Justin Bieber Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 It's there to save you when things go pear shaped A Syvecs may save your engine but I'd rather rebuild an engine than have the ecu turn my engine off at the worse possible moment on the road, it is designed purely to keep your engine safe, not you.

Nodalmighty Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) EMU is similar in spec to the above but only has 6 sequential possibility (but does support direct coil) only has 1 can interface and 1 serial, 2 egt, 2 knock, wide band LSU 4.2 built in, e85 fuel blend interface, Blue Tooth, single vvti, DBW, traction control (no ABS required), nice logging interface, built in dyno mode (which is remarkably accurate) and a whole load of other stuff. It's not as fast or as fancy as the above but it does what it says on the tin. The main USP of the EMU is the price. If I wasn't an ECU Master Dealer I'd have fitted an S6 to my car as I hate AEM on a cellular level. Lyndon.

Wez Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Software looks like a newer version of AEM Tuner, which in my mind was terrible compared to the older AEM Pro which I really liked. AEM Data looks looks very much like SDATA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SFS Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Some more reviews and info about the infinity. Hope Gpro wouldn't mind. I haven't read everything yet, but I pretty sure more people would be interested in this ecu. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?762346-Aem-infinity-ecu-users http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?653517-Aem-V2-Infinity-10-or-Pro-EFI http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?761666-Infinity-6-8h-(P-N-30-7106)-VS-AEM-Infinity-8-(P-N-30-7101)&highlight=aem+infinity http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?702375-AEM-Infinity-user-reviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you require TC on a BPU then i don't think a supra is for you Some people prefer to go fast not sideways I prefer to drive without the TC but it is very easy to get it to go sideways even on a stock car. So you see no benefit on a bpu car at all ? I would imagine it would be useful in wet weather and on a track. It can get pretty slippy if someone nudges you off the racing line, there are different levels which allow different amounts of slip. I'm not saying you should drive with it in granny mode Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying you should drive with it in granny mode Except from in the wet i personally never had issues with traction in both my BPU supras auto and manual. I guess i agree with using it in the wet but not in the dry, it defeats the object of fun but if you are running 600hp+ then yeah TC would definitely help!

I'm not slating this ECU as it appears to be very good but different people have different views of fun. Going faster round a corner as opposed to going sideways to some is more fun, me personally I prefer sideways even though i'm not very good at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellonman Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) Ditto! +2 but remember this is not AEM as such its another smaller company made the ecu and AEM are making and selling it to the best of my knowledge. everyone on here was banging on how good a fic was for a hybrid a few years back, so i would give it a couple of years then see what people are saying Edited April 10, 2014 by mellonman (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Thanks for the Review Gpro , looks like a nice piece of kit and after looking at the software , it is very tempting to give mapping a go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tricky-Ricky Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 Only just seen this...certainly stirred up some comments...my 3 peneth, the Infinity sounds good but on a similar level to quite a few stand alone, as for running down Greddy EMU and similar, i also was running the EMU very successfully with a big single, also self tuned and was making 550BHP with no problem, so as previously suggested you certainly don't need a stand alone to achieve a good level of tune, i would also say that IMO its actually more difficult to get a piggyback to run correctly in tandem with the std ECU than tuning a stand alone.

Pete Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 If you require TC on a BPU then i don't think a supra is for you Get you Mr Pro Driver. Maybe as a toy car you're 100% focused in every time you go out, but for my daily driver in all weather conditions I regard my Racelogic as an extra insurance policy should conditions be a bit more slippy than I expect on roads I do not know. Oh....and a decent ECU on a BPU car can produce very favourable and reliable results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Out of curiosity Do these use a MAF & MAP sensor as modern engines use today or what is the setup or maybe car model specific? I read it uses a MAP and the OEM BMW M3 MAF sensor Cant find anything online Do OEM manufactures use VE tuning or pulsewidth-based engine management systems?

Calling an ECU "useless" when it's been proven to work perfectly well for high power applications says more about the capabilities of the end user than the unit itself.

Ian C Posted September 19, 2014 Share Posted September 19, 2014 Ugh I just had the mispleasure of re-reading this. personally i can't see another ecu being better then the infinity (Price and performance) at the moment but that is my personal opinion everyone is entitled to there own. The article is just plain facts nothing more nothing less. And comparing an EMU to a standalone is a bit stupid So yes the EMU is useless when compared to a full standalone ecu :blink: Seriously dude, that's in the same sentence. Yes i agree hence why i stated don't attempt this unless you know what you are doing Strongly agreed with, shame that hasn't been followed. Also looks like this article really got to some people Only due to issues with the veracity of the content... i only wrote this article as there is hardly any information online on the aem infinity Well luckily there is some more sales literature now.

Guest Aleo24 Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Sorry to bump an old thread but im looking into the AEM infinity. Hi just curious with regards to the O2 correction. Can you post up a screenshot of the Fuel correction against the Lambda target and actual lambda. Im curious as to how much correction it needed.

Can you post up a screenshot of the Fuel correction against the Lambda target and actual lambda. Im curious as to how much correction it needed. As with any modern ECU, the amount of correction would depend on how good the main map is, the closer you get it before enabling feedback the less the ECU has to do to trim it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aleo24 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I'm aware of how it works. I'm curious as to how much his setup needed as he was running from a basemap and would like to see a log to satisfy my curiosity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
