i think the limiting factor with them is that they use the std ecu and afm?

Indeed, go for aftermarket ecu with them and they are alright, Linkage for the throttles a bad design too.

It should run on the GM ECU and air flow meter. Just run it as it comes.

If you have chance of them cheap then go for it, you can run them on standard management but can then upgrade to standalone management at a later date

what utter bollox about the ecu's!
map's only as good as your mapper!
what ever your mapper maps most is easiest to use for them.
if it's not what the usually map it may just take a little bit longer.
also bollox on the jenveys/qeds having the best flow rates i'll think you find rollerbodies top it, even at power bodies out flow the equivalent jenveys.

i had a set on my x20xev, ran fine with not bad power through standard ecu, threw kms management got it mapped and changed the car completely as you would expect,
if there cheap enough get it put it on then start saving for standalone and mapping while enjoying the gains youll get with just having it on
