMS, not only will you get a more reliable setup for your mods, but you should also see a HP increase of anywhere between 15 and 30 HP to the wheels. With that being said, can anybody give me the same proven results using the AEM FIC????
Note: My car is a 99’ with a CTSC high boost kit, exhaust, headers and intake.
hold on!!! so what people are saying is AEM EMS for OBD1 and AEM FIC for OBDII?
Yes, but one disadvantage is it can't *advance* timing...just retard it... (Unlike like a full stand alone EMS)Dave, the new AEM FIC is a piggy back that will control fuel AND timing..

Also it doesn't have a speed or gear based boost control feature which comes in handy in higher HP applications...

unless you are at something like 13:1 compression with bigger injectors and need to pull timing, and fuel.
