At the end of the day you should select a tuner who has greatest experience in the ECU you would like. Or, if you know someone that you want to tune your car, he will make a recommendation in what he feels he can tune correctly (if he is honest).

Whether is uses MAP sensors of AFMs is does not matter at all, if the tune is right there is no noticable difference when you are driving.

PFC is a great ECU especially for a street car does exactly what you need but personally there are other ECUs that can do things better. For example, I chose a Vipec V88 one of the reasons being it has knock control which I think is essential (my opinion).

Read every post but do not take any of it as gospel, people have opnions (sometimes very strong ones) and that over shadows a lot of truths and factual information. Do your research by talking to different tuners and make a decision based on what you want out of an aftermarket ECU and weighing up the pro's and con's of each.

Good luck,

3. Make sure that ECU at least is semi-common so if you have an issue later, you can switch tuner without much issue

Thats the main reason why ill be going power FC. I know if i hit a snag some1 will have had the same thing happen.

Nistune/remap same soft of thing. Extra $200 in getting nistune setup but its great had it in my 32 gtst and will be using it in my gtr

I tune for a living and am happy to do all 3, NISTUNE (3 or 4 week, but mostly s13), WOLF ( about 3-4 week) and POWERFC (about 6 -10 week) BUT for your application POWERFC for sure. It has the best aftermarket support ie can be tuned anywhere. The wolf V5 is not a bad piece of kit but after doing quite a few i think the extra cost is not worth it over a PFC.

PFC FTW

agreeing with Trent ^ Power FC is great for your application, i have run a power FC on a 300kw GTR with nismo AFM and was great, the only reason i went to autronic was cause of AFM's on a single set up, and cause at the time i couldnt find a d-jetro but would certainly look at one now and am actually considering going back to power fc just for the ease, and more than anything the handcontroller gibves you everything you need on a simple display.
