Any reason why it has to me an EMS or are you talking about An Engine Managment System or the brand EMS ?
Mircotech LTX-8 Works well with the 4AGTE but so will most ECU's if your tuner knows their stuff

Fully programmable management is always going to do the best job, and there's a few out there that will be easily capable. As ROLLA GTi said, mostly it will come down to your tuner, and how much of his time and effort you can afford. The tuning will be more instrumental in how well your engine performs than which ecu you choose, provided you spend the money the get something that meets your requirements. A cheap computer and tune will be just that, and keep in mind what you've spent elsewhere on a 4AGTE, you want to make the most of that don't you?
That said, my vote goes to MOTEC, mainly cause its the only one i've had any experience with, but i'm damn impressed with what i've seen from them. But, something more basic may do everything you need it to.

How much do you have to spend?
And remember, you get what you pay for!

Hi there Joyride, would you mind giving us a rundown on the various features, that persuaded you to go the EMS Stinger route.
Were their any specific features you were after.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
regards Chuck.
ps. Yep, I am looking for an ECU for a 4AGZE-turbo.

There's a fair few boxes that'll run the engine okay, but the best is Motec.
I've picked up a few second-hand M4's for between $1500 - $2000.
They'll use all the existing sensors, and are easy to tune.
