Standalone in Parallel with stock ECU

[fnkngrv]

My EMS is running all performance bits other than vvti. It was found at least suggested by some heavy hitters in the mod scene that there would be no benefit to moving vvti away from the stock ECU as it it very efficient and stable so for the most part is just throwing away money.

As for the OBDII it will light up like a Christmas tree if you plug in a diagnostic tool. There is no real way around it unless you were to essentially spoof the signals from another device. I spoke with AEM and they stated that they don't have a proven wiring setup that allows for the EMS to spoof the signaling to the port. The only thing that I have been able to do is turn off the CEL itself.

I can switch my VVT from stock to AEM, I picked up something like 5 tq using the AEM rather than stock, just another thing to tune. It wasn't a substantial gain but since my ECU can account for it might as well.

If I was running bigger cams I wouldn't have the stock ecu control VVT since it wants to advance the cam to 40* from 2-4k and some of the bigger cams will lose hp advancing that much.
