It is in english yes. I got mine in 2 days from Japan to Canada. Said it was shipped on that Monday morning and I had a slip in my mailbox when I went home for lunch that Wednesday. Figure that. I cant get anything out of the US in under a week.

All PowerFC's are in English, period. The only part that's in Japanese is one settings menu, and it's just the "enable/disable" answers that are in Japanese. Easy to figure out.

As far as I can tell, there are NO differences between Japanese and US PowerFC's. The manual is easily and freely available online.

Ebay Japanese PFC here for about 3 yrs with no problems. I had a commander too, but it was stolen so I replaced it with an FC-Datalogit.

Be sure to PM Dai Oni for a price before you buy from ebay. He got me mine and it was the cheapest price I could see anywhere including on ebay.

I just pulled the trigger on this. Looking forward to getting rid of that 3K hesitation and finally being able to get an exhaust

I just got my PFC today, amazing service. Hooked it up, car runs great. Came with the base map which looks to be good on my car. I didn't cut any wires and she runs smooth as hell.

I did nothing. Just plugged it in, started it up and let her idle for about 15 minutes, then shut down. After about 20 minutes I took it out for a drive and eased into max boost (to make sure it was actually the stock map - didn't look at the map yet) and it ran great.

I bought off ebay the 17th, they shipped it the 18th, i got it today. That's service.
