Blue & Silver VAFC 2????

Does anyone know where I can get the Blue & Silver Apexi VAFC 2.

I ordered 2 from different places, and they turned out to be the Black ones, and I need to blue one to match ll my other stuff.

I found the VAFC (orginal) in Silver, but I can't seem to find the second version in silver.

If it does not exist, will there be a big disadvantage to using the orginal version instead of the second edition?

I have a P&P head, reground cam, built engine & turbo to install, and I would like to tune it as best I can. Using the AVC-R, and the VAFC (2).

Thanks Guys.

I wouldn't say that. They both have different strenghts and weaknesses. But I will attest, after owning both, the the Emanage is a more powerful system, providing you keep spending the money on harnesses for the added support.

I did the VAFC2 because of the screen built in, and at the time didn't need a bc... not that i do, i look forward to installing my Blitz EBC next week. should be nice

The only real advantage I can see to the Greddy stuff it the ability to tell the computer wht size injectors you have (if you have upgraded them). I do plan on upgrading my injectors, but how will I deal with this upgrade using a VAFC2?

Does it do anything to compensate for injector size changes? If not, how does the system handle larger injectors?

Uhhh yeah....you can retard timing w/the emanage. Can't do that with an AFC.

Ok so you are saying the best thing to do is:

Emanage, and what else? Also, do you need a laptop to use the Emanage effeciently. Sorry--> Slowly learning everything there is to know, piece by piece, obviously tonight is gonna be fuel management.

from what i understand (still learning about the two) that the emanage is the better choice of the two, definately if you are going to build the motor...you can do more stuff with the emanage than you can with the safc....it costs a lil more, but it is worth it....optoisolator has it installed in his car...

Madwheel mentioned something about an EBC? is that the same thing or does that control something completely different.
