AEM Plug and Play EMS - Guide

AEM AEM Plug and Play EMS Why bother tweaking a factory ECU when you can easily replace it with a performance based system? The AEM Plug and Play EMS replaces the factory ECU and takes over from there. With thousands of engine-tuning combinations right at your fingertips, the AEM EMS gives you nearly limitless control over your ride's performance. All this tuning is done easily through your Windows PC that lets you load new settings and parameters. The AEM Plug and Play EMS works perfectly with other AEM' Performance products like the Serial Data Stream Gauge.

Features:
  • Custom made to replace your specific vehicle's ECU
  • Delivers complete control over nearly every engine parameter
  • Includes user-managed setting templates
  • Stores massive amounts of data for later review and updates
  • Backed by a 1-year warranty
Notes:
  • Some adapting hardware may be required for installing the AEM Plug & Play on non-factory forced induction vehicles
  • Substituting a stock ECU with a performance-grade replacement invalidates remaining vehicle manufacturer’s original warranty
Plug & Play Technology Installs in Minutes - No Wiring Necessary
Since the EMS is designed to work with your specific car, it can be installed in minutes with no need to modify your vehicle in any way. Each EMS unit has been designed with a specific car in mind, meaning it will plug-in to the same port as your factory ECU, without an adapter loom or external jumper harness needed.

Uses All Factory Sensors
Every EMS application has been specifically designed and tested to use the factory sensors that your car already has. There is no need to mount different sensors or attempt to install different crankshaft or camshaft trigger wheels. Of course, you can replace any sensor you want. With the AEM EMS, it's your choice!

Fuel Table Automapping
With our new Fuel Automapping software, you can tune your engine in literally minutes! All you need is an accurate air/fuel ratio input and then let the ECU do the rest. You have the ability to define the target air/fuel ratio at 357 different Load/RPM points.

Base Maps Included
AEM pre-loads the Plug & Play EMS with base maps to help you get started. They're what you need to start your car, get a basic idle, make your A/C work and more. AEM puts hundreds of hours into base maps on stock engines, and even drives them back and forth to work in traffic as final tests.

Optional Built-in UEGO (Universal Exhaust Gas Oxygen Sensor)
The Plug & Play EMS is available with or without a dual-wideband UEGO sensor, for exact reading of your air/fuel ratio. With the AEM UEGO unit, you get the fastest, most precise air/fuel readings possible, for accurate tuning and safeguarding against mixtures that can damage your engine.

Excellent for Performance/Modified Vehicles
What about heavily modified cars? Planning on putting a Big Turbo on your Si?, How about a ProCharger on your Mustang? Check out AEM's forum pages at their site, www.aempower.com, where the company and other users have made all sorts of maps for most common modifications. They probably already have a fuel map that accounts for your new part.

Programmable Traction Control
Finally, a way to put that power to the ground. With our programmable traction control, you can get the 60 ft times you need. No individual wheel speed sensors are required, and you get to program the allowable acceleration rates based on RPM and Gear.

Onboard 512kb Datalogger
No more racing with your laptop in the passenger seat! With the 15 channel, high speed internal datalogger, you can finally get the data you need to take it to the next level. With access to over 400 internal operating parameters, and featuring logging rates of up to 250 samples/sec per channel and "loop" logging, you'll practically be buried in data! Additionally, the logger can be activated based on a cockpit switch, RPM, car speed, load or throttle thresholds. The supplied AEMLog professional data analysis package supports math channels, multiple file & channel overlays and histograms. Or, you can race with your laptop hooked-up in-cab, using the adjustable speed PC datalogging.

10 Cyl Sequential Fuel Injection
The AEM EMS features 10 sequential fuel injector drivers. Any injector can be configured to fire in any order at any time. Also, any injector can be configured to run as a fully sequential staged injector of any size. No shortcuts here, the staged injectors are fully sequential and you can define exactly how much fuel they deliver via the 357 point Load/RPM table.

16 General Purpose Outputs
Tired of trying to decide if the ECU should control your radiator fan or your fuel pump because you're short on outputs? The EMS offers 16 dedicated General Purpose Outputs (GPOs) that can activate most anything. Both Low Side (switched ground) and Hi Side (Switched +12v) GPO's are available. Each is activated based on user defined Load, Temp, TPS, RPM and Speed thresholds. Alternately, they can be activated by dedicated functions like "Fuel Pump", Cooling Fan", "Gear Dependant Shift Light", AFR Warning light" and so on. Need even more GPOs? Every unused Fuel (10), Coil (5), Stepper (8) and PW (2) driver is also available as an additional GPO.

7 Definable Switch Inputs
Want a 2 step launch control? Want to control your A/C?, want a dry nitrous setup? Want them all at the same time, with in-cab control? If so, you'll need lots of switch inputs. The EMS has 7-more than any other module or ECU replacement.

Electronic Boost Control
You won't need to buy a piggyback boost controller ever again! The boost controller built-in to the Plug & Play EMS is state of the art. It can drive the factory or aftermarket boost solenoids and can work with all boost levels. It can run in open loop (MBC mode) or full feedback with a 357 point boost target table. Not enough? The EMS gives you the option of adding a cockpit boost target override switch, or having the boost target defined by vehicle speed.

Soft Cut Rev Limiters
Using programmable stages, the EMS offers 5 distinct modes of rev limiter. With ignition retard, programmable partial cylinder cut of fuel and/or spark and full cut of fuel and/or spark, the combinations are limitless.

2-Step Launch Control
The EMS gives you the ability to define a secondary rev-limiter, commonly called a 2-Step limiter. With a user-defined RPM value and Cut %, you have the ability to tune your launch to suit the track conditions. Additionally, with AEM's definable switch inputs, you can use the 2-step without the requirement of wiring in a clutch switch.

Wet or Dry Nitrous Control
With the EMS, you have the ability to fully control your nitrous system, either wet or dry. The EMS features two 357-point fuel and spark maps exclusively for nitrous. This allows you to add any amount of fuel and retard the timing in any way you like. Add to this the ability to monitor your bottle pressure (with additional sensor) and activate your bottle heater and you have the ultimate nitrous computer.

Definable Knock Control
There's a reason why all new cars come with knock sensors and there is no reason not to use them. With the EMS, you can. User programmable knock thresholds and full control on the quantity of fuel to add and/or timing to retard, the EMS allows you unmatched ability to use these sensors to their full potential.

Full Idle Control
With support for both PW and Stepper Motor idle bypass hardware, the AEM gives you the flexibility to tune your idle just like the factory. It features adjustable feedback rate, programmable hi idle, timing and fuel trims based on idle speed and more.

4 EGT Inputs with Fuel Control
The EMS lets you hook up 4 RTD type EGT sensors directly to the EMS. You can log the data or set up a fuel trim based on your exhaust temperature. This gives you the safety to run big boost numbers and only add fuel as you need it.

16/32 Hybrid High-Speed Processor
Utilizing an advanced 16/32 bit hybrid processor by Motorola guarantees the EMS will always be one step ahead even under the most demanding operating environments. AEM AEM Serial Data Stream Gauge Imagine, the work of 19 gauges all handled by one unit. That's right, the AEM Serial DataStream Gauge monitors critical data on everything from boost to RPMs. Basically, if there's a sensor, the AEM Serial DataStream Gauge monitors it. Through a convenient PC interface, the AEM Serial DataStream Gauge lets you set the minimum and maximum values for each sensor. If critical levels are reached, an alarm sounds to let you know. The gauge fits into standard 52mm pods or mounts remotely. Check here to see a complete list of AEM' Performance products designed to bring out the powerhouse in your ride.
