F-con Vpro vs AEM infintiy
Hi, im about to tune my evo x and thinking which ECU to go for, the new F-con Vpro for gtr35 & evo x or the AEM Infinity . Besides the tuner which ECU itself is faster ?
Mods as below:
Buschur racing 1BAMF 2.2L shortblock
kelford 272, 264 cams
Power division value spring and retainers
Power division racing Valve also power division
Gtx 3076r turbo
MAP1000cc injector
Map screamer pipe
Jun headers
Tomei titanium exhaust
thanks

The stock ECU has plenty of features that can be utilized through either open-source or Accesstuner software for your setup. Even in professional racing, a good amount of Evo X race cars are using one of those two.
That said, if you still decide to pursue a standalone option, the AEM Infinity EMS is one of the best systems out there with a ton of features and insanely fast processing speed. The F-con is outdated EMS technology when compared to the Infinity and other systems like Motec's M800.

The Accesport does come with a series of off-the-shelf maps that are separated into 3 stages based on your level of modifications. They are conservative but will allow you to run them safely without forking over the cash for multiple tunes. People complain about the OTS maps but more-so than not, it seems they're not running the right map or trying to include parts that the maps weren't intended to cover. Nonetheless, you can still get a full tune through the AP once you go past the level of modifications the OTS maps cover and save them on your AP.
I've pursued this route personally and my car makes excellent power, drives smoothly, no random codes popping up, and gets pretty good MPG's relatively speaking. There are some stick threads on here comparing the features between open-source and the AP. Open-source has more features than the AP (like full-throttle shifting) but the AP is a pretty compact and nifty datalogger that you can use for additional gauges (pretty much view any parameter the ECU already uses). Both will allow you to save multiple maps which is great if you run various fuel types and boost pressures. You can also have different maps for different purposes. For example, when I got tuned by Cobb SoCal, they gave me high boost, low boost, economy, valet, and anti-theft maps.
I considered the Infinity myself but it ultimately came down to a cost/benefit ratio and there just wasn't that many added features in the Infinity over the AP and open-source softwares to justify the cost. It does have cool things like Flex-fuel capability, finer ignition control, and the ability to utilize multiple widebands for individual cylinders but all the sensors, hardware, fabrication, etc. to fully use all of those extra features got to be insanely expensive and just wasn't worth it for my road and track application.
