if you're serious about making power you need a standalone. The stock gauges can be replaced with a digital dash similar to the aim unit.
I still don't get why you guys are so hung up on keeping everything stock. The value of our cars gets lower everyday. Pretty soon they'll be priced like a civic. It's just a car. If you want to make power and go fast, the stock **** needs to go.
How much power are we talking here? I didn't think a 32x32 map was really necessary, but then again I'm new to efi tuning. I agree though, the car is nothing special mechanically... Is there any option for traction control with the AEM and would it be possible to keep ABS (or are there any tunable ABS controllers out there)? I like ABS, and would like a tunable traction control that doesn't bring the car to a stop when the tires chirp. I like MS because there is alot that can be done with it (well, for a 73 mustang at least), the software is free and the hardware is cheap. I was even reading about an RPM based TC system that will cut either spark or fuel if the revs climb too quickly. Personally, I'd love to keep everything stock working but wouldn't be heartbroken if I can't when the time comes to build my car.
