In Japan!
Soul Assassin had one for awhile that he was trying to sell.
In Japan, they make special wiring harness connectors for the FC.
If you were fortunate to get one, you would also need the commander to tune it.
I was thinking about getting Souls, but decided to go Haltech because of all the maps that are available for it.

yeah haltech is a better in performance wise...

but i just think power fc is very handy, esepcially with the commander

for power fc for fc in japan, since apexi never make one espeically for fc, some shop there just get the fd one and then change the setting or whatever... so that's why power fc for fc cost a lot...
about $1500 with commander?

well i think the power fc is alot diff then the haltech. one being is you can't go in and fully tune it, you have to have xs engineering do it. you can only tune the fc to a certain extent like some fuel maps but everything else is out of your hands. they won't give out the xcel software. unless you can steal a copy, which then it would be just like haltech. thing is power fc software is all in japanese, there is no english avaliable. the commander itself and that tuning you can do with that is in english but not all the hardcore goodies

thats why alot of people go haltech, because you have that power now to change all the goodies

for simplicity reasons, i told dave to buy soul's powerFC. the main thing about the PFC is if you don't like it you can always sell it and get a haltech later but if you go haltech first you are staying haltech due to chopped up engine harness.
