I don't have one but I don't think an NA max would benefit much, if at all, from an Apexi Super AFC.

On boosted cars they help a lot because it can lean out the fuel curve at 1000rpm intervals and it lets you monitor and adjust a whole lot of other stuff...

"adjust a whole lot of other stuff.. ? The only thing you can adjust is the mass air flow signal that the ECU sees, which fools the ECU into thinking more or less air is coming in, which then alters the fuel supply.

It's worthless on a stock fuel map EPROM program and a Maxima with basic bolt ons. It's only worthwhile for forced induced vehicles using larger injectors and general fuel supply programs that are not tuned specific to each vehicle.

I'm pretty sure....

it was only the Super ITC(ignition controller) that wasn't working on Maximas.

Cheston should get on here and explain why it doesn't work.

I don't have any specific, but we talked about it. He said don't get it.

no need for it since you're running a wet system, so you can dial in your fuel supply with different sized jets.

dry kit with stock injectors? those suckers are close to being maxed out (static).

strap it on a chassis dyno; most will have a wideband o2 sensor so you can read if you're running too rich or lean with / without the NOS. With the AFC, adjustments can be made to the injectors - more or less fuel.
