I use a Gems diff controller in my Subaru rally car and I'm very familiar with their products. The cost of the X ecu is 1,800 sterling (roughly 2,600 USD).

In regards to whether it will work on a US car, here is the response GEMS gave me:

As far as we are aware the only differences are in the Californian specific model which has an EGR valve and is tuned down. The rest of the RS models are all the same.

That's pro race gear. You wouldn't do that on your daily driver unless your pockets are throwing up cash. I know I wish mine were.

Looking at the software you can really tell the AEM systems were based of the Gems.

It's a really great unit! Impressive for sure. The price is high but really depends on what you're aiming for in your tuning.
