Power FC Question?

I am going to purchase this setup but am wondering what I need to order? I want to eliminate the mass air flow for good. Also, how does this compare to the XS piggyback set up. The people I am dealing with keep puching that setup on me. Anyway, I noticed that all the fast evo's in the latest Sportcompact are using the Apex setup. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks,

well it depends on what you want to do I will be going with the Ljetro which retains the factory MAF which has a price tag of about $950 or you can go with the D jetro which gets rid of the MAF and has a price tag of about $1600 you also have a Boost control option which is somewhere around 300 bucks (nobody knows as far as I can tell) and you have the Commander Option which is about $350 so we have :
Ljetro $960/ Djetro $1600
Boost Control $300
Commander $350
------------------------
ljetro = $1610
Djetro = $2250

many people are making good power with the factory maf so unless you are planning on running some ridiculous amount of HP I would say go with the L-jetro...

You should be able to get the Commander and D-Jetro version for $1800 or so.

Commander but no boost controller. I should have a price tomorrow for the boost controller, but I've been told before about $300.

Pricing for the boost controller is $400 suggested retail. This should be $350 or so street price.

Also, a local shop where I purchased mine has one D-Jetro with all the necessary hardware and the Commander for $1595 (no boost controller). Send me a PM if you're interested and I'll give you all the info.

I think the Power FC boost controller works on the L as well, although I've recently read a few post that claim the boost controller is not very good.
