Proud New Owner...

I am the proud new owner of one of these things...

I got a heck of a deal and It should be on its way tomorrow!
Quick question tho. Can I just plug this thing in and run with it(assuming I have all the sensors that I need and stuff)? Or does it need to be tuned when I put it in.

great choice..

you will need someone to make you a basemap. it is a plug in type of unit, but ya gotta load on it a basemap to just run your car, with the specific mods you have. What sensors did you get? AIT, and map sensor?

I just ordered it I didnt get any sensors yet. Any one I should go with. Its just gonna be chilling at my house for awhile till I get all the stuff I need.

[Swifty1638]

well, I'd get the air intake temp sensor, and the 5 bar map sensor. I know, you could go 3.5 bar map sensor, but last i checked..they costed the same. If you plan on running higher psi, get the 5 bar. Other then that, i'd say you are good to go.

Nice can you buy me one to?

[scheides]

Yea, you should just let that chill in my eclipse until you need it/I will let you have it back!

Seriously man, nice work, and oh yea, screw you!

Go with the 3.5 bar unless you plan on exceeding 35psi. The resolution is nice on the 3.5, the 5 bar is a great option, and for the same price, it is a great deal.
I would also suggest a IAT sensor as well for just the minimum's. Do you have a wideband?

[blageo23]

This is what my plans are...
3.5 bar MAP
IAT sensor
AEM wideband
Mistu 20G
Tial WG
650CC injectors
Already have the 20G and the 650s. Just looking at that list...OOO man! I need a new job! haha

[Thor06]

650's going to be enough?

650's are fine for a 20G.

Nice buy! I got a sweet deal on mine too.

I'm not too familiar with the AEM and speed density setups; are there limitations or issues with the 3.5 bar MAP beyond 35psi? I'm just curious as 3.5 bar = 50.8psi.

Jakey, 1 bar is 14.7psi. 1 bar is the pressure at sea level, so you have 2.5 bar of boost. The AEM sensor goes to 35.97 psi of boost, I believe.

You might want to rethink the AEM WB02 purchase, there are better units out there for less money.

[blageo23]

What would you suggest? I only know of the AEM and the PLX.

Gotcha, I was thinking absolute pressure.

I have a PLX-300, sweet display, LV output and straight very forward, about $300 or so?

[blageo23]

The cheapest one I can find on ebay even in the AEM UEGO 6-in-1.

[Shane@DBPerformance]

Man, I had my used one for sale...

The resolution isn't really any different between the 3.5 bar and the 5 bar. Both are laboratory grade sensors. You can scale the 5 bar to whatever you want in the AEM itself and because of the precision of the sensors, the resolution loss in voltage is insignificant from the 3.5 bar to the 5 bar.

The newer AEM gauge type wideband is out, it now reads down to 10:1 AF. The older ones only read down to 11:1 AF, which isn't quite rich enough for a lot of turbo cars. We sell them for $279.99.

[blageo23]

Where do I buy the sensors? and about how much do they cost?

How about any place that sells GM parts?

And get a PLX wideband 02. Goes to 10:1
