You would probably gain a Tumor using that thing, and plus the weigh ratio would probably bog you down unless you had a Tornado Turbo Air Induction System.......but they don't come cheap, so save your pennies.

They have an adapter for that unit so you can bypass the Nissan ECU and use your own tuning

If I get that, can I still do an auto climate control swap?

you won't need in-car climate control. With this thing, you can control the actual weather within a 20-mile radius

That is BS, I tried it and my friend said it was not snowing on the beach.


But it seems to work with in a 100yard radius

Damn, how much does one of those cost? I just spent six grand on stainless steel muffler bearings, but I will DEFINITELY make this thing my next mod.

Just one question:

Does it allow as much adjustment as UNIVAC?

Looks like the Beta version of the Apexi S-AFC. After the install you would need to re-align your vehicle, I bet all the specs would be off due to the weight.
