Wondering if anyone here has used it or know of someone that has. I know the norm is to use the Apexi, but im currious about this seystem. All answers welcome....

mazdadrifter

used it on my first motor for a while. Kindof expensive, and I really didn't see any performance gain. I guess I was able to run more boost



I kindof like the idea of the s-afc better

How was it for tunning....i read that a autherized HKS dealer has to do it and i dont know of any around here. Is the Fcon V Pro better to go with then the S?

i think you'll want the fcon pro if you can get the whole deal with software, oh and its in japanese too

Missed my info a while back...



F-Con S is very tunnable by you. It now has a commander and with everything, harness/adapter, commander and F-conS it would be a little less them our price on the PFC.



F-Con S is a piggyback only...



F-Con V can be a piggyback or a Standalone



F-Con V PRO is a standalone.... Only tunnedable by HKS dealers (no problem for me, to get the software, but I cant just sell it)

Mazdabation

Oh so there is a V and a V-pro, didnt know that. So what one would the PFC be compareable to? The PFC wouldnt be considered a piggy back, would it, cause as far as i thought it wasnt. Same as the Fcon-S, I thought i read it wasnt a piggy back and was a stand alone that also had to be tuned by a HKS dealer.

F-con S is very much a Piggy back, about a year ago when the F-con S and commander were coming out, I talked to the HKS guy before and after the AUTO SALON as the shop I work out of sometimes.





How the compare. Hard to explain, but showing the F-CONS still needs the original ECU in the bottom right of the picture, V doesnt.







COMMANDEER sort of speak, but NAVIGATOR







OLD POS F-CON Offered only in the USA. I dont even think you can get it here anymore.





I guess as per HKS USAs site you can buy the F-CON V PRO, but they want some $COIN$



IF YOUR ONLY RACING NO NORMAL DRIVING I RECOMMEND THE F-CON V, IF YOU HAVE A NORMAL CAR AND YOU DONT NEED PERFECT BUT CLOSE TO IT, THE PFC IS FINE. IF YOU DONT MIND THE PIGGYBACK THE F-CON S IS NICE AND CHEAPER. MY HKS GUY SAID THAT UNIT WAS MADE TO COMPEIT WITH THE PFC AND I TOLD HIM IT WONT IF ITS A PIGGY BACK, SINCE MOST PEOPLE LIKE LESS ***** IN THEIR CARS NOT MORE.
