I personally would go standalone, granted I run a MaftPro. It will cause you headaches at first to get it running correctly and daily drivable but in the long run less headaches.

That's my 2 pennies.

What turbo are you running? 30psi on a big turbo like a 61mm-67mm is prolly going to be more than those injectors can handle.

Also both of those would need to be tuned correctly.

Standalone is my vote.

Ya but what size is the wheels? Like a mp t70? OR 61mm or gt35?

Ar is just how big the housing is for the wheel. Simply put. A ar.70 housing on a gt28 is going to be a lot smaller than a ar.70 housing on a gt35.

If your running The high of boost levals your gonna want to go with standalone so you can control your ignition timing. PLus the price on AEm ems series one just dropped due to the relase of series 2. Plus with a standalone system you will have alot easier time doing a complete tune. And also its just more fun to have a laptop plugged in while driving to fuck with everything!
