Jdm Ems

5230EVO · 10-28-2008, 12:05 AM

i came from an Evo, i see many Evo owners are using JDM EMS such as HKS F-Con V-Pro
and i have seen many Subie in JP also using HKS F-Con as their EMS, but how come there is no one in the US Subie community using JDM EMS?
is Cobb AP really that much better than JDM EMS?

AP is really a matter of people not wanting to **** with their tunes.

there really isn't a need to use a JDM EMS or something such as a piggy back like the HKS F-Con V Pro

Using Open Source or even an AP allow you to tune the stock computer with no issues, they have the same thing for Evo's and that works great as well. Along with that running the JDM ECU's on things like the ver 7-newer JDM Swaps with perfect ability to tune the stock ECU. On the older ver 2-6 the Apexi PowerFC is the ECU of choice for tuning.
