upgrade the ecu? Aem's Ems?

If you saw my old post: http://www.acura-cl.com/forums/showt...threadid=72178 it talks about how I f-ed up my cl's ecu. I've been looking for anyone who upgraded there ecu, upgraded there tranny, looking for a cl in the junkyard.... NO LUCK
So heres my dilema, I can buy a new one for around $500 or I can buy an AEM ems for around $1300, I figure while Im putting a new one in, I might as well upgrade. Is it worth it? I don't have any other major preformance upgrade, will it still be benifical? Whats the deal on these things?

I have been wondering the same thing , I'm new but not fuck'n stupid.. I don't think many folks have messed around with the upgrade!!!!!!! I know on some cars you can get a huge return with the chip, but I've been surfing about, and can't find people with this upgrade on a 3.0 ???
Anyways good luck, Dood. ..

The automatic trans will not work with the aem ems unit. You'll have to run a seprate ecu, or swap to 6sp with 6sp ecu.
