Info Needed B-4 Install

[bfgracing]

After one year and not being able to find someone here in SC to install my unit it looks like I’m going to have to go with my original plan, install and learn the hard way. First thing first, I need all of the heads up that I can receive. Now to all of the question that I have for you gentleman.

1. Will the LM1 wideband work with AEM software, if so can you provide information on the wire connections?
2. What Map sensors are using, GM, AEM have one available (include part numbers please if available)? Target boost 20psi
3. What spark plugs are you using?
4. Last call, do any of you know anyone here in the upstate of SC that can dyno tune with the AEM software?
5. Is there anything that I am leaving out?


Current mods:
Cold air intake
3” exhaust turbo back / no cat
Agp wastegate
MSD tach driver
Greddy E boost controller (removing)
Turbo timer (removing)
Stage 1 (removing)
Target boost 20psi

Can someone please offer some pointers?

What I'm I asking wrong that no one is willing to provide info?

so your putting this on stock turbo?

1.) the lc-1 will work with the aem.....dont know how the wiring work on it tho

2.)most people use the aem 3.5 bar map sensors and the rage adaptor......some people use mopar 3 bars......not many people use the gm's

3.)spark plugs are personal preferance......i would suggest the ngk4306's or the iridiums 1 step colder

4.)contact TurboTune Home Page on tuning it down there......he is a pretty good

i would seriously re consider a aem ems install on a stock turbo car......its not really worth it......you wouldnt gain much hp.....gas mileage would be slightly better....

First, thanks for the reply. My plan is upgrading to a bigger turbo soon (this year). My car is my toy now. I may drive once a week. Other mod plans are in the works (time and money). So you think I will only have minimal gains using the stock turbo? I thought that I had seen where people were gaining 50 hp, hmm.

no i mean as compared to say a safc there will only be minimal gains.....with as little mods you have i would seriously suggest spending the money on other stuff first and a ems in the end.....get used to the car before you just do it all out
