    At least this thread has shown that's it's not a surprise I'm debating which direction to go - reliable OEM, or future proof AEM...seems 50/50.

    AEM vs Stock ECU - Honda J35

    I'm using the P2R water neck and as a result i need to find / make ports for the engine water temp sensor - and the thermal temp switche(s)...the two on the outer are manufactured to give me enough room to drill and tap - one for engine temp and another for a temp switch...So i dont really have...

    AEM vs Stock ECU - Honda J35

    How so? In reading the AEM documentation- I would just pick an available low side (there's several available)- and use it to trigger a ground to a relay once the coolant temperature is at a certain temp - and rpm's above a certain range - it accomplishes two things I really want - which is...

    AEM vs Stock ECU - Honda J35

    as dumb as it may sound, just the fact that i can use the AEM to turn on both radiator fans at different temperatures is reason enough to spend the extra money. Cleans up the wiring, cool that i can play with the software, etc. Is that worth the price of a tune, eh, idk.

    AEM vs Stock ECU - Honda J35

    I scored a brand new AEM for a deal I couldn't pass up...I don't even have the car running yet, and am debating using the AEM or using a stock modified ECU that i purchased from @Kraut_n_Rice. Motor is stock for now. Negatives of the AEM that I can see - cost, no ODB 2 port on the AEM. needs...

    Downsizing truck

    was curious what copilot would say: Short answer: Based on current U.S. fuel prices (≈ $4.15/gal gas and $5.21/gal diesel) and 2026 Silverado fuel economy data, the 3.0 Duramax is not cost‑effective for most buyers unless you drive very high annual mileage (20k–30k+) or tow frequently. The...

    Meals for large groups

    Costco cooked pulled pork in a few large crockpots, hamburger buns, and a crockpot of warm bbq sauce. Couple big bags of salad...paper plates, plastic forks. Pick foods that are gluten free...i.e, the pulled pork, bbq sauce, and sald should be, (just not the buns). Tacos good too, you just...

    It's summer so show us your boats, skis, kayaks and floats.

    Grandparents had a 45-foot trawler that I was lucky enough to fish on throughout my life (up until age 30 or so) - many trips to Catalina, Conrado's, fishing tournaments for Marlin, Dorado, Tuna, etc. I think that's little me with my dad (or my brother) in the photo. Pipe dream is to own an...

    Old School 2 Seat Alumicraft Rebuild

    Making good progress. Ezra's fab work is absolutely amazing. He's been great to work with and I'm looking forward to the finished product. He's also going to do the stainless exhaust on the car....I highly recommend anyone wanting fab work done to reach out to him. Hoping to have this home in...

    Amplified performamce mid engine project

    It looks like you have perforated flooring in your car...FWIW I met someone in the dunes and he swore that was the main reason he didnt have cooling issues with a mid=engine, with a windshield, with a low mount radiator like yours.

    It's Saturday May 9th 2026.. What is Everyone doing this weekend?

    We have a good amount of dirt roads at our house, and most of them on inclines...Rain during the winter months creates small annoying ruts. Once a year or so I rent a heavy duty skippy to flatten them all out.

    It's Saturday May 2nd 2026.. What is everyone doing this weekend?

    Only major complaint is with (and almost all of these smaller tractors) - the 3 point hydraulics in the back are not powerful / you can't say lift the back of the tractor up...meaning, the weight of the attachment is the only push down force - versus say a Jon Deere 210 that has pressure at the...
