My opinion is that this is my first car with a KS in it, and I've never had a lick of problems in the past even with cars that are much, much stronger than the maxima. It's all about being able to control the fuel mixture and with the SAFC II, I can do just that.
Like FSM says: KS is a safety feature. (Like seatbelts, never needed them up to this date... still, its better to use em 'cause there are blondies out tHere driving against red.)
