Your best way to go is I/H/E THEN AFC.

I personally would go with a NEO and have a shop install it in conjunction with Dyno Tuning. The only problem I see may be the wiring diagram's that show the connection points may not be compatable with an 07 Max, not to mention how the CVT will handle the added HP and TQ after tuning???

If it's got a MAF, TPS signal, and RPM signal, it will work.

I know you weren't asking me, but it's easy. Easier of you have a wb so you don't have to go to the dyno all the time whenever something changes.

How much are you willing to pay for said alternative package? Instead of jumping the gun, read up on all this type of stuff, see how it works, why it works, how it works best and how it would fit your set-up best and how it could be optimized....Or, Do this .

There is very little difference between the Neo and the SAFCII as far as our cars are concerned. Call Apexi yourself and ask them. I did. I was told the Neo loses the knock sensor the SAFCII has but adds a full color screen, 4 more fuel point corrections and has controls for VTEC engines. Of course they don't make the SAFCII anymore. That just means you can get a used one cheaper. It's up to you.

Yes that is correct you lose the knock sensor. and gain more fuel correction.
