Need help with a PowerFC? Everyone on this board can help you. Not so much for other ecu's. Anyone that suggests to a newcomer to the forum not to install a PowerFC on his FD that isn't involved in the tuning of their car, is simply giving bad advice. thewird I completely agree.... PFC's are excellent ecu's. I've seen ton's of fd's running 450+ on them with no problems. |

I've been running the Apexi PFC myself for about 5-6 years now. Don't get me wrong, the PFC is GREAT for entry level applications (twins running under 400whp) and can definitely support what the majority of FD owners are looking for.
However, once you jump into the realm of singles and higher horsepower there are much better options. Myself, personally, I'll be switching to a Motec (M84 or M800) this fall. People will say that you can totally tune a PFC at well over 500whp, but the difference between the ECU's boils down to how smooth and in-depth everything is. There are many subtle inputs that the PFC just doesn't recognize, where the Motec can. If you're on a budget the PFC is probably better suited, if you're willing to put in the cash for "quality over quantity" than I'd get a Motec (M84, M400 or M800 series) or Haltech (Platinum Sport series). i appreciate ur post |

You'll have to mod the downpipe too once you modded the manifold.
