It has a ton of features most are shared with Hydra but it has others i.e. while tuning you click save with the engine running and it saves it without having to shut the car off and save it.
AEM FTW!

a full hydra is will actually run you a lil over 2K, worth the price though.. but dezod is running some good deals on the aem ems w/ some initial calibration on it, prolly the lowest you can get on a standalone

I am lost on that statement as well. I have been moding my car long before I heard or read about Descendent. Why is it when a new company comes out everyone jumps on them thinking they are the best *cough* ZPI Racing and TT. Two companies I was impressed with at first but when I came down to it they let me down and I couldn't do business again with them.
Don't get me wrong Descendent seems good but I just wasn't impressed with their turbo kit or their intake manifold.
Like I said before the shop in GA knows what they are doing and he mentioned to me going with a sequential, which I would have done but when the price went above 15K it went out the window. They have corporate sponsor so things I wanted to due and can't is just pure funding. I am still doing almost everything I wanted to with my own money minus the six speed sequential. My build will more than likely cost around 20K if not a little more when it is all said and done.

decedent seems good, their race car features a lot of stuff that they sell. I have heard different theories on their manifolds though. I have not personally looked into them though to really place my thoughts. Zpi had good brain washing skills, their products sucked ***** ( most of their ____ looked like it was made at home, or would fit at homemadeturbo.com. I am curious man you gotta explain your self. Not bashing just interested in what you know or have been told.

I made the mistake of getting the non UEGO but it didn't actually matter my AEM Wideband UEGO is connected to the 0-5V analog input on the ems and it reads 100% accurate readings from the wideband.

BlackKnight, in the first post you mention a 38mm Tial wastegate and a GT3582R .60 a/r 56 trim compressor / .78 a/r 84 trim divided turbine.
Are you going to use 2 38mm wastegates or only 1?
If it's only one then you need to find one bigger than that; 44mm Tial for example!

The turbo is a GT3582R .60 a/r 56 trim compressor and a .78 a/r 84 trim divided turbine housing the manifold will be a top mount twin scroll twin 38mm wastegates.
Did you catch the AEM a/c fix for the 05-06?

The A/C fix has been working for a very long time. I am posting on Dezod's thread about the A/C and maybe I can help in some way. Maybe Dezod's fix is better and easier than what I did.
Either way you will be rocking with the A/C working no matter if it is Dezod solution or the solution I made for SCIONGT35R. I can guarantee you that!!!!

In fact, the stroker kit along with the twin scroll turbine housing and divided manifold should make you feel like you are spooling a T3/T4 instead of a GT35R!!!!!
I would be very careful on the rev limit on your engine since you added stroke to an already long stroked engine.

Depending on my power curve, shops recommendation, and I don't want any higher than 7k. I really want to keep it at the factory rev limiter. The shop is balancing everything even further than BC did, we are going for .5 gram if not closer.
