The Power FC itself will work fine (AP Engineering) but you will need a different adapter harness, Banzai Racing supplies it. You can run the AP Engineering PFC without rewiring the trailing coil, and the default basemap is different on it than the FD PFC.
I wouldn't buy this AP Engineering unit unless you get a really good deal. You're better off getting a used FD PFC off the 3rd gen forums and then buying the harness.

The AP is a modified FD PFC with a patch harness to install in an S5. To install it in an S4 you will still need our S4 PFC kit. Typically it is far more expensive to buy the AP PFC, it will not come with the sensors required, and ususally does not have a Commander.
Our S4 PFC adapter kit will allow installation of the less expensive FD PFC or the S5 AP unit.

Fd PFC is available new for as little as $800 (if you shop) + our S4 kit with sensors ($315) = $1115
Or you can pick up a used FD PFC (which is what the AP is anyway) for as little as $300-$500

I would post a WTB ad in the 3rd gen forum for a used FD PFC. The PFC's don't fail unless somebody makes a wiring mistake and fries the box. then get the Banzai kit. you should be able to get the whole thing set up for about $1000 then if you get a used PFC in the $700 range. Then you can buy a Datalogit laptop interface if you choose to. that will allow you to more easily swap maps out or do self tuning if you choose to do so.
