Default AEM Fuel / Ignition Controller (F/IC)

Has anyone tried this piggyback system?
It looks pretty good, hopefully it is more user friendly then UTEC. They are soon to come out with a plug and play harness for the Z.
it seems like a good buy especially for the price. How does this compare to UTEC?

From reading the info in the link, I'd think this would be more competition for the EU than the UTEC.

Unlike this unit the UTEC gives full control of timing and does not retard timing from what the ECU is doing.

it's essentially a plug and play EU with a nicer interface....nothing to write home about IMHO. It's not in the same class of mod as a UTEC IMHO

Plus it doesn't have A/F feedback. I would rather spend the bucks on an HKS F-Con iS. Or the V-pro if you've got the cash flow.
It would still be interesting to see how good it is. Anyone tried it yet?
