i'm looking into getting an hks computer (ecu) for the car.. was gonna go with the apex-i, but heard the hks eventhough its smaller has more tuning capabilities then the apex-i, ust doesnt look as "pretty".. have any of u guys had any experience with this ecu?

HKS Super AFR does have alot of strong points compared to an AFC, but also some downsides.

The AFR has more adjustment then an AFC, 11 points, plus six in idle range (independant from the other 11), Idle Correction, 50 rpm increments and 1% adjustment at each point.

The AFC I believe has 8 adjustment points, every 500 rpm's. However the AFC does have the output graphs which you can use to look at, but I just look off my gauges and see the same thing.

According to the website, they just lowered the price on the AFR so make sure if you contact a company about it you let them know of the lower price now so they don't quote you the old price.

hks doesnt make a full blown ecu for our cars, neither does apexi i dont think, those are full japenese companys, and we have chrysler engines, i really dont think there is a big market for those ecu's in the 420a world, i dunno though, i could be wrong.

^^^^^You miss read the post silly.

The Apex s-afc and HKS afr are both piggy-backs not full stand-alones.

i meant hks afr.. had ecu on my brain.. lol.. but thanx for the info.. i think i'm gonna do the hks, cause i have gauges already, and i really dont care about the asthtics of the unit itself.. just what it can do=)..

as far as a pic of my car.. well i cant figure out how to include a pic so that it is in my sig all the time.. if u wanna tell me how i will put it back in=).. i also dont have it..cause lots of people from other sites make entire threads bout how my car is rice and i was sick of reading posts bout that..

you won't get any flack on this sight for that. you'll only get flack if it's too big. everyone on this board except for a few a very respectful towards others. not like the other boards. you car looks nice so don't worry if anyones says anything cause it's yours. not theirs. You like what you like not what they like.:thumbsup

you miss read the post silly, a ECU is different than a piggyback fuel controller ;)
