AIM is popular because it offers many of the features of Pro systems (Motec, Pi/Cosworth, Bosch, etc.) at significantly lower cost. The VBOX systems have significantly better video capture and functionality than AIM.
There are pro's and con's to them all.
The K-line output from the Boxster ECU is far too slow to really capture meaningful data. It has many of the right channels. TPS for instance would not even remotely show you accurately where you were full throttle on corner exit. That why additional sensors are the way to go, or taping the signal from the TPS in this case.

Thanks Max and great information! I'll do some more research on those options.
My highest priority is driver development, then chassis development, vitals and video quality.
I don't want to spend too much, but I also don't want to throw good money into a system that doesn't advance my goals. Does this change anything in your opinion?
