HAHA. Cmon now. I just had one in my hands for quite some time and I had a hard *** time selling it. Jap Parts Specialists always has them. Thats where I purchased mine from. There was one on ebay not too long ago for 850 for the Power FC and harness. I sold mine with Power FC, commander and harness. If you want one bad enough you can find one.

Even if you could get them I dont think there is enough support for them in the US. I could be wrong though.

True but I wonder how big the difference is between an FC and FD tuning wise.

Tuning is exactly the same for every Power FC equipped FC and FD. All Power FC's are tuned numerically in 20x20. Especially if the tuner can tune a Power FC for a FD then he can surely tune a FC. Simple as that.

Almost any real stand-alone EMS will smoke that Power FC.
You realize that the Power FC is basically a glorified S-AFC?
There is limitations on adjustment +/- 50% on fuel and ignition adjustments.
