Default computer help

alright so im torn and finally gotta decide on WTF i want so i need some advice

first i got a SAFC cuz i planned on just doing a minor boost setup
sold that got a SMT6
sold that got a smt7
sold that got a MAP-ECU
and now i sold that


i gotta decide on which i wanna run so its time to look for help
socks recommends i just get a F/IC and run with that since its AEM im sure theres TONS of support for it
ive thought about a megasquirt just cuz i would be able to run everything BUT theres tons more work

any other opinion/thoughts? mind you this SHOULD be a very high boost setup...not your every day kinda turbo

I have AEM FI/C. It seems to be working well. I just need to figure out how to tune it better.

Ok, if i would of remembered that KFX did a plug n play megasquirt for my accent. I would of went with them. Just because their is no wiring involved. Maybe this will help you.

It runs a bit more.
They were giving me awesome support when i was going to buy one for my 1.5t setup. but that fell threw and forgot about them having a pnp ecu

I think either will work well. The MS obviously gives you more control, and honestly if you're looking to run high boost and make big power I would go with the unit that gives me full control.
