Shopper Award

Allows user to install a Tesla Small Drive Unit (SDU) in any vehicle and unlock complete control with AEM EV's SDU Inverter Control Board (ICB, PN 30-8403) and an AEM VCU! This system provides full control of the SDU for programming torque curves, torque limits, regenerative braking, accelerator pedal response, drive-mode switches, and much more.

AEM EV's Tesla Inverter Control Board acts as a VCU expansion device that replaces the stock Tesla ICB. Once connected to an AEM VCU using the supplied communications harness, calibrators can program propulsion strategies and characterize inputs through the VCU using AEMcal software. AEM EV's SDU ICB was co-developed with Cascadia Motion, an industry leader in EV propulsion systems, to ensure the highest standards of quality and reliability.

Features:

  • Allows control of Tesla Small Drive Units (SDU) in a non-OEM application when paired with an AEM VCU
  • Programmable, direct replacement for Tesla SDU inverter control board (ICB)
  • Developed to maintain the highest standards of quality and reliability
  • Allows for customized control of torque and regenerative braking curves, torque rates, and motor spin direction via CAN to allow for Tesla Small Drive Unit installation in any desired orientation for retrofit applications
  • SDU board works with both front and rear varients of the Tesla SDU
Specifications:
  • Emission Code: 5
  • Product Type: EV Controls
Fitment:
  • Tesla
Notes:
  • The Inverter Control Board must be used with an AEM Vehicle Control Unit for programming and controlling a Tesla SDU. This system is designed for conversion and motorsports vehicles with Tesla SDU swaps. It will not control a Tesla SDU in a Tesla OE chassis.
Emissions:
  • 5 - This part is legal for sale or use on Emissions Controlled Vehicles, Uncontrolled (Non-Emissions Controlled) Vehicles, and Racing Use Only Vehicles because it does not affect vehicle emissions and is not covered by emissions regulations.

Who is AEM?

AEM is an aftermarket company and was founded by John Concialdi and Bob Sullivan back in 1987. The company specializes in providing performance upgrade parts for various automobiles. 

It initially catered to vintage vehicles and modified imports used for street racing. By the early 1990s, it has already established itself as a top modifier and has been chosen by racers day in and day out. 

Today, AEM has remained at the forefront in the industry and has since provided the best air intake products in the market.

Racers Choice

The company rose to success because the cars fitted with their products won actual races. AEM has been a brand synonymous with fast cars and has been used by import racing legends such as Abel Ibarra, Adam Saruwatari, Tony Fuchs, and more.

The Tradition of Continuous Innovation

AEM has always been a pioneer in setting trends when it comes to aftermarket performance parts. They were the first to offer a packaged air induction system. This paved the way for the 'do-it-yourself' upgrade for most import vehicles. 

They also pioneered the design of intake tubes with specific tube lengths and diameter, and coined the phrase Cold Air Intake when they saw the advantage of having cooler air for the engine.

Some other innovations they did were the conical air filters with built-in air horns, dual-chambered intake kits, a unique bypass valve that prevents hydro locking, hybrid induction systems, and electronically tuned air intakes. 

This shows how AEM has always pushed the boundaries of air intake design in search of more horsepower.

Tried and Tested

All of AEM's products are tested by various independent and 3rd party companies and prove that their products produce the power they claimed, which helps them cement their status as industry leaders.
