AEM v2

I was looking into this the other week and I gathered that the AEM can't control DBW unless you do some heavy modding. There's a video on youtube of someone doing it but looks as though he's pulled the unit apart and installed all sorts of extras.

 

The AEM just uses stock sensors and has no real fail safes if the engine was to let go as far as I know. Syvecs is a far superior ECU and if this is for your big build I'd say Syvecs all day mate. And this is coming from an AEM v2 user

v2 does have engine protection features btw, but if you are investing serious money into an engine then I'd go for something like Syvecs, AEM infinitiy, motec etc, V2 is quite basic in comparison.
