Hey guys I'm a new member to 2gnt but I've been on dsmtuners for a while now.

I recently purchased a AFX ECU, here's my review:

Alright so I received my AFX ECU today (7/2/2013).

Let's go ahead and give it a review I thought for all the members here.

Ordered on 6/6/2013 and received on 7/2/2013 and installed 30 minutes later.

Now... the pics :rocks:

First I wanted to show off how well he packaged the ECU, because, these things are knocked around left and right on FedEX trucks we all know that:



And opening...



So I found this note on it and read it...



Turns out it arrived somewhat 'broken' but rest assured they said in nice cursive writing it would work.



So time to try it for myself

Granted it's a 120F degrees in Phoenix, I have no power tools, I felt like hitting up my neighborhood Loopers performance center. They did the install in 3 minutes flat.



3 minutes later she's in! So now to see any differences in rev limitor, performance, anything...

So here was the Rev limitor BEFORE the AFX install:



And sadly this was it AFTER:



Yes, it was the same. I know the website says "he's no longer able to change the rev limitor" but I was hoping that was just some technicality he had to list for this 'bad ass highway ECU' that I spent $563.68 on.

It looks, acts, and feels like a 'regular ecu.'

All in all I'm a little disappointed, not sure what I paid for here. Nothing feels different so far. Maybe later? Anyone else with a AFX ecu please chime in.

Just wanted to post this for everyone hear to see how long it takes and the whole process from opening the package to install :notgood: for the money IMO.

Shipping: 1/5 (took forever, even with Fedex)

Price: 1/5 (Not sure what I paid for here, arrived some-what broken and no gains from my butt-dyno yet. I've read other posts and they said they "NOTICED IT INSTANTLY."

Overall: I wouldn't have bought this mod. My nitrous kit was cheaper and it gives me 75 horse. I don't feel anything with this ECU. Heck my MSD ignition wires gave me a more power from my butt dyno than this.
