1) If you have a stock car and do not plan to heavily modify it,aren't familiar with tuning, and not willing to send it to a shopto tune for you: I would not advise going to an AEM.
2) If you have orare planning on light to moderate modification, I would suggest a piggy back fuel/timing controller (which would still require a working stock ECU).
My fiance and I both own 3000GT VR-4s. He runs an AEM EMS, and I use a Greddy E-Manage Ultimate. For daily street driveability, my EMU is far superior. It is easier to set up, cheaper, and simpler to tune.
If you don't NEED an AEM, just get a stock ECU. If you HAVE to have an AEM, supercarengineering.com also sells the AEM for $~1459. The owner is a great guy dedicated to bringing quality products to the 3/S community.
How bad is your board damage though? If the traces are still good, and additional components beyond the three-four tower capacitors aren't fried, you can try to repair it. I have the appropriate capacitors if you are interested.

I had the same coil quit firing on my TT. After a weeks worth of tracing wires, a finally settled on the ECU. I would have started with the ECU, but it had been rebuilt previously. After swapping in a known good ECU, it ran perfect. I purchaced a rebuilt ECU from a chain auto parts store and have not had any problems since.
