The AEM uses an older style solenoid (single) that connot keep up with boost changes as well as the newer ones on the market. This is why it did nothing for the drop off in boost. A lot of the better ones will use a dual solenoid. The AEM has no adjustment for rpm. Hks is not the only one with rpm adjustability, just the one I chose.
Sebz might have said it was ok because it was on my car when he tuned it. With that being said it did nothing to help with the drop in boost, so not sure why he recommended it. Perhaps because you already bought it.
Edit* The AEM is fine if your just trying to control boost level. Ie if your trying to go from 8 psi to 10.
Here is the AEM solenoid
