Jellybean Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Out of curiosity is anybody running the AEM? Might be a few members running it for a while now, do you recommend it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellonman Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Gpro is running one but swiftly got mkivsupra.neted for posting about it as it looked to be a sales thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 That's the route I'm taking in the next month or two. Lots of decent hardware upgrades from the series 2. Loving the can bus BTi gauge which is much like the toucan for the syvecs. That's the route I'm going. I believe a custom loom is currently required. I'm NA-try though so GTE might be okay.

I wish there was a 52mm syvecs gauge setup. I don't really want a big 'ol toucan on my dash, but as I want the info available I may be forced into it!

I don't really want a big 'ol toucan on my dash, but as I want the info available I may be forced into it! I thought the same, but honestly the Toucan is much smaller than you expect. I've managed to integrate mine well into the dash Much more oem looking than gauges Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mellonman Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 ? what are you on about? and yes I do have the AEM Infinity Didnt you fit yours then did a right up about how good it was then the mods got funny with the thread cos it looked like a sales pitch I cluld have swore it was somthing like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually they look a right eye sore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regarding mods getting funny, this is the first time I'm hearing this Funny how it sounded like a sales pitch, as I never offered or tried to sell one. My career isn't in cars or ECU's.

mellonman Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 ? what are you on about? and yes I do have the AEM Infinity This is what I was on about, would of thought you would have remembered the thread http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?306025-AEM-Infinity-ECU-Review/page2 Still its a good review Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 How you finding it GPro , Did I read on Supra Forums members had an issue when it was launched with Idle on cold start up bit I think it was since fixed with a firmware update Just reading up about it I think it just needs a Map sensor and the Fuel / Oil pressure are extra's for the fail safes , maybe a Bosch LSU What did you get in the kit? ECU and Mkiv Loom? I dont think it will control the stock twin sequential turbos , I will need to go TTC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gpro Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 (edited) How you finding it GPro , Did I read on Supra Forums members had an issue when it was launched with Idle on cold start up bit I think it was since fixed with a firmware update Just reading up about it I think it just needs a Map sensor and the Fuel / Oil pressure are extra's for the fail safes , maybe a Bosch LSU What did you get in the kit? ECU and Mkiv Loom? I dont think it will control the stock twin sequential turbos , I will need to go TTC My kit came with Mkiv PnP harness, map sensor, fuel pressure sensor, boost solenoid, air intake temp sensor, 12 position switch and wideband sensor. At a minimum you would need the wideband/Bosch sensor, the ECU can work with your stock map sensor. Fuel pressure is optional, but highly recommended for accurate close loop. Latest firmware seems to be stable, as far as I'm aware. This is the package I got. http://fsrmotorsports.com/component/virtuemart/?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=19&category_id=20&Itemid=87 but, this cheaper package should be fine for most users. http://fsrmotorsports.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=257&category_id=20&Itemid=87&vmcchk=1&option=com_virtuemart&Itemid=87 Edited March 26, 2016 by Gpro (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Thanks , the ECU did catch my eye when it was launched but it does not seem to be popular here across the board in the EU for some reason , few skylines etc run them Spec wise it does seem to be great value , is there any cool apps, software , gadgets you can use with it?

Justin Bieber Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Spec wise it does seem to be great value , is there any cool apps, software , gadgets you can use with it? If i had an AEM Infinity i'd use the video converter from gauge art to display all the gauges on my headunit, its a shame they don't support syvecs. http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?824489-GaugeART-Review Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignum Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Its all about if you can get a decent mapper to work on it, also don`t believe any of this self mapping bullshit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Thanks guys, it's dimitri from Greece who would most likely map it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wez Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 If the AEM gauge is CAN based it could prob be made to work with a Syvecs EDIT: same goes for the gaugeArt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jellybean Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Those gauge art gauges do look nice! But a little bit gimmicky I do like an analogue mechanical gauge , maybe I am getting old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 If the AEM gauge is CAN based it could prob be made to work with a Syvecs EDIT: same goes for the gaugeArt How did I never know about this previously!!!! I need this in my life!!! I'm 100% going this route with my infinity. I need a new head unit anyway. That's top notch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
