FWIW- the standalone guys with DBW and the EFI are doing fine without a separate DBW controller...

I have no idea why you would fool around with the AEM or piggy back stuff when there are two perfectly good solutions. 1) Charlie to flash the ECU and 2) Being the EFI to control things yourself...

Props for wanting to reinvent the wheel. Lord knows I've done it a few times myself--- but I enjoy the process. Sounds like that's not your cup of tea, so perhaps you should go back to solution 1 or 2. Charlie mentioned that in a previous post as well...

Best of luck,

Phil
