Having some sort of wideband + egt setup should be mandatory with an alky system or an upgraded turbo in my opinion.
I think the stock ecu does have some limitations once you got past a certain point but a 50trim doesn't warrant AEM EMS in my opinion.
Sucks that you popped your motor but having ivey tune your car I think is the way to go.

I'm not gonna go, took the weather forcasts advice and made alternate plans.
Anyhow, sundays is a church/family day for me, I try not to get distracted by anything else on sundays. Lets shoot for e-town next saturday....
I'm gonna try to break that 12.2 record....and try driving/shifting differently

Here's the thing, I watched my tuner do a couple of pulls on the dyno and everything was fine, no weird sounds or whatever. So, I would think that the alky kit was working fine. It's connected to the failsafe and everything. After my local research they seem to be the best shop around here.
