Which tuning device should i use?

I need some suggestions on what device to use (adequate vs overkill setup)
I don't know if s-afc is enough or if power FC is overkill so can you guys help me out?

here's my setup:
-stock twins (still sequential but thinking non seq soon)
-intake
-downpipe
-midpipe
-no cat
-exhaust

just need advice on what to use on a bpu setup

Power FC is never overkill. It's quite possibly the best thing you can buy for your FD, since it gives you the tool to tune your car to whatever mods you have now or in the future.

It depends. Many people are happy with your setup with a Pettit ecu. You can buy them used on the forum for around $400. I would also strongly advise a boost controller. Or you can get the PFC and have it tuned.

The S-AFC is worthless for the FD. BTW, I hope you aren't driving around with your car as is right now. Also, why are you going non-seq?

I have the S-AFC and I attest to the uselessness.
