Again, I disagree with just about everything in this post. Look at your proportion argument again, it doesn't make any sense numerically. There are fewer EMS' than OEM ECUs, so when an EMS goes bad, you're more likely to hear it? I've heard of maybe 10 OEM ecus going bad out of the millions in use, and maybe 3 or 4 EMS' going bad, out of maybe a thousand in use. I'm sure AEM has made inroads against their quality control problem, but it's something to be considered.

The EMS interfaces with all the stock sensors, well, that's right, they're stock sensor, so the ECU surely has the cabapibilty to be put to use the same way...

close-loop mode integrates all that sensor input, and makes corrections. You have MAP/IAT/PA sensor adjustments being constantly performed.

Yep, and pretty much all of those features are overkill on your typical mild turbo setup honda.

Like I said, these are just tools waiting to be put into use per applications needs.

It's the same with any high-power build, you can save money, make lots of power, and be reliable, but you can only choose 2 of those 3 options.
And I'm sorry, but I disagree with that in principle, cost and reliability can be supplimented by skill.
