AEM or Syvec? That is the question.


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Does anyone have experience with either or both of these ECUs? I know the Syvec is very good, the new AEM ECUs also looks very good, especially now they've gone away from the Gems system. There's probably about £200-£300 in it. Want boost by gear, nos control all that good stuff:) the AEM has cool video overlay stuff with can be dropped straight in to gopro footage. The Syvec has fancy iPhone apps and I can get a programable touchscreen for it for £400 which allows change of maps and setting and well as multiple gauges. It even focuses in on a graph when it hit custom set parameters like oil pressure or diff temps. I think I'm talking myself in to the Syvec as I type:)

Syvecs would be my choice - did a lot of research into it when I built "The Bitch" and decided that Syvecs had the edge as well as a plug n play loom solution (was a year or 2 back) but never actually got round to doing it and sold her still running the Haltech.

 

I base this opinion on nothing more than my own research and what others running both ECU's have said mind - Dan my tuner preferred the AEM but would have been happy to use whichever I went for.

 

Don't think that helped you much though :lol:

I've been told Syvecs. Would have one myself if the cost wasn't unbelievable. Still tempted to one day get one, let us know if you endup getting one.

Don't say that, I'm putting the GEMS EM80 in the Zed running the LS!

It's running a whole new Chipset.

Syvecs :thumbs:

 

Does everything you need it to and more but does come with a heavy price tag. But should you be asking which is best, I'd assume money is no object :lol:

 

It will be in my shopping basket when I find a spare lump of cash lying around

The new AEM is a bit of an unknown but it does look good, plus Mapping the AEM wouldn't be a problem. In fact it looks pretty easy. Turns out that there's no real price difference between the two either. I'll see what price the Syvec comes in at.l:)

I'm getting costs for the Syvecs, think I'm going to go for it... Mainly in preparation for forced induction :)
