Default good ECU?

what is a good ECU for the XB and where can I buy one? I keep reading about the AEM but can't find where to buy it.

As far as ecu's go I currently run microtech full standalone. My advice unless you have the time and coiN to spend leave it alone. I have 2,800.00 tied up in mine plus the time to have car retuned and make sure the vvti still works right. Not to mention the cost of wiring. Unless you run a full race set up, turbo + nitrous and need absolute control leave yours alone. How ever if you want to take a ride down that avenue I'll help you make it happen.

Hydra and Aem non sell anything specific for the 2008 xb. Dezod has been working on pnp harness but ecu connectors have been a pain. Boomslang also gave up trying to source out connectors. Dezod has tuned the Aem standalone on TC they also sell them. Unless you are going FI or crazy NA build this might be a bit over kill.PM Paul at Dezod, good luck.
