SAFC II vs. VAFC II

With nitrous, you want to ADD in more fuel for detonation insurance. Especially with dry kits. With wet, you typically run a little bit leaner, but nothing to worry about. But for the automatic, I had just added in 1% fuel correction under 3.5k and 2% over 4k to just make sure I wasn't going to lean out far enough to cause detonation during nitrous.
If you're stock, or just have an intake and/or a cat-back, it isn't really worth getting it since your A/F will still be pretty close to stock.
And who the hell needs the VIAS butterfly valve? I removed that and gained some good power up-top. I guess it's a 3.5 thing.

Been debated quite a bit lately. Maybe you should dyno and post the results to end the debate.

Anyone check out the APEXi AFC NEO? I saw it up on their site and it seems like they're saying it can do everything both SAFC II and VAFC does? any merit to this?
Damnit, i wish they just made a harness for our cars. . .I'd really hate soldering all that crap in and frying my ECU...

Explain to me as to why a harness would be better?
There are only a handful of wires to tap in the case of these AFC's. A harness would be almost a waste of time/effort.
I went into it w/ absolutely no soldering/ECU/wiring experience whatsoever. Armed w/ a soldering iron, solder, an FSM, and some extra wire. In the end myself and my ECU both came out alive.

mostly because I'm interested in plug n' play, easily reversible, and the fact i have no warranty sometimes makes me a little hesitant to just go at my only car with a wiring diagram off the net and a Solder Iron. i fry it i don't have alternate transportation
EDIT; well, Nothing lost, nothing gained. I'll nab one in a few paychecks and maybe luck out and be the only 5.5genner to play with one.
